Apples

A billionaire's shop on the main square, next to some coffee company based in Seattle. As a coffee aficionado, I avoid the place.
 Among other news, Apple just got fined 150 million euros in France for abuse of dominant position... My phone is Android, my desktop PC and my laptop are both with Windows...

Kinderspielgass

A pedestrian street in the town centre. The Alsatian name means children's play street, rue du jeu des enfants in French. Yes, streets here often have 3 names: Alsatian, French and German. In medieval times, it was the wine market.  The street goes was to roman times, BC.
 

Sunny and warm

Warm enough to leave the windows open 
 

Let there be light

Nature morte

 

Ironman

In the year 1740, a weapon maker decided to promote his shop by installing an example of his trade on his house. Now the place is called place de l'homme de fer, or ironman square. The house is now a pharmacy.
 

Ford

A nice 1932 or 1933 Ford, according to the Google image search, from the time when they made classy cars.
 

At the barber

 

Brothers street

Rue des frères, so called because the catholic seminar makes up for most of the street.
 

Place Gutenberg

Johannes Gutenberg lived in Strasbourg from 1434 until at least 1444, probably in the parish of Saint-Arbogast. It was in Strasbourg in 1440 that he is said to have perfected and revealed the secret of printing through his research. Wikipedia.

The square is named after him, with a statue on the centre.
 

Now, where was that???

More b&w here.

Rue du sanglier 🐗

Boar street. No boars around, the name came from the evolution of a 13th century old German family name. The street was part of the roman fort, under the reign of emperor Caius Julius Caesar  Augustus. 

A very good restaurant nearby, btw!
 

Colours

Very grey and rainy weather here. Need some colour.
