Image from the Coronation hall were a statue of Charlemagne is standing in de back.
Aachen's Gothic town hall
The town hall was built, with a coronation hall, in the 14th century on the site of the throne room of the Carolingian imperial palace. Five Charlemagne frescoes by Alfred Rethel decorate the walls, and copies of the imperial insignia (orb, sword, crown), and a Carolingian manuscript can also be viewed. Since 1949, the International Charlemagne Prize has been awarded here by the city of Aachen in recognition of services to promote understanding between the peoples of Europe. |

Mystère et artistique!
C'est une jolie photo.
Je devine que le
redimensionnement à
diminué un peu la qualité.
Est-ce possible?
Peace
