Excerpt from A Run Round: Rothenburg O. Lauher In the 9th century, Pharamond, King of the East Franks, founded the Burg, Of which nothing remains but the ruins Of St. Blasius Chapel in the park, and the massive tower and its cluster of little houses with their sharp pointed roofs at the base.

The Church of the Knights Templar Of St. John was included in this circle, but the Franciskaner Kirche was outside the walls.
