Zürch, Krumme Gasse and City Wall of Schweinfurt

Highlight • Historical Site

Located to the east of the market square, this area is one of the most beautiful, re-lived testimonies of the medieval and imperial past: small streets, cobbled streets and lovingly restored residential and craft houses. The name "Zurich" (Old High German: cattle pasture) indicates that centuries ago large areas for animal husbandry existed here. The northern adjoining area around the "Krumme Gasse" fascinates with its winding lane system. On its eastern side are the remains of the historic city walls on the Upper and Lower Wall.

Holy Spirit Church, Schweinfurt

Highlight • Religious Site

The Hospital Church of the Holy Spirit was built in the middle of the 15th century and almost completely destroyed in 1554 (second city ruin). It was rebuilt in the Gothic style in the 16th century and in the Neo-Romanesque style from 1897 to 1902. The main portal with the figure of King David and the representation of the first Pentecost, the two side portals (Prophet Zacharias and the baptism of Christ as well as the Annunciation scene) and the tower with a tall statue of Mary are worth seeing. There are four altars inside the church.

Schweinfurt Town Hall

Highlight • Historical Site

As in the Middle Ages, the market square is still a central and lively place for urban trade. Vegetable and fruit farmers from the surrounding area still come to the Schweinfurt market on market days to offer their goods.

Friedrich Rückert Monument

Highlight • Monument

On the market place rises the monument of one of the most famous sons of the city - Friedrich Rückert.
The poet and orientalist, whose birthplace is on the southeast corner of the market square, has been surveying the hustle and bustle on the lively square since 1890. The monument was created by the architect Friedrich Ritter von Thiersch and the sculptor Wilhelm von Rühmann. At the foot of the bronze rump, there are allegorical figures from his works, "Harnessed Sonnets" and "Brahmin Wisdom".

Schweinfurt City Wall

Highlight • Historical Site

1.
The old town includes the area of the independent city of Schweinfurt that dates back to the Middle Ages. It should not be confused with the so-called old town village. The old town is identical to district 11 and belongs to the city center district, which also includes districts 12 and 13.[2] The old town lies east of these two districts. It is viewed by locals as an independent district because it has completely different structures than the districts 12 and 13, which predominantly come from the Wilhelminian era.
