The city suffered from Allied air raids during World War II. Some old building were rebuild and today the centre attracts with narrow streets, a 16th-century Town Hall and the Jugendstil (art nouveau) artists' colony, founded at the turn of the 20th century.

Nice pictures and tips of Darmstadt where I lived from 1985 til 1987. Brought back some memories.
Hi Christian - well done infos and tips - so I could learn a lot about my city :-) Thanks :-))
Amazing travelogue
Looks like a pretty town. Very good work, Christian.
Great architecture, pics of the casttle and good info!
Great work in progress here :) As far as I know, Darmstadt was a center of Jugendstil (Art Nouveau) architecture, along with Munich and Vienna around 1900... you have any examples of that?
Great work!
