Foerstermühle

Foerstermühle, Fürth

Favorites  

Varied Architecture

Varied Architecture, Fürth

 S.Cunis Says:  Just walk around and look at the different buildings. From quite old to quite modern you can find many interesting views. Fürth is not very big, so you can cover quite a lot of it on foot. 

Town Hall

Town Hall, Fürth

 S.Cunis Says:  The town hall is built of sandstone, and gives a sort of massive impression, almost a bit like a fortress. 

Fürth Railway Station

Fürth Railway Station, Fürth

 S.Cunis Says:  The architecture of the railway station is in a way typical for Fürth. The fountain in front of it, with the centaur motif, reminds me of the centaur fountain in Altona, which originally also stood in front of the railway station. 

Königstraße

 AnnaLupilla Says:  Königstraße is the aorta of the Old Town. Along this street you find the city hall, Jüdisches Museum Franken (Jewish Museum of Franconia), Stadttheater and many shops. 

By the rivers of ... Fürth

By the rivers of ... Fürth, Fürth

 AnnaLupilla Says:  The Rednitz is one of two rivers that pass Fürth. The other one is the river Pegnitz. Rednitz passes to the East of the Old Town, Pegnitz to the South. Northwest of the city center, they both flow together and from then on the river is called Regnitz. A little complicated?
