About Schuir
What are the main landmarks in Schuir?
One name does the work. Haus Schuir is the district's sole entry on the record of notable buildings, a property so closely bound to the ground about it that house and quarter answer to the same word. There is little else to photograph.
Schuir sends its sightseers into Essen proper, and keeps for itself the quieter business of being lived in.
What is the history of Schuir?
The register gives Schuir barely a line. Schuir enters it through Haus Schuir, the one building whose standing was thought worth setting down, and through its place among the quarters into which Essen divides itself. Nothing fixes a starting date.
What lasts is the name itself, shared by house and district, and still the plainest thing anyone can say about this corner of Essen in Germany.
Where is Schuir?
Schuir takes in close to seven square kilometres of Essen, an expanse of ground much larger than the cluster of buildings around Haus Schuir.
