Can you see it? Above the windows are the faded words 'US ARMY' on the building facade. The Bavarian-American Hotel was formerly used by the US Army during the occupation of Germany after WWII. Nuremberg was formerly part of the American section. (There were four parts: American, British, French & Russian). Eventually the sign came down and the army left (well at least out of that building) but I guess no one ever wanted to paint over it. A kind of 'where's waldo' piece of history right across from the Hauptbahnhof. Cool, eh? |
