Getreidegasse at night...Salzburg

#EuropeanTravel #Getreide #Salzburg #Austria
The signs on Getreidegasse have a beauty that has a reason.
Each building has many artistic iron signs that express the characteristics of the stores, creating a unique and beautiful atmosphere. The iron signs that made this place known as the most beautiful shopping street in the world started in the Middle Ages when illiteracy was prevalent to indicate what kind of store it was.
Some of these signs are over 200 years old, and it is quite interesting that modern fast food stores have also hung iron signs to match the street atmosphere.
They say there are people who specialize in repairing iron signs.
However, the stores close early, so enjoy the night view for a short time.
