content
The central Franconian town of Dinkelsbühl , a major tourist destination on the Romantic Road , is the focus of the short film. The city attracts tourists from all over the world due to the well-preserved late medieval cityscape.
You can see the Nördlinger Tor, the Hezelhof, a patrician house from the 16th century, and the Rothenburg Gate Tower, where torture once took place. In addition to the Minster and St. Paul's Church , it goes through some romantic alleys, where horse-drawn carriages are also available for tourists.
Production, publication
The film was produced by Warner Brothers Scope Gem, which created marketing short films under this name in CinemaScope widescreen format, which were mainly travel reports.
Time Stood Still premiered in the United States on April 21, 1956.
