Brunswick

The Brunsick Lion
(http://en.wikipedia.org/w...) is the best-known landmark in the city of Brunswick. It stands on the Burgplatz square in front of Dankwarderode Castle and Brunswick Cathedral. Within Brunswick it is thus commonly known as the "castle lion" Burglöwe, giving the city its moniker Lion City Die Löwenstadt. Originally erected by Henry the Lion in 1166, it was replaced by a replica in 1980 due to damages to the original caused by air pollution. The original can be found inside Dankwarderode Castle.

With a caveat:
Bruchstrasse (http://de.wikipedia.org/w...) is Braunschweig's red light district. Referred to as Gurke gherkin or cucumber by locals, this area is off-limits to minors and "non-working "women women are likely to be subject to harrassment and verbal abuse through prostitutes when walking down this street, and shielded from public views by two iron gates. It has an interesting historic side to it though, since it is one of the oldest red lights districts in Germany, maybe in the world prostitution in this part of town was documented as early as 1594, featuring some Medieval-style timber-framed houses, which can be seen from outside the gates.
