The Fountain in Altstadt Square |
The "History of Braunschweig" Museum is located in the Town Hall and after my visit yesterday, I realised that I will have to return frequently to read up on the city's history from its founding in 1031, when it was known as Brunesguik.
My reflection in the chemist's doorway. |
Many beautiful half timbered houses have been rebuilt with the traditional German Gothic script and multicoloured patterns inscribed along the beams. I found one saying: "1960 Out of the ruins arises what the war destroyed."

Mole Update: Mr. Mole has now invited his entire family of 350+ to join him in frenzied crop destruction, the field opposite is now covered in tracks. My Swiss email partner thinks he has one in his vegetable garden, so obviously some have taken a holiday to Switzerland! I wonder if moles like Windparks, they don't like small windmills, the giant ones must upset their delicate ears and noses.
