The Boxdorf Windmill is a former windmill built in 1849 in Boxdorf, a district of Moritzburg.
Until 1652, the Boxdorfer and the Reichenberger farmers had to grind their grain in the Plauenschen soil and in the (somewhat closer) Ockrilla Lease Mill. With the Saxon Constitution of 1831, the grinding force fell away.
The first mill at this site, a wooden pint mill, was built in 1839 by the miller Münch from Zuendorf on the Boxdorf Galgenberg (also: Gallberg). The grinding mill was able to grind eight to ten talents of flour daily. In 1847, the mill was sold to Müller Friedrich Wilhelm Seeländer from Weferlingen near Magdeburg. The mill burned down in a thunderstorm in 1849 in full operation.
Friedrich Wilhelm sold the remains to his brother Heinrich Christoph Seeländer and ran the Loschwitz watermill himself. Heinrich Christoph rebuilt the mill in 1849 as a stone, defensive-tower-like Dutch mill. This is testified by a sandstone with an engraved year above the original entrance door. Six years later Friedrich Wilhelm returned to Boxdorf in 1855 and took over the mill again from his brother. Around 1860 the house belonging to the mill was probably destroyed by arson. The existing residential building was then built.
In the German War of 1866, the Saxon Army, allied with Austria, gathered near Dresden and occupied the mill. The miller was no longer allowed to grind grain as a pressing.
Friedrich Wilhelm Seeländer died in 1877 as a result of a war suffering. Since his descendants had other professions or were too young, the mill came into foreign hands. Friedrich Hermann Müller bought the mill with three meals and a bakery for 11,100 marks. A lightning strike on 27 June 1887 did not result in a fire. Nevertheless, the roof, wings and wave were destroyed. Since in the meantime more efficient working machinery companies had taken over the business, a repair was no longer worthwhile. The mill came to a standstill.
The owner Müller was granted a concession for coffee and beer serving in 1890. Müller opened an economy and on the tower of the mill a wooden observation deck. This was replaced in 1904 by the still existing stone structure with pinnacles.
In 1921 Paul Gantze purchased the mill and had an electric grinding plant reached inside. He moved the banquet to the neighbouring apartment building. In 1927 he built a small hall. The property became a popular excursion restaurant that was in operation until the 1950s.
The church was built between 1845 and 1885 by the architect Louis van Overstraeten in a romano-byzantine style. The building was listed building by decree of 09/11/1976 and its surroundings with the square by royal decree of 3 October 1983).

In the nineteenth century, Chimica Arenella was built inside the seaside village of Arenella, a large Art Nouveau-style factory where tobacco products were packaged, among other things.
The history of "Chimica Arenella" began in the 10s of the twentieth century, when it was established as a branch of the great German factory Gondelberg.
In 1930 it became the largest European citric acid factory, reaching prominent positions in the world chemical industry, and its plant became a reference point for other factories in the sector.
Today taking a tour inside the area of the former factory is a surreal adventure, it seems to be in a strange country far from modern civilization, instead we are inside the city, even if in a hamlet.
----------------
Nell'Ottocento all'interno della borgata marinara dell'Arenella viene costruita la Chimica Arenella, grossa fabbrica in stile liberty dove tra le altre cose venivano confezionati prodotti di tabacco.
La storia della "Chimica Arenella" iniziò negli anni dieci del novecento, quando fu costituita come succursale della grande fabbrica tedesca Gondelberg.
Nel 1930 divenne la più grande fabbrica europea di acido citrico, raggiungendo posizioni di rilievo nell'industria chimica mondiale, e il suo stabilimento divenne punto di riferimento per le altre fabbriche del settore.
Oggi fare un giro dentro l’area dell’ex stabilimento e’ un avventura surreale, sembra di trovarsi in uno strano paese lontano dalla civilta’ moderna, invece siamo dentro la citta’, anche se in una borgata.
The first town, built by Celts in the first century BC, occupied about 30 hectares along the slopes of Gellért Hill. Archaeological finds suggest that it may have been a densely populated settlement with a separate district of craftsmen (potteries and bronze foundries). It may have been a trading centre as well, as coins coming from different regions would indicate. The town was occupied by the Romans at the beginning of the Christian era. Its inhabitants moved to the Danube plains to a city retaining the Celtic name (Aquincum) in the first century AD. In AD 106, the city became the capital of the Roman province of Pannonia Inferior. The headquarters of the governor and significant military force were stationed here, and its population numbered about 20,000. It was frequently involved in wars on the border of the Roman Empire (formed by the Danube River).
The city of Budapest was officially created on 17 November 1873 from a merger of the three neighboring cities of Pest, Buda and Óbuda. Smaller towns on the outskirts of the original city were amalgamated into Greater Budapest in 1950. ( wikipedia )
Built in 1895, and enlarged a few years later, this gothic architectural style building served for more than seventy-five years as the custodian's residence for Lincoln's tomb at Oak Ridge Cemetery in Springfield, Illinois. Today the former residence houses site offices.
The Lincoln Tomb and War Memorials State Historic Site is on the National Register of Historic Places.
Further to my previous post of the ruined church of St Lawrence, I took this photograph to show what the ubiquitous influence of Sir Lionel Lyde fulfilled. He commissioned this church around 1775 and it was built in 1778 on his land in Ayot St Lawrence, with the entrance facing his house. It was designed by Nicholas Revett, a Suffolk architect who was clearly passionate about classical buildings. The church was to serve the local villagers and also as a mausoleum to Sir Lionel and his wife, as seen by the pavilions on either side of the main structure. I personally think it is an abortion. He was a trader in the Caribbean and the church was undoubtedly built on the proceeds of slavery. As seen by my previous post, he desecrated a consecrated building to satisfy his own vanity.

Sandcastles
We built sand castles that washed away
I made you cry when I walked away
Oh, and although I promised that I couldn't stay, baby
Every promise don't work out that way, oh, babe
Every promise don't work out that way
Dishes smashed on my counter from our last encounter
Pictures snatched out the frame
Bitch, I scratched out your name and your face
What is it about you that I can't erase, baby?
Well every promise don't work out that way, no no, babe
Well every promise don't work out that way
And your heart is broken 'cause I walked away
Show me your scars and I won't walk away
Oh, and I know I promised that I couldn't stay, baby
Every promise don't work out that way, no no no no no
Every promise don't work out that way

Built in 1938 as a Marathon Gas Station, this delightful structure is now the home of the Springfield Bicycle Doctor. In the years between being a gas station and bicycle shop, the building has been occupied as a laundry and dry cleaners, real estate office and, more recently, a barber shop. The current owners, Robert and Cynde LaBonte, purchased the property in early 2012, and have since remodeled the original building for their bicycle sales and repair shop, and have added a small storage building.

The castle was built between 1350 and 1375. In 1534 Renswoude was recognised as a knight royal residence. In 1623 castle Borchwal already expire as Johan van Reede become the owner . This Calvinistic priest finds a church more important than the rebuilding, of his own castle. In the house, on its property where Protestant meetinings kept, the house become much too small. He gets authorisation to build its own church near the castle. This fine cupola church was taken in 1641 in use. Then late Johan van Reede demolishes in 1654 the old castle and build the new, current castle.
The castle park developed itself as from that time slowly in a baroque park, with a straight alley pattern. In 1682 Johan are succeeded by his third zoon, Frederik Adriaan. He was married with Maria Duyst van Voorhout. During the absence of her man she let dig now the Grand still existing canal, compared with the castle alley. Because of this big work, much unemployed persons could helped with the work. But it had been especially intended as a surprise for her man, They are Versailles lgarden overs in that time, so they build there own French garden. On 28 November 1985 there was a big fire on the castle. The fire made a damage of millions of guldens. All the next day, they started with setting up wharf and rebuild the damage. This was reached by the energy of the current owner, baron Taets van Amerongen. In the meantime the castle has been restored entirely. For groups the castle be visit.
I walked the world afar
Built up a thousand walls
To try and hide away
I searched to find my soul
A journey far from home
Lost in a life I'd made
And I'd been 'round in circles
Living for the moment
I know I ran so far
Was acting kind of crazy
Coming up with empty
Felt like I lost my heart
Now I've found a love that
Is clearer than the deep blue skies
It's true You were right there
I can see it in the days gone by
I see You in the days gone by
Your promise never left my side
I know sometimes I tried to give up
Still You caught me when I fell from high
I see You in the days gone by
You took my fragile fate
And didn't hesitate
Your love in every scar
Passion with no restraints
Held back the darkest days
So now my life is Yours
You've got me when I'm broken
You're with me when I'm hopeless
I know You're never far
Your mercy has no ending
It perseveres unfailing
You'll always have my heart
Now I've found a love that
Is clearer than the deep blue skies
It's true You were right there
I can see it in the days gone by
I see You in the days gone by
Your promise never left my side
I know sometimes I tried to give up
Still You caught me when I fell from high
I see You in the days gone by
See You in the days gone by
See You in the days gone by
And I need You everyday 'cause
I see You in the days gone by
Your promise never left my side
I know sometimes I tried to give up
Still You caught me when I fell from high
I see You in the days gone by

Built in AD 150, this is the monumental gateway to the Temple of Artemis. It was originally flanked by shops.
You can descend through the temple's gateway, the propylaeum. If you want to get a sense of the complete extent of Jerash, head towards the North Gate for further views.
Built between 1812 /14 , the bridge was designed by Thomas Telford .
The bridge has a single span of 46 metres crossing the River Spey .
The Church was built in 1799 on the former Caminho dos Pinheiros, today Rua da Consolação, with the help of alms from devotees to Our Lady of Consolation and with the endorsement of the diocesan bishop Mateus de Abreu Pereira were able to begin its construction, with the technique of taipa, quite common at the time. The oldest record of its construction is a document transcribed by Jacinto Ribeiro, in which it attributes the idealization of the temple to the faithful Luiz da Silva and his brothers. Located in a boggy and marshy region there is another document proving the Church's ancient existence: on November 23, 1803, an office was registered that showed the need for drinking water for the residents of the neighborhood "Nossa Senhora da Consolação". In view of the custom of baptizing the district with religious names, mainly related to sanctuaries, the Church, besides already existing, corresponded to an important piece for the functioning of the region. And, in the year 1810, a plant in the city of São Paulo contained the chapel.
Built in 1826, a 189 foot long timber-framed covered bridge crosses the Ottauquechee River in the Taftsville village of Woodstock, Vermont . It is probably one of the most photograph covered bridges in the state.
Built around 1385, beautiful Bodiam is a classic example of what a medieval castle should look like.
Built in 1859 by the family-owned ironworks of Malaga, the iron grid has become entwined with a creeper, Wisteria Sinensis, from China that completely covers it. When the plant blooms in March, the entire arbor appears lilac in color, which is why it has been one of the main attractions of the garden for years.
The Pierre Bremond House is one of the 11 houses built between 1859 and 1910 that make up the Bremond Block Historic District. The block was added to National Register of Historic Places in 1970, and is considered one of the few remaining upper-class Victorian neighborhoods of the middle to late nineteenth century in Texas. Six of the eleven houses were built or expanded for members of the families of brothers Eugene and John Bremond, who were prominent in late-nineteenth-century Austin social, merchandising, and banking circles. Of these six residences, all but one were designed and built by the Austin contractor, George Fiegel.
The Pierre Bremond House sits in the center of the 400 block of W. Seventh St. between the John Bremond, Jr. House on its east side, and the Eugene Bremond House, the house of Pierre's father, on its west side. Built in 1898, the two-story, tan brick house was the last Bremond house to be built. It is a subdued late Victorian with a low-pitched hip roof, a double gallery, and an unobtrusive tower on the west side.
While the Pierre Bremond House may be the least ornate of all the houses, Pierre's home was the most spacious. Renovated in 2012, the house is currently owned by the Texas Classroom Teachers Association, who also own the John Bremond, Jr. home next door that serves as the association headquarters.
