Built 1700–1704, it hosts the university's administration.
A small but good museum of modern art with changing exhibitions, run by the city. Shares the former city hall and beautiful building in its own right Palais Sutterheim with the municipal library.
Built 1728 through 1730 for Amtshauptmann Christian Hieronymus von Stutterheim based on sketches by Wenzel Perner. Used as town hall between 1836 and 1971. Today, it hosts the museum Kunstpalais and the city's public library, which offers a magnificent public place to read magazines and newspapers. The University has a small but still impressive assortment of non-German language books as well as resources for language learning.
In the Schlossgarten park.
Built to supply the fountains within Schlossgarten and Orangerie. In the days of black pedagogics, it also housed the Karzer of the University where students who had broken one of the myriad rules were thrown. Ultimately it became a badge of honor for every student to have at least one Karzer sentence to their name and they tried to "leave their mark" on the walls (despite that of course also being against the rules).
This Reformed Church is the oldest building of the new town. Its impressive size and central location give testimony to the importance of the Reformed Huguenots to the history of Erlangen.
