Fürth

Fürth in Southern Germany has first been mentioned in documents in 1007. At that time, the place belonged to Bamberg, the earl of Ansbach and the city of Nürnberg. Needless to say that when being governed by three different institutions, conflicts were unavoidable. I guess they were more than glad when they were finally considered a town on its own in 1808.
