Mauthalle



Als 1498 Stadtwerkmeister Hans Beheim d. Ä. das innere Frauentor (seit ca. 1250 verlief hier die vorletzte Stadtbefestigung) abreißen ließ, wurde im Stadtgraben 1498–1502 der Getreidespeicher errichtet. Mit 84 x 20 x 29 m (LxBxH) war die Mauthalle das größte der zwölf städtischen Kornhäuser. In Krisen war so die Versorgung gesichert. Der dreigeschossige Sandsteinbau mit fünfgeschossigem Dacherker war an den Schmalseiten mit Wagen befahrbar. Zum Transport ins Innere dienten Aufzugsluken über den Giebelachsen und an den Traufseiten. Die Ostseite schmücken ein Netz von Kielbögen im Giebel und ein Spitzbogenportal mit den Stadtwappen (Adam Kraft, 1502). Seit 1572 war der Getreidespeicher auch Stadtwaage und Zollamt (Maut). 1897/98 Umnutzung zum Geschäftshaus. Beim Wiederaufbau 1953 ließ man das Fachwerk der Dacherker in verputztem Mauerwerk errichten. Im von 26 Säulen gestützten Keller ist eine Gaststätte untergebracht.

Weißenburg (Germany)



Weißenburg - St. Andreas Church



The evangelist church St. Andreas is the largest church building in Weißenburg and the tallest structure in the historical city core. It was built from 1294 to 1327 on the place of a previous church. The choir (quire) was built later and was intended to be the first part of a new, slightly rotated church building, which however was never finished. So it was integrated into the existing building, which leads to the noticable bent in the interior dome (not obviously visible from the outside). This also explains the place of the spire (west tower) set in front of the choir and finished in 1520. Further additions and modifications followed over the centuries. In 2007 the organ was renovated and inaugurated with a church service and concert. Today the church is used by the "Evangelisch-Lutherische Kirchengemeinde Weißenburg i. Bay."

Monument to Vittorio Emanuele II



The Monumento Nazionale a Vittorio Emanuele II (National Monument of Victor Emmanuel II) or Altare della Patria (Altar of the Fatherland) or "Il Vittoriano" is a monument to honour Victor Emmanuel, the first king of a unified Italy. It is located in Rome, Italy. It occupies a site between the Piazza Venezia and the Capitoline Hill. The monument was designed by Giuseppe Sacconi in 1895; sculpture for it was parceled out to established sculptors all over Italy. It was inaugurated in 1911 and completed in 1935. The monument is built of pure white marble from Botticino, Brescia, and features majestic stairways, tall Corinthian columns, fountains, a huge equestrian sculpture of Victor Emmanuel and two statues of the goddess Victoria riding on quadrigas. The structure is 135 meters (490 ft) wide and 70 meters (230 ft) high. If the quadrigae and winged victories are included, the height is to 81 meters (265 ft). The monument holds the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier with an eternal flame, built under the statue of Italy after World War I following an idea of General Giulio Douhet.



Curia Iulia, Rome



The curia per antonomasia was the Curia Hostilia in Rome, which was the building where the Senate usually met. The Senate, initially just a meeting of the city elders from all tribes (its name comes from "senex", which means "old man"), saw its powers grow together with the conquest that brought a town of humble origins to rule a large Republic (and then decrease steadily with the advent of the Empire). During their expansion, the Romans exported the model to every city that gained the status of Municipium, so that it had its own Senate and its own officials charged with local administration (although they weren't usually elected but nominated by the central government; the only place where officials were actually elected by the people was Rome itself, and by Imperial times even those elections, although kept for the sake of tradition, had no more significance). Senators themselves were not elected since the early Republic, having been transformed into a hereditary nobility. By the Imperial period, a curia was any building where local government held office, i.e. judicial proceedings, government meetings, bureaucracy, etc., and shortly afterwards the term started to refer also to the people making up the local administration.
