Next to the Altstadt
runs the Rheinuferpromenade. I found this picture of it on the net. In the background, behind the clock tower, you can spot the Schlossturm and the Lambertus-Basilika, the steeple of which is twisted.
That twist is better noticeable on the picture above. The Schlossturm is what's left of an old castle, which burnt down in 1872.
City hall on the Marktplatz (Market place ) with the statue of Elector Jan Wellem, sitting high on his horse. It is said to be the most notable equestrian statue north of the Alps.
While dining outdoors, I saw this organ grinder come by. He had a stuffed monkey on top of the instrument. A reminder of the live ones, which once collected money from the bystanders..
What is this?

A. A solar flare.
B. A close-up of a lighted match.
C. A piece of firework.
D. None of the above.
