Each city has its own history, its own peculiarities and an own soul. Some grew around the local lord’s castle, others resulted from several villages gathering together, others still evolved from a single hamlet that expanded into a town first and then eventually into a big city. Some of them are beautiful, some are famous, some are hardly worth mentioning – such is life. Here you may find the ones that someone has considered worthy of being remembered in a book.
