Top 20 Natural Monuments around Forst Tennenlohe

From here on, the Rednitz, after it has now absorbed the Pegnitz, is called Regnitz. The point of land to Überplanken certainly has the advantage that you don't have to deal with mud or wild growth. The disadvantage is that the boards, despite the corrugations, quickly turn into a slide as soon as they get wet.

The main market is the central square of Nuremberg's old town. Unfortunately, the main market was badly damaged in World War II, and the only architecturally significant buildings left on the market square today are the Frauenkirche and the Schöne Brunnen. The weekly market takes place every weekday on the main market. The annual Nuremberg Christmas market is a particular attraction.

The beautiful fountain stands on the edge of Nuremberg's main market square. It is shaped like a Gothic church spire and is one of Nuremberg's main attractions and is also part of the Historical Mile. Legend has it that whoever turns the golden ring on the fountain's grille will have three wishes granted. There is another black ring on the opposite side of the fountain. Some people claim that this is the real lucky ring and that the "golden" one is the tourist ring... Just try it out! 😉

Really beautiful old main market

The myth of the brass ring, which is seamlessly forged into the iron grate, also has a legend. It is said to have got in like this: Master Kuhn, who built the grate around the well, had a daughter called Margret, who was courted by his apprentice. But because he did not want to give his child to a poor boy, he forbade this courtship and threw him out. It is said to have said something like: "It will come to nothing! It will come to nothing, just as you can make the rings on the well grate turn!" The master then went away and the apprentice wanted to prove that he could do something and secretly made the ring. Then he cut it open, inserted it into the grate, soldered, hammered and filed until you could no longer see the seam. Then he left town and never came back. When the master returned home, he realized that he had been too strict. He regretted being thrown out and would have liked to have the clever apprentice back and given him his daughter too, but it was too late and Margret cried her eyes out. One of the rings is considered a lucky charm; according to legend, whoever turns it will be blessed with children. The brass ring is usually thought to be the lucky charm, but many Nuremberg residents believe that the iron ring is the "real ring" and therefore the lucky charm. According to another legend, the sculpture of the fountain was actually commissioned as the top of the tower of the Frauenkirche (also on the main market), but this was rejected due to the lack of a way to lift it.

Master Kuhn, who built the gate around the fountain, had a daughter called Margret, who was courted by his apprentice. But because he did not want to give his child to a poor boy, he forbade this courtship and threw him out. The apprentice is said to have said: "It will be as little use as you can make the rings on the fountain gate turn!" The master went away on a trip and the apprentice wanted to prove that he could do something and secretly made the ring. Then he cut it open, inserted it into the gate, soldered, hammered and filed until the seam was no longer visible. He then left the city and never returned. When the master returned home, he regretted being thrown out and would have liked to have the clever apprentice back and give him his daughter too. The brass ring is usually considered to be the lucky charm, but many Nuremberg residents believe that the iron ring is the "real ring" and therefore the lucky charm.

The 19-meter-high fountain from 1396 is one of Nuremberg's landmarks. Its top is reminiscent of a Gothic church tower

The weekly market takes place every working day on the approximately 5,000 square meter open space. When the main market is used for the Christmas market or other markets and events, the weekly market stalls are moved to the surrounding pedestrian zone.
