The still shows a narrow alley in the Nuremberg old town, at whose far end the massive choir of a Gothic hall church rises. In the foreground right, an elaborately designed oriel window dominates, featuring a pointed roof, tracery windows, and sculptural shell decoration, attributable to a Renaissance-era burgher house; the adjoining timber-frame structure is visible at the right edge of the frame. An archway spans the alley and connects the buildings on both sides. Individual pedestrians enliven the street in the middle ground. In the travel film, this sequence depicts the contrast typical of Nuremberg between medieval sacred architecture and civic timber-frame construction, conveying to the international audience the image of a historically grown German imperial city.
