Pictures from the town where I grow up

It was difficult for me to pick something. I’ve lived in many places so I chose two images from the town where I was born and raised and lived until my early twenties , Fredericia , Denmark. The city center was build around a wall system to protect it from enemies during the many wars between approx 1650 - 1850. Every year around the 5th and 6th of July the town celebrates its victory against the Germans in 1849 with a big town celebration where you hear the old canons in the morning and flowers are laid down by the big statue of “Landsoldaten” the foot soldier. Nowadays it’s also just a big town party with lots of activities for the whole family.
