  • The Town of Brig with Its Historic Old Quarter and the Stockalper Palace Lies in the Sunny Upper Valais at the Foot of the Simplon Pass
    Brig The town of Brig with its historic old quarter and the Stockalper Palace lies in the sunny Upper Valais at the foot of the Simplon Pass. Situated at an important junction, Brig is an ideal starting point for excursions. It is close to hiking and ski regions on the Lötschberg and Simplon, and in the Aletsch. It also has its own thermal baths, making it an attractive holiday resort. Brig Belalp Tourismus Bahnhofplatz 1 3900 Brig T +41 (0)27 921 60 30 F +41 (0)27 921 60 31 [email protected] http://www.brig-belalp.ch 200 m 1000 ft The lovely old town with its stately houses, cosy inns and hotels will tempt you to linger awhile. Lively Bahnhofstrasse is great for shopping, and the Stockalper Palace in Brig is one of the most important baroque palaces in Switzerland. The history of Brig is closely linked with the Simplon Pass, one of the most beautiful alpine passes which starts immediately beyond the city gates. Napoleon built a road through the Simplon Pass in the 19th century to move his armies, thus creating the first man-made road in the Alps. © MySwitzerland.com - Schweiz Tourismus - Page 1/6 Brig is a perfect starting point for an excursion to Zermatt or Saas-Fee, for example. It also lies along the route of the famous Glacier Express, which links Zermatt and St. Moritz. Going south, Brig is the General Info most northerly border station for the Simplon railway tunnel to Italy. To the east, you pass through Canton: Valais Goms, and the Furka Pass leads to central Switzerland; the Grimsel Pass into the Bernese Postcode/ZIP: 3900 - 3900 Oberland; and the Nufenen Pass into the Ticino.

  • City of Displacement: on the Unsteadiness of Berlin Sites and Sights1
    WEIMARPOLIS, Multi-disciplinary Journal of Urban Theory and Practice Vol. 1, Issue 2, pp. 53-64, ISSN 1869-1692 City of Displacement: On the unsteadiness of Berlin sites and sights1 Marc Schalenberg Helsinki Collegium for Advanced Studies Email: [email protected] Abstract This essay starts from the observation that the city of Berlin, throughout the 20th century, has been particularly prone to shift buildings in their entirety or in parts to other sites. These shiftings have to be seen against their specific backgrounds, such as war destruction, technological refurbishment, myth making, symbolic or memory politics by the respective political regime, resuming the “spirit” or name of a place for reasons of identification or marketing. But beyond those, the disposition to translocate can be understood as symptomatic in a city whose narratives, images and practices have been explicitly oriented towards the “new”, “unsteady” and “shiftable”. Attempts to remove material objects – not less than their meanings – are to be found in completely diverse political and cultural contexts. It seems an interesting challenge, therefore, to transcend the level of individual instances of displacements and try to test some concepts recently suggested in Urban Studies, like “habitus” or “intrinsic logic” for Berlin. Zusammenfassung Der Beitrag geht von der in Berlin vor allem im 20. Jahrhundert auffallenden Bereitschaft aus, Bauwerke oder Teile von ihnen an andere Orte der Stadt zu versetzen. Jenseits der konkreten Hintergründe (z.B. Kriegszerstörung, technische Modernisierung, „Mythenbildung“, Symbol- und Erinnerungspolitik des jeweiligen politischen Regimes, Anknüpfen an den „Geist“ eines Ortes bzw. Namens aus identifikatorischen oder kommerziellen Gründen) wird diese Disposition als symptomatisch verstanden für eine Stadt, deren Narrative, (Selbst-) Bilder und Praktiken stark am „Neuen“, „Unsteten“ und „Verrückbaren“ orientiert waren und sind.

  • Castles of a Dynasty— the Hohenzollern Route
    Explore the highlights of the Hohenzollern Route and discover the history of one of Germany’s most influential dynasties. BY ZAC STEGER Castles of a Dynasty— The Hohenzollern Route he year 2008 quietly marked ninety years since Kaiser Wilhelm II was forced to abdicate, bringing an end to World War I and TImperial Germany. As one of the oldest and most influential families in Europe, the Hohenzollerns had made the Kingdom of Prus- sia the most dominant German-speaking power and, under the guid- ance of Otto von Bismarck, united the various duchies, principalities, and kingdoms into the German Empire. Their story begins far from Berlin in the hills of Swabia along the Hohenzollernstrasse (Hohen- zollern Route), where two castles explore the history of one of Europe’s Top: Sigmaringen Castle. Above: most powerful dynasties. Portraits of the Hohenzollern family and the original castle guestbook. Courtesy Stretching around three hundred kilometers, the Hohenzollern Zac Steger. Route takes visitors through the former territories of the family in southern Baden-Württemberg. Sights include the moated castle at Glatt, Beuron Abbey, and Schloss Haigerloch, site of the world’s first 40 GERMAN LIFE · AUGUST/SEPTEMBER 2009 atomic reactor. However, two castles are must-sees: the ancestral seat of Burg Hohenzollern and Schloss Sigmaringen, seat of the Swabian family line. A medieval chronicle traces the origins of the House of Hohen- zollern back to the brothers Burchard and Wezil von Zollern, two knights who died in battle in 1061. It was in this same century that the first Hohenzollern fortress near Hechingen is mentioned, though little is known about it.

    All roads lead to Ticino! ticino.ch/wege-ins-tessin The itinerary becomes part of the holiday: discover the best one for an exciting trip! “It’s marvelously rich and beautiful and there is everything, from the alpine landscapes to the Mediterranean ones” with these words the Nobel prize winner Hermann Hesse described Ticino, his adoptive homeland. Glaciers and palm trees, lakes and mountains, ancient churches and modern architecture, silent valleys and vibrating cities generate an harmonic ambiance. As various as Ticino’s attitudes are, as various are the ways to reach the region: it doesn’t matter whether you come by plane, car, train, bus, bicycle or on foot. Myriad of roads lead you to the sunny South of Switzerland: Ticino. Your journey begins only a stone’s throw away from you home. By train. Travelling by train in Switzerland is comfortable and very reliable; thanks to the world’s best rail system. Numerous international trains arrive in Ticino every hour from the gateways Basel und Zurich, stopping in Bellinzona, Lugano, Mendrisio and Locarno. The TILO-train offers connections within the main cities in Ticino every 20 minutes. By car. Ticino is easily accessible by car. The shortest way from the North to the South of the Alps is through the Gotthard road tunnel or the alpine pass. A modern and efficient motorway runs through all Ticino (A2). The Gotthard tunnel (17 kilometers) allows travellers to avoid climbing the majestic alpine passes. It is for 125 years that this tunnel has been linking the North with the South. By plane.
