    Hiking

    Due to a maid's carelessness, the great fire of Selb occurred on March 18, 1856, which almost completely destroyed the small weaving town.
    1 year later, Lorenz gave Hutschenreuther a new future by founding the first porcelain factory.
    The picture is attached to the entrance to the Old Pharmacy opposite the town hall.

    In the entrance area of the Old Pharmacy opposite the town hall there is a porcelain mural by Eva Grabmüller, which has the topic of the Selber town fire, one of the drastic events in the town's history.
