On 2 January 1945, the medieval city centre of Nuremberg was systematically bombed by the Royal Air Force and the U.S. Army Air Forces and about ninety percent of it was destroyed in only one hour, with 1,800 residents killed and roughly 100,000 displaced.

Az ebringeni sajttorta akkor is jobb lenne az eddig kóstolt összes bajornál, ha nem kivarrt dekoltázsú eladólányt állítottak volna a térre.

Nuremberg (No. 1)

Schöner Brunnen (en: beautiful fountain) is a 14th-century fountain located on Nuremberg's main market next to the town hall and is considered one of the main attractions of the city's Historical Mile. The fountain is approximately 19 meters high and has the shape of a Gothic spire.

The fountain was built by Heinrich Beheim from 1385 to 1396.

The 40 colorful figures that adorn the fountain represent the world view of the Holy Roman Empire. They are philosophy, the seven liberal arts, the four Evangelists, the four Church Fathers, the seven Prince-electors, the Nine Worthies, Moses and seven Prophets (Hosea, Daniel, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Amos, Isaiah and Joel). 

The two brass rings embedded in the fence surrounding the fountain on opposite sides are said to bring good luck to those who spin them.
