A few days ago the new suspension bridge in Bamberg was released over the right Regnitz to traffic. It combines the royal road to the so-called island city and leads directly into the axis Hauptwachstraße - Maxplatz - Green Market. Since there pedestrian for the retail of enormous importance, we celebrated the new suspension bridge in the local press even as the gateway to Bamberg (see, FN Magazine ). In a very carefully designed Exhibition "1000 years of history in Bamberg bridge", the Municipal Archives recently reminded of the importance of the Chain Bridge (see more info as pdf ).

(2) early view of Luitpold Bridge at the Luitpold road (Christmas decoration marks the main entrance to the city)
This view fails to recognize that the urban planning of the late 19 Century, the axis Luitpoldstraße - Luitpold Bridge - Willy-Lessing-Strasse to the new, dominant main axis have made. This broad content, the station staged to Schönleinsplatz the city entrance for the foreigners. Accordingly, the Schönleinsplatz with the mediation of the Long Road and architecturally excellent entrance into the city.
An act in the Central Registry of the New Town Hall on Maxplatz contains numerous maps of the period between 1877 and today that will make all the planning phases for the plaza vividly. In addition to a letter from the Shooting Society from 1893 to the city council, in which the Schönleinsplatz as the "most beautiful town square" is called, is also a phenomenal, well-drawn perspective view takes for a museum project by Theodor Fischer from before the First World War . The development around the place should therefore be able to meet the highest standards.
