The current Fischertor city gate was built in 1924, after demolishing the remains of a gate in this place dating to 1609.
The 1609 gate was actually a modification of a 1328 gate. The 1609 gate was nearly completely destroyed in 1703 during the War of the Spanish Succession, slowly rebuilt, but closed in 1770 due to lack of traffic.
As you can see from my middle-of-the-road point of view, there is still not too much traffic in 2022... 😁

Revisited. The subway station "Westfriedhof" (Western Cemetery) on the border between the districts of Moosach and Neuhausen-Nymphenburg, along lines U1/U7.
Pretty popular photo location for obvious reasons...
The blue walls (remainders of the slurry wall that was used during construction) and the 11 huge lamps of 3.80 m diameter each give a very special atmosphere. The lamps do have yellow, red and blue lights, so each section has a slightly different atmosphere.

From the side. The Walhalla memorial is a hall of fame that honours distinguished people "of the German tongue".
The idea for such a memorial is from (at that time) Crown Prince Ludwig I of Bavaria in 1807. The building in neoclassicistic style, modeled after the Parthenon in Athens, was finally begun in 1830 and completed in 1842.

The Kaiserkapelle is a prime example of romanesque architecture and also one of the most complete such structures. Built in the 13th century, part of Nuremberg Castle.
The chapel is a so-called "double chapel". This is the upper level, reserved for the emperor. The hole right in front connects this level to the lower level, for "ordinary" people, so they could enjoy mass together with the emperor.
Consequently the upper level is only accessible from the inside of the castle's palace, while the lower level only has an entrance from the outside of the palace.
