The Lauf a.d. city archive Since 1935, Pegnitz and the municipal collections have been housed in the buildings of the Glockengiesser Hospital, which has been located within the city walls since 1374. Donated by a citizen of Nuremberg - the bell founder Hermann Keßler - and his wife Elsbeth, it was a charitable institution in the city on the "Golden Road" between Prague and Nuremberg that housed older people in need of help until 2013
