Bautzen, the old town in the east of the Free State of Saxony, has a tumultuous history. In recent years, the city has been too narrowly defined by its image as a prison town. Author Eberhard Schmitt counters this with over 200 characterful photographs and postcards from the period of 1870 to 1960. His photo book honors the historical, picturesque aspects of Bautzen and helps to adjust the perspective a bit. Allow yourself to be invited on a walk through time to experience Bautzen in a way you probably have never seen before.
