An old house (that looks even older due to some filtering):
New homes and space for even more – on a former industrial area at the edge of the city center:
And finally the freshly renovated Flaschlturm (“flask tower”), a relic from the old fortifications along the town wall – more here (PDF), item 2. Will be used as home for art scholarship holders, the first of these “Joseph Maria Lutz scholarships” was awarded recently (German):
New Pabuca topic, of course…
Four straight lines to sit on and to write on, as at least a few kids seem to think – below that, dry between moist and finally vertical with horizontal:
Sorry, but this post is not available in English
This week’s Pabuca topic is “no fun”, so let’s start right away to get it over with^^:
Construction sites usually mean not much fun in the first place – noise, dirt, traffic disturbances. (Except when unusual machines are used, or you’re young enough to see every machine as unusual…) In this case:
…not even what is being built is a fun topic, because this will (finally) be a memorial for the victims of National Socialism. A German article about it with a model photo is » here.
This garden door doesn’t just stand around alone for fun, of course the rest of the fence will be added soon:
And finally there is quite some no-fun connected to our small local museum for religious art in the old sacristan house – firstly, the opening hours once per quarter are a bit limited for interested visitors; secondly, everything but the ground floor is not accessible to visitors because of fire safety regulations.
The exhibits will soon move to a side wing of a nearby church, though.
“Lost” is Pabuca’s current topic – and in this case I’m taking the liberty to grab some photos from the archive because what you see here doesn’t exist anymore…1
This very low passage – barricaded for quite some time – and the house around it had to make way for a new building; construction has just begun. If I remember correctly, it’s planned to have a (bigger) passage, too.
You were once able to buy baskets here in the “backyard” of the main square. Now there’s a parking garage (always welcome in the city center).
Even though this old entrance was only located in a little side street in a residential area right next to the city center, it doesn’t exist anymore. 
I hope everyone who once entered these places came out again, otherwise they’d really be lost…
