Together, these two streets form one of the most remarkable listed cityscapes in southern Germany. Elegant townhouses and leafy central boulevards give the area its distinctive character. The famous **Ludwig Railway** once ran along the central strip—an early symbol of technical progress and urban modernity. The spacious layout of the promenades is unique to Fürth, and the richly decorated façades still reflect the prosperity of their former residents. Take a moment to look up and admire the intricate architectural details. 2.

Designed in 1951 by landscape architect Hans Schiller for the **Grünen und Blühen** garden show, this historic park actually originated from the former cemetery beside the striking **Auferstehungskirche** (**Church of the Resurrection**).
