Page "Görlitz" Paragraph 12

The town has a rich architectural heritage ( Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque, Historicist, Art Nouveau ), which was — in contrast to most other historical German cities — never severely destroyed during World War II, except for the explosion of bridges and minor clashes.

One example of this rich architectural heritage is the Schönhof, which is one of the oldest civic renaissance buildings in Germany.

Another medieval heritage is a model of the Holy Sepulchre which was constructed in the late 15th Century.
