Stein-ам-Рейн. Part 3.
we Continue to explore" городу of сказки".
We are on the bridge. From here we"ll go straight. There is the town hall square. In the center of the building with the clock @- this is the town hall.
It was built in XVI century. A long period of time it was trading house.
Now a Museum, the exhibition which includes historic city documents, symbols, and coats of arms of Stein am rein, a collection of weapons and armor.
At the town hall, you can observe an abundance not only of paintings but also architectural decoration.
the Drawings reflect the city"s history.
Near the town hall stands the house" У white eagle". Amazing that you can consider for hours. It is decorated with the oldest frescoes in town, established in 1520-30 years in the early Renaissance style. For the first time this house is mentioned in 1418.
I would Like to get the whole town to admire each house.
in the distance is the spire medieval Benedictine monastery of SV. George. It into XI century laid German Emperor Henry II. It"s a pity that we do not have enough time to go there.
In Stein-ам-Рейне can see a lot of houses built in half-timbered style.
the basis for the design in these homes serve as wooden beams, including diagonally. The spaces between them filled with a mixture of clay and straw, brick, and sometimes wood.
the Framing appeared in the XV century in Germany. In the twentieth century, this style is again becoming popular.
At every step there are small shops.
Traditionally, there are the Swiss army knives and a variety of clocks.
On the streets – almost perfect cleanliness, not to mention the lack of samples" наскальной painting".
And everywhere, flowers, flowers, flowers.
the Time spent in the tale came out, time to get back to the real world.
