Travelog post for: Walter

Hi,
today the weather is great, so we took a walk through the city.

These pretty houses are a restaurant with a beer garden and a gallery.





This is the central bus station.



This is one of the churches in the city centre.



Here the shopping street is beginning.



From here you can see the central station area. On  the left side there is the new built station and large industrial plants.



We walked to the Trasse des Werkzeugs (Route of Tools) than. This route is a lane for pedestrians and cyclists, built on a closed railway track. It is about 5 km long, leading from the central station to the district Hasten. The building of this route was sponsored by local tool producing companies - that's why it is called Route of Tools.



The railway crossing gates were closed right now ...



A train is crossing the street.



Close to the railway station you can find many industrial buildings along this route.



You can find signs showing the logos of some of the sponsoring companies.













This is the former slaughterhouse, the building complex is under monument protection. Today smaller companies and offices are situated here.





You can also find some dilapidated factory buildings here.







We left the Route of Tools here because it is only a few minutes to walk to our home.



Katja told us that this was only about half of the whole distance. Maybe we will see the rest soon.

Bye
Walter
