Amberg's Old Town as a Living History Book
Amberg presents itself not merely as a backdrop but as an evolved urban landscape: medieval city walls, narrow alleys, squares full of memories, and the distinctive topography of the old town create a dense exhibition atmosphere in the open air. Those who look closely experience urban development as a visual narrative of trade, power, religion, and civic culture.
