The walls of Friedberg were built with money from the ransom for Richard I of England (Richard the Lionheart). The gate depicted above is a reconstruction. It is known as Ungartor.

On my way from the railway station to the centre of Friedberg, I passed this museum, which was hosting an exhibition of furniture produced by the famous factory Thonet.
