About this work
Schwäbisch Hall, Germany: the western front of the northern historic old town on Salinenstrasse, seen from the north-northwest over the River Kocher. On the left in the picture is the south wing (Salinenstrasse 6) of the former correctional facility, built between 1843 and 1849, popularly known as the ‘Kocherhotel’. In the center of the picture is the striking ‘thief’s tower’, built around 1300 as a corner tower of the city fortifications; on the left and right directly behind it is the former stables and armory (Salinenstrasse 2, orange plaster), which is adjoined by another part on the right (Am Spitalbach 22, white plaster). Other historical buildings follow: Am Spitalbach 31 as well as Neue Strasse 32 and 33, Brückenhof 1, which are apparently not listed, but enjoy ensemble protection. On the right is the Henkersbrücke, which is of course a protected cultural monument. In the foreground is the Kocher weir with a fish ladder (right).
