More Rothenburg obT

Some more RobT pix, under the general heading of religion in Rothenburg.

An interesting chapel outside the walls, with very old-looking
frescoes

And this, the 1298 pogrom memorial stone; unfortunately, not the last such 
event in Rothenburg

In the Franciscan church in town

This Tilman  Riemanschneider altar panel

One of the several Kathe Wohlfahrt Christmas stores, for which Rothenburg is
 most famous

A clandestine shot inside the Kathe Wohlfahrt Christmas crap
museum

And, at the main St. James city church

One of the greatest of all German church carvings,
Riemanschneider's Holy Blood, c. 1505

A bit closer-up; it is displayed against a west-facing set of
windows, not helpful for viewing in the afternoon...

Current altarpiece, by Friedrich Herlin, 1466; nice
windows too

Interior of St. James

Although Calvinism never achieved great success in Germany, capitalism is
