Germany: Isenburg Castle in Offenbach am Main

Today I got two postcards from Germany.

One of them shows the Isenburg Castle in Offenbach am Main. Offenbach am Main is a big city in the German State of Hesse. It is the fifth largest city in its state. Once its was an important centre of the leather industry. Offenbach am Main is one of the cities in Germany where Germans without migrant background make up a minority of the population. The German Meteorological Service has its headquarters in the city. The Isenburg Castle was built in the 16th century in the Renaissance style. Today it is used by the University of Art and Design Offenbach.
