Here you can see some historical postcards of important buildings.

Villa Berberich, the former hospital, about 1950

Until 1932 the manufacturing family Berberich lived in this villa at the former city limits. In 1939 the town bought the building and it became part of the municipal hospital. In 1980 the new district hospital was opened, and the villa was restored and changed into a "House of Culture".

"Gasthaus zum Goldenen Knopf", about 1920.

The "Gasthaus zum Goldenen Knopf" is one of the oldest restaurants in town. It's origins probably go back to the monastery lodging in the Middle Ages. Until 1860 it was located at the Cathedral Square. Then it moved to the current building beside the Town Hall.
