[Germany] Nuremberg: "Beautiful Fountain" and "Frauenkirche"

#AbsolutelyFreeTrip The "Beautiful Fountain" located on the north side of Hauptmarkt was built in the late 14th century. The tower with golden carvings, which stands about 17 meters high, is particularly eye-catching. The city of Nuremberg was reduced to rubble during World War II, but the Beautiful Fountain was fortunately left intact. As a result, it is one of the few historical buildings that remain intact from before the war in Nuremberg, where many buildings were rebuilt after the war. "Nuremberg's Frauenkirche" The "Frauenkirche" (Church of Our Lady), facing the Hauptmarkt in the center of Nuremberg, is a Gothic-style church built by Holy Roman Emperor Charles IV in the mid-13th century. The facade, which is not too ornate, enhances the majesty of this church. It is one of the famous spots as a church that was beautifully restored after being reduced to a pile of rubble without a trace during World War II, and after the daunting task of rebuilding the crumbled building materials. The church's façade also features the oldest mechanical clock in Germany. At exactly 12 noon, the clock spins around as if the seven electors are greeting Charles IV. The Holy Spirit Hospital The Holy Spirit Hospital is one of the tourist attractions. The building straddles an island in the Pegnitz River, and the scenery is very impressive, as if it is floating on the river! It used to be a hospital and a nursing home, but now part of it is open as a restaurant. Frauenkirche Hauptmarkt 14, 90403 Nürnberg, Germany #Tourism in Germany
