    Interesting to see the towers even if only in the evening. Impressive buildings one originally from 1345 and the second originally from 1415. They are the last remaining part of the medival city wall.  more »

    Well kept historical buildings and a bridge in between, but really nothing so special. The eyes on the left one are ugly.

    Stunning place. Great when lit up. We'll worth visiting.
