In the Middle Ages, the Regensburg Jewish quarter was located on the site of the square . Since 981 AD, there is evidence of a Jewish community in Regensburg. There are 39 houses today, including some public buildings such as the synagogue . The Jewish community had its own administration, a seal and its own judges. Religious hatred of the Jews, accusations of ritual murder , economic interests of the inhabitants, merchants and artisans led in Regensburg in the turning period from the 15th to the 16th century to demand that the emperor be allowed to expel the Jews. Emperor Maximilian I., who acted as their protector against payment by the Jews, rejected the city's desire because his financial interests were not secured in terms of the expected repayment sum. The council of the city remained in the following years in the demand for expulsion of Jews and the Regensburg cathedral preacher Balthasar Hubmaier heated the mood against the Jews significantly. When the emperor died in 1519, the council of the city took advantage of the hour and it came in a planned, the imperial captain Thomas Fuchs von Wallburg allegedly surprising action to expel the Jewish community (then about 500 citizens), the demolition of the synagogue and the remaining buildings of the district.
In the middle of the square stands the Neupfarrkirche from 1540. The Renaissance building was originally built as a Catholic pilgrimage church. The anti-Semitic Marian pilgrimage arose immediately after the destruction of the Jewish quarter. In the later legend of the miraculous Maria, she was traced back to an alleged miracle during the destruction of the former synagogue on the square. A few years after its establishment, the town council became a Protestant denomination in 1542 and the church became the first Protestant parish church.
On the south side of the square is the Palais Löschenkohl (Neupfarrplatz 14) Regensburg banker Jerome Löschenkohl to plans by 1733 Johann Michael Prunner in rococo was built style. After the bankruptcy of the business in 1743, the Electoral Saxon mission to the Perpetual Diet was housed there until 1806 , later a department store and a cinema. Today, here is a branch of Commerzbank .
Air raid shelters built by the National Socialists in 1939/40 and a fire-fighting water cistern damaged the foundations of the Jewish ghetto. On the east side of the square many houses were demolished in favor of a controversial new department store in the 1970s. Parts of the facade of the former Hauptwache, built in 1818 to plans by Michael Dobmayr - not, as is often assumed, by Emanuel Herigoyen - were integrated into the department store. In the 90s, the square was traffic calmed and redesigned.
During construction work to redesign the square in 1995 west of the Neupfarrkirche found the remains of the Gothic synagogue destroyed in 1519 and a Romanesque predecessor building from the 11th or 12th century. Previously, the synagogue had been suspected directly under the Neupfarrkirche. By Albrecht Altdorfer there are two detailed etchings of the synagogue, which facilitated the identification. During the excavations in the following years, large parts of the medieval cellars of the Jewish quarter were uncovered and found, among other things, a gold treasure from the 14th century with 624 gold coins and a finger ring with the seal of the Jewish community. The gold treasure is today in the Historical Museumto see. The local political conflicts over the excavations provoked strong civic engagement, which affected the extent and nature of the excavations (1995-97). Designed by Regensburg architects Lydia Lehner and Franz Robold Information Center document Neupfarrplatz today introduced multimedia, the 2000-year history of the place. In the underground showrooms walls of the Roman military camp, three basement of the medieval Jewish quarter, foundations are the Neupfarrkirche and parts a ring bunker built in 1940. A documentary leads the visitor virtually through the ages. The Israeli artist Dani Karavanmade the floor plan of the synagogue visible through a white concrete walk-in bas-relief inaugurated on July 13, 2005 .

Places to see in ( Regensburg - Germany )
Regensburg is a city in south-east Germany, situated at the confluence of the Danube, Naab and Regen rivers. Regensburg is the fourth-largest city in the State of Bavaria after Munich, Nuremberg and Augsburg. The city of Regensburg is the political, economic and cultural centre of Eastern Bavaria and the capital of the Bavarian administrative region Upper Palatinate.
The medieval centre of the city of Regensburg is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a testimony of the city's status as cultural centre of southern Germany in the Middle Ages. In 2014, Regensburg was among the top sights and travel attractions in Germany. Generally known in English as Ratisbon until well into the twentieth century, the city is known as Ratisbonne in French and as Ratisbona in Italian, Portuguese and Albanian.
Regensburg is situated on the northernmost part of the Danube river at the geological crossroads of four distinct landscapes:
To the north and northeast lies the Bavarian Forest (Bayerischer Wald) with granite and gneiss mountains, wide forests and its national park. To the east and south-east is the fertile Danube plain (Gäuboden) which are highly cultivated loess plains. The south is dominated by the tertiary hill country (Tertiär-Hügelland), a continuation of Alpine foothills. To the West is Franconian Jura (Fränkische Jura).
Regensburg Hauptbahnhof (central station) is connected to lines to Munich, Nuremberg, Passau, Hof and Ingolstadt and Ulm. The city lies also on two motorways, the A3 from Cologne and Frankfurt to Vienna, and the A93 from Holledau to Hof.

The Goliathhaus in Goliathstraße 4 in the old town of Regensburg is a crenellated former patrician castle. The house name probably dates from the 12th century and designated the predecessor, which served as a hostel of the so-called Goliades . This hostel is said to have been called Golias or Goliath House, a name that was then adopted as the Goliath House in 1260.
The monumental mural, created in 1573 by Melchior Bocksberger depicting the scene David versus Goliath so that does not count as the namesake of the building. Goliath symbolizes in it the haughty merchant who loses against the honest merchant (= David ). The early Gothic The building with gothic window arcades was since 1290 the seat of the patrician family Thundorfer.

Places to see in ( Regensburg - Germany ) Scots Portal
Places to see in ( Regensburg - Germany ) Scots Portal
The most famous architectural element of the church is its north portal (the Schottenportal), which occupies a full third of the north wall, and is richly decorated with both ornamental and figural sculptures. The proper interpretation of this sculptural program has been debated since the beginning of the 19th century. In the 1990s it was suggested that only the tympanum, archivolt, and jambs formed an original composition of the 12th century, while the remaining portions of the Schottenportal were assembled from spolia during the Renaissance. While this theory would have absolved art historians of the duty of interpreting the program as a unified whole, it has not met with wide acceptance. Indeed, a thorough examination of the structure seems to have demonstrated conclusively that the entire portal was assembled in the late 12th century, simultaneously with the construction of the second church.
The portal is divided into thirds both horizontally and vertically. At the lowest level, the door is framed at the center by richly decorated jambs, at each side of which stands a flat field interspersed with various relief sculptures. The second level is occupied by the tympanum and archivolt at the center and by blind arcades with caryatids at right and left. At the top, a frieze showing Christ with the twelve apostles stands at the middle, while figureless blind arcades stand at either side. The interpretation of the tympanum is relatively uncontroversial: it portrays Christ, at the center, flanked by Sts. James and John. Numerous explanations for the remaining figures have been proposed; here only that of Richard Strobel has been presented.
There are various indications that the left side, as one faces the portal, is more highly regarded than the right. Its entablature carries a rich interlace, while that at right is undecorated; the arcade in the middle zone is filled by a row of human heads, while that at right is filled with those of animals. The central sculpture in the lowest zone at left, which is set on a throne and projects significantly from the ground, clearly represents Mary with the Christ child; the former, as the new Eve, holds an apple, while the latter holds the book of life. The reliefs at either side show human figures caressing each other, that is, in attitudes of harmony. The corresponding central figure on the lowest zone at right, on the other hand, is bracketed by aggressive, hostile beasts; this may represent the Antichrist.
However, if the central figures at left and right are understood to stand for good and evil, respectively, the reliefs beneath them seem to represent a reversal of the situation. At left, a dragon is shown swallowing a lion, while at the lowermost level a siren appears, a symbol of temptation. At right, a crocodile is shown swalling a hydrus, wrapped in a ball of clay. According to a medieval legend, the hydrus, once inside, would destroy the crocodile from within; the story was understood to represent the Harrowing of Hell. At the lowermost level monks are depicted with gospel books in hand, thus pilgrims and missionaries. Therefore, if the central figures at left are auspicious, while those at right carry negative connotations, the exact opposite situation prevails at the lowest levels.

Bewegung in Bildung - Flashmob Regensburg am 25.1.2014 (Vogelperspektive)
Der Bewegung in Bildung-Flashmob geht in die zweite Runde.
Am 25.1.2014 fanden sich erneut rund 350 Junglehrer ein, diesmal auf dem Regensburger Neupfarrplatz, um auf ihr Anliegen aufmerksam zu machen.
Die Teilnehmer versammelten sich zunächst in einer langen Schlange hinter einer roten Linie, welche den Einstellungsstop des bayerischen Kultusministeriums symbolisiert. Nach einigen Minuten Wartezeit zertraten die jungen Lehrer die mitgebrachte bunte Kreide, da sie diese in Zukunft unter den gegebenen Umständen nicht mehr brauchen werden, und verließen den Neupfarrplatz schließlich, ohne die rote Linie zu übertreten.

Living in Germany: Regensburg and Walhalla (with locals)
Regensburg on Andrew Smith's channel:
Regensburg Germany is a beautiful Bavarian city between Nuremberg and Munich. I’ve been driving past this city for years so I thought it was finally time to visit Regensburg with some locals. What to do in Regensburg? Well, the first stop was Walhalla. This is a huge temple situated right outside of Regensburg. Walhalla is a hall of fame temple that honors hundreds of distinguished German figures such as artists, politicians, and scientists.
After taking in the views of Walhalla, we met up with locals in the city. Our locals showed us a bunch of Regensburg attractions including the Regensburg cathedral, the original Roman wall, the oldest fast food restaurant in the world, and stone bridge. After city adventures, our locals took us west on a bike ride along the Danube river where we stopped for beer and snacks.

Regensburg, a Bavarian city on the Danube River in southeast Germany, is known for its well-preserved medieval core. The 12th-century Stone Bridge, a 310m-long icon with 16 arches, crosses the river to the old town. The 13th-century Regensburg Cathedral, a twin-spired Gothic landmark, is home to the Regensburger Domspatzen choir. Walhalla, a Parthenon replica just east of the city, honors illustrious Germans.
The capital of the Oberpfalz region of Bavaria, Regensburg dates back to Roman times and was the first capital of Bavaria. Two thousand years of history bequeathed the city some of the region’s finest architectural heritage, a fact recognised by Unesco in 2006. Though big on the historical wow factor, today’s Regensburg is a laid-back, studenty and unpretentious sort of place and it's tangle of old streets a joy to wander.
Regensburg is one of Germany's oldest towns, founded by the Romans in 179 AD. It's in the German federal state of Bavaria, at the northernmost point of the river Danube. As capital of the district of Upper Palatinate and also its biggest settlement, Regensburg today is a thriving city of about 137,000 inhabitants. It has two universities and many landmarks and little chapels, most dating back to the Middle Ages (e.g. the Cathedral of St. Peter, the Old City Hall and Imperial Diet, and the Stone Bridge). According to legend there are so many chapels here, that there would always be at least one church bell ringing. Since 2006 the historic city center of Regensburg and Stadtamhof has been a UNESCO World Heritage site. Because of its narrow alleys Regensburg is often called the northernmost city of Italy.
Regensburg grew to strength and prosperity during the Middle Ages. In the 9th century Regensburg was one of the most important cities in the Kingdom of the East Franks. Through the long-distance trade to Paris, Kiev and Venice Regensburg experienced an economic boom in the 12th and 13th century and was one of the most populous and prosperous cities. A sign of the prosperity of the time is the construction of the Stone Bridge (c. 1135-1146). In 1245, Emperor Frederick II raised Regensburg to the Free Imperial City, and remained so until 1803.
Regensburg economically regained some strength because of its role as a river port for crude oil imports from Eastern Europe. Although Regensburg was target to 20 allied bombings during World War II, because it was home to one of Messerschmitt's main aircraft factories as well as an oil refinery, the historic city center took only little damage. There were two sub-camps of the Flossenbürg concentration camp located in the vicinity of the town for a brief period of time in early 1945. In 1960 the university was founded and several large companies like Siemens, BMW, Infineon, and Toshiba built factories in the city. In 2006 Regensburg's historic city center was appointed a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Regensburg was also home to the German Pope - Joseph Ratzinger. He spent a long time in Regensburg and from 1969 on he taught theology at Regensburg University.
