The still image shows a bustling street in Nuremberg’s old town, lined with multi-story Gründerzeit buildings on both sides. In the foreground, a streetcar is visible; pedestrians and individual automobiles move between the buildings. In the background, the two distinctive Gothic towers of St. Lorenz Church rise up, the city’s most significant medieval sacred building. The photograph conveys the image of a lively German metropolis with an intact historic cityscape. In the 1937 travel film, this sequence stands for the Nuremberg section, which presents the city as the historic center of Franconia with its medieval heritage.
