This is the town hall, located at the market square. Built in 1626.









This region between GieЯen and the Ruhrarea (Dortmund) is known for cladding the houses with slate shingles. Many houses here have a shingle-side and a framework-side.











































I really like the narrowness of these old alleys.

















The car in the foreground is the odd one out and would better fit to some american suburb






























This area looks like a pretty nice neighborhood to me














The building in the background is the train station across the Dill River.









Now we head to the castle Herborn, which is located west of the oldtown on a hill. It has been first mentioned in 1350 and nowadays it's home to an evangelic theological seminar.


















A view over the old town as seen from the castle















This is the "backside" of the castle










Behind the castle, there are also some old houses





















Once, here was a wall.










Here too, a tower is left and finally we get to see the Dill River
