You only see what you know (Goethe)
In Rostock, there are a lot of colourful gabled houses to see. It’s great fun to walk through the streets and count the different gables one discovers. Even this gable of a newly built edifice next to the old town hall has something decorative to offer.
The city hall of Rostock, dating back to the 13th century, is an interesting mixture of Brick Gothic and Baroque architecture. The Baroque porch was built in front of the Gothic wall at the beginning of the 18th century.
