The 'Silberzeile' of Schärding, Austria

A main attraction of the Austrian city of Schärding is the “Silberzeile”. It is a row of coloured houses in the style of the late Baroque period. In earlier times, each colour symbolised a particular guild. I love the curved gable fronts. They give the house facades a soft appearance.

The city of Schärding is a member of the Associaton of the Small Historic Towns in Austria.
