Anyone who takes a city tour there will be told the saying "Wooden eyes, be alert." What a story👌😎

The gatekeepers at the Nabburg Gate guarded the entrance to the city. The upper floors of the towers housed detention cells, comparable to today's sobering-up cells. Inmates were usually only there at night; during the day they had to help with the construction and maintenance of the fortifications.

Sculpture in the former state garden show grounds. The more interesting part is a good distance down the Vils.

In 1972, the Amberg-Sulzbach district founded the supra-regional Mining and Industry Museum in Theuern. Its primary mission is to research, document, and present the mining and industrial history of the entire eastern Bavarian region. The Mining and Industry Museum is housed in the Hammerherrenschloss (Hammer Lord's Castle), built in 1781. In addition, regionally typical industrial monuments were relocated to Theuern: an ironworks, a glass grinding and polishing works (which has also housed the Eastern Bavarian Electricity Museum since 1996), and a winding tower with an engine house.

These two old mine railways are a reminder of the era of ore mining and steel production in the region. The Ore Trail runs past them.

The Basilica of St. Martin was built in 1421 and is the largest Gothic hall church in the Upper Palatinate. In addition to its size and the outstanding tower, which dominates the cityscape of Amberg with its height of 93 m, it is above all the numerous stained glass windows that make St. Martin a building worth seeing.

Theuern Hammer Mill A family named von Theuern can be traced back to the end of the 11th century, which coincides with the first documented mention of Theuern. Hartnit von "Tiuren" appears as a witness in a document written between 1092 and 1114. A hammer mill likely did not exist in Theuern until the end of the 15th century. In 1518, the Portner family acquired the hammer mill and the associated estate. As early as 1682, Johann Georg Portner built a hunting lodge on the site of the present-day castle. During the Counter-Reformation, the Portners were expelled from their hammer mill. After the Portners, the hammer mill was operated by Andreas von Ruland's widow (1705) and, from 1709, by the Lochner family of Hüttenbach. According to the church records, the foundation stone for the late Baroque castle, which still stands today, was laid on August 25, 1780; the builder was Joseph Christian von Lochner. The Elector's master builder, Wolfgang Diller from Amberg, was commissioned to design the Hammerherrenschloss (Theuern Manor). Several outbuildings were constructed as early as the 1770s, resulting in a four-winged complex around an enclosed courtyard. The east facade of the three-story main building is adorned with a central projection topped by a triangular pediment. The Lochner-Bibra coat of arms is displayed in the pediment. The imposing main portal with pilasters and a broken pediment—judging by its style—originates from the hunting lodge built in 1682. Inside, the original room decorations, including the staircase with its richly carved banister, and a salon on the first floor with carved Rococo doors have been preserved. The manor is a plastered building with a hipped roof; an angled extension with a gable roof likely dates from the 19th century. On September 17, 1816, Karl Christian von Mann, also known as Tiechler, purchased the Theuern estate from Countess Sophie von Hirschberg. In 1832, the local ironworks had a blast furnace. The son of von Mann sold the estate to Florian Dorfner on August 28, 1855. At that time, it comprised 1,707 Tagwerk (approximately 1,707 hectares), of which 1,561 Tagwerk were forests. In 1935, the Dorfner family sold the forest estate, including the castle, to the Berlin timber wholesaler Breba. Today, the property belongs to the Wittmann family. Theuern Castle houses the Mining and Industry Museum of Eastern Bavaria. In addition, the castle is used for numerous cultural events and entertainment. Source: Excerpts from www.wikipedia.de

The oldest of Amberg's city gates is located in the eastern part of the old town. The lower, Gothic section was built in the 14th century, the upper one around 1587.
