This growth led to an increase in tax revenue, as well as a greater need for urban planning.<br /> <br /> One of the grand avenues laid out in the 19th century leads to Königsplatz—a recreation of the Acropolis of Athens. Ludwig I was a devoted &quot;Hellenophile&quot;, he even changed the spelling of the state’s name from &quot;Baiern&quot; to &quot;Bayern.&quot; His son, Otto, later became the first King of Greece. Today, this area serves as the heart of Munich’s gallery and museum district.<br /> <br /> The building, modeled after classical Corinthian temple architecture with a prominent front colonnade, was built between 1838 and 1848 Since 1967 it houses the antique collections of the Wittelsbach dukes and kings the &quot;Staatliche Antikensammlung&quot; (State Collections of Antiquities).<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Etruscan<br /> <br /> Gold brooch<br /> <br /> featuring a winged sphinx and two further smaller figures<br /> <br /> The Etruscans were renowned for their unrivalled craftsmanship, particularly for granulation (the technique of welding tiny gold beads) and filigree work (the finest gold wires)<br /> <br /> <br /> Vulci<br /> <br /> <br /> 7th–6th c BC</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/204320361@N07/">pee.kay@fn.de</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/204320361@N07/55653090194/" title="Liane"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55653090194_680b22d163_m.jpg" width="240" height="132" alt="Liane" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/204320361@N07/">pee.kay@fn.de</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/204320361@N07/55652984663/" title="Peter, Hottel u.a."><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55652984663_68fd3894d1_m.jpg" width="240" height="133" alt="Peter, Hottel u.a." /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/stephengg/">stephengg</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/stephengg/55653004918/" title="View of nave towards High Altar, Marktkirche, Hannover"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55653004918_0d6381a5ea_m.jpg" width="180" height="240" alt="View of nave towards High Altar, Marktkirche, Hannover" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/stephengg/">stephengg</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/stephengg/55652927203/" title="Looking down on Platz der Menschenrechte, Hannover"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55652927203_95fd976780_m.jpg" width="240" height="180" alt="Looking down on Platz der Menschenrechte, Hannover" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/stephengg/">stephengg</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/stephengg/55653216430/" title="Relaxing by the Maschteich, seen from the Neues Rathaus dome, Hannover"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55653216430_a1bbd0c24d_m.jpg" width="240" height="180" alt="Relaxing by the Maschteich, seen from the Neues Rathaus dome, Hannover" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/stephengg/">stephengg</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/stephengg/55652797161/" title="Maschsee and Maschteich, seen from the Neues Rathaus dome, Hannover"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55652797161_d6fc46d4ce_m.jpg" width="240" height="183" alt="Maschsee and Maschteich, seen from the Neues Rathaus dome, Hannover" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/toninikkanen/">toninikkanen</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/toninikkanen/55652785301/" title="L1009810-2"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55652785301_6036757155_m.jpg" width="240" height="159" alt="L1009810-2" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/toninikkanen/">toninikkanen</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/toninikkanen/55652987839/" title="L1009829-2"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55652987839_9a9853c8e7_m.jpg" width="240" height="159" alt="L1009829-2" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/toninikkanen/">toninikkanen</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/toninikkanen/55652915518/" title="L1009832-2"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55652915518_c5ac10691b_m.jpg" width="240" height="159" alt="L1009832-2" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/39974957@N08/">vsoe</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/39974957@N08/55652859653/" title="52 8168-8 BEM mit Fotogüterzug 95124 Wilburgstetten - Nördlingen"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55652859653_cb9cd0fc66_m.jpg" width="240" height="134" alt="52 8168-8 BEM mit Fotogüterzug 95124 Wilburgstetten - Nördlingen" /></a></p> <p>22.09.2026 Wilburgstetten<br /> <br /> Gegen Mittag gab es immer wieder größere Wolkenlöcher.
