Einige Tage Wandern am Main bei Miltenberg. Wunderschön im Frühling ! Macht den Kopf frei und reinigt die Gedanken. Kann man ab und zu gut brauchen. Deshalb im Moment spärliche Kommentierungen. Hol ich ausführlicher nach ! Versprochen !

seen from the Main Tower - The St. Paul's Church, built between 1789 and 1833, is one of the most important political symbols in Germany. Built for Protestant services it was the place where the National Assembly met the first time on May 18th 1848. Until 1849 the members tried to develop the first constitution for a united Germany. The resistance of Prussia, Austria and some smaller German states prevented this. The church was again used for Lutheran services. 1944 it was completely destroyed by bombing. After WW 2 it was the first structure which has been rebuilt in Frankfurt City. Today it's no longer used as a church. It's a place for several displays and events. The most known is the Peace Price of the German Book Trade dring the Frankfurt Book Fair every year in autumn.

found in my archive - The Castle Phillipsruhe is one of the most important architectural and cultural monuments in Hesse. It was built between 1700 and 1725 as a baroque-style palace on the banks of River Main; based on French models. Nowadays it's museum and an event-center for congresses, theater and wedding ceremonies.
