I showed the institutional care building which is being partly demolished last week. This week there is a glimpse of the administration building which will be kept. I particularly like the five narrow windows with the sandstone frames.

In the Middle of It
This parish hall in Schriesheim has been changed into a café and a meeting venue (still under the auspices of the neighbouring protestant church), The windows have mostly stayed the same.

The Water Tower in Mannheim-Wallstadt
Built in 1904, it was operational from 1905 and secured the water supply for the independent town of Wallstadt (it became part of Mannheim 1929).
Today these old water towers are privately owned and inhabited. The living quarters are usually downstairs but the top floors are accessible. Imagine sitting up high in your own private tower and overlooking the whole of the Rhine valley, from the hills of the Odenwald to the hills of the Palatinate Forest.
Ironically, I only took photos of the upper storey windows.

As Pretty as a Picture
A Monday Window for Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge. This Monday I showed off the windows in the fences and walls of the zoo of Worms. The zoo is inclusive and these windows allow small children and visitors in wheelchairs to see into enclosures. This goat was particularly obliging and posed for me.
