Fürth

Understand

During the Middle Ages Fuerth was jointly governed by the city of Nuremberg, the bishop of Bamberg and the count of Ansbach. Therefore Fuerth's coat of arms shows a cloverleaf. Fuerth is also older than Nuremberg, dating back to November 1007. See "1000 Jahre Fürth" at (http://www.1000-jahre-fue...) German only. Fuerth had a large Jewish population Levi's founder Levi Strauss for example, also Henry Kissinger, who was born in Fuerth and fled to the USA when the Nazis came to power.
