Remscheid, Germany - 27th September 2015

By: olgamaus

Later we went to Remscheid, we were invited to have (late) breakfast with a friend. After leaving the bus we had to walk a few minutes. Katja showed me the shopping street with the shopping mall.

These large forceps are a symbol for the tool producing industry here.

In the background you can see the city hall with its tower.

As we still had some time to get to Katja's friend, we walked around the streets. In this part of the city many old houses "survived" World War II.

Later we took a walk to a district which is about 6 km apart from the city centre, it is called Luettringhausen. We chose a nice route to get there.

When we walked through the outskirts we saw many old factory buildings among the dwellings.

Soon we reached a lovely valley with a creek running through it.

When we reached Luettringhausen Katja showed me the city hall. Luettringhausen is one of the historic districts, a bit like Lennep.

In Luettringhausen a market was taking place, called "Herbstmarkt". You could see lots of agricultural products and also historic tractors were exhibited.

If you had apple trees in your garden you could have taken your own apples here to make juice from them.

The narrow streets were crowded, so we enjoyed a beer and went back home.
