The administratively independent city of Fürth in Middle Franconia in Bavaria combines two things that, over the centuries, have often led to conflict:  knowledge and tradition. Nowadays, this city in the metropolitan region of Nuremberg is a magnet for students and creative young entrepreneurs with innovative ideas. In recent decades, several university institutions and industrial zones have flourished, as well as the high-tech enterprise park at Uferstadt, and these are attracting young people in particular to Fürth. However, this modern, forward-thinking ambience has not yet taken over the historic city centre. Between the rivers Rednitz and Pegnitz, there are rows of buildings with decorative façades, some featuring the straight lines of the Gründerzeit period (2nd half of 19th century)  and others from the more ornate Jugendstil period. There are also buildings dating back to even earlier times in the city centre. In fact, Fürth has the fourth highest density of protected buildings in Germany. And there are lots of cafés, bars and restaurants to explore in these ancient buildings.
