It shows the SiegfriedMuseum in Xanten. According to the legend of the Nibelungs, the mythical Siegfried was born in the city. Although this tradition was abused by the Nazis, the city now also uses it for its city marketing. In 2010 a museum about the legend of the Nibelungs and its reception was opened. Originally called Nibelungen[h]ort, it is now the SiegfriedMuseum. Unfortunately I was not able to find any information why it was renamed or when.
One of the two stamps showing a panorama of Bonn (issued 02-01-2020), the former capital of West Germany, was used on this card.
Thank You very much Marcel!
