Overwhelmed by the Town Hall...

Schaffhausen - (Switzerland)

I don’t know why, but once again I had the impression to be in a kind of fairy-tale movie stage.

If it had been built for a kind of theme park, I would have found this building definitely too mannered and at the limit of kitsch, but oh well, it’s a real ancient building…

I do think that the Brothers Grimm would have liked this Town Hall…

Wow! This is the most beautiful building, beautifully presented here....the striking facade colours and those extraordinary deep eaves so wonderfully embellished. It is quite unlike most Town Halls.

Impressive building with all these wonderful paintings and decorations.
I like the way that you captured it as the light reveals every detail.
