A stroll through old town Zofingen
Yesterday I had to pass through Zofingen and so I have the opportunity for a shortly visit around the city, it is a beautiful place also known for its beautiful and intact old town.
The old town of Zofingen is not only fascinating with its good preservation, but also with its 22 flowing fountains.
The entry gate to the city.
Behind or in front of almost every store window you will finde a beautiful decoration.
The Niklaus-Thut fountain is remarkable. In the Battle of Sempach on 9 July 1386, Niklaus Thut and twelve Zofingen citizens fought on the side of the Habsburgs against the Confederates, since the 16th century he has been honoured as a legendary city hero.
The town hall was built at the end of the 18th century and substituted earlier buildings from the 15th and 17th century.
Have a great Day!
Wow, nice photography.
