その場所と古い路地が気に入りました。

美しい記念碑

I was totally impressed by how beautiful Stolberg is 👍 it's wonderful to walk through the streets.

Schleichers Hof is the name of a historic building in Stolberg's old town, dating back to the 16th century. It played a central role in the early history of Stolberg's copper and brass industry. The complex was originally known as a Kupferhof (literally, a copper or brass yard) and was built in 1575 by Leonhard (Leonard) Schleicher, a copper master from Aachen. In the early 1570s, Leonard Schleicher recognized the economic advantages of the Stolberg Vicht Valley for the brass industry, including its abundant water supply and proximity to ores and coal, and therefore moved his company from Aachen to Stolberg. There, on Burgstraße, he had the foundation stone Kupferhof of Stolberg built, which later became known as Schleichers Hof. At that time, it was one of the few buildings in the city constructed of stone, besides the imposing Stolberger Burg. A copper farm was not a regular residence, but a fortified courtyard-like commercial and residential structure surrounded by residential and factory buildings with a secure entrance gate and windows facing the courtyard, intended to combine both production and protection. As Stolberg's first copper farm, Schleichers Hof marks the beginning of the Stolberg brass industry. From this location, the urban and economic network expanded, and several similar farm complexes were later built. The presence of these companies is why Stolberg is also known as "Kupferstadt," the copper city. Using the water from nearby streams, metal could be processed in hammer mills and furnaces, which was essential for the production of brass (an alloy of copper and zinc). Over the centuries, the function of Schleichers Hof changed. Around 1790, the complex underwent a significant transformation, and a country pharmacy (Adler-Apotheke) was established on part of the site, one of the earliest in the Aachen district. This pharmacy remained in continuous operation for almost 200 years, contributing to the city's infrastructure far beyond the court's former industrial use. The building still has a recognizable façade today, while the interior and its use have changed. Remaining architectural elements, such as 16th-century wall anchors, serve as reminders of the original construction.

The Pont de Valognes is not a bridge in Valognes, France, but rather the name of a bridge in the German town of Stolberg. It is a symbolic bridge over the Vicht River on Stolberg's historic Burgstraße and commemorates its French twin town, Valognes, in Normandy. The Pont de Valognes is the official name of a bridge over the Vicht River on Stolberg's Burgstraße and one of the old main streets in the Altstadt (Old Town) of Stolberg in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. It has been part of the city's infrastructure for centuries, but was officially named "Pont de Valognes" in 2010. This naming ceremony marked the 20th anniversary of the twinning between Stolberg and Valognes, a municipality in the Normandy Cotentin region of France. Hikers report that the bridge offers views of the old town and Stolberg Castle and that it's a pleasant stop along routes through the historic streets of the Altstadt.

The old town of Stolberg in North Rhine-Westphalia is one of the most characteristic historic town centers in the region around Aachen and the Eifel region. The town center, which developed around medieval fortifications and trade routes, has retained its own charming identity over the centuries, with narrow streets, old squares, and well-preserved monuments from various periods. Stolberg was already mentioned in the early Middle Ages and grew into an important center for trade, crafts, and industry. Its location between Aachen, Liège, and Maastricht made it attractive to merchants and craftspeople from early on. The town boasts a rich industrial history, including iron and copper processing, which has left its mark on the architecture and structures of the old town. Stolberg's old town is not a single street but a cohesive historical urban fabric where you can discover countless sights.
