Attendorn, located in the south of the hilly Sauerland region, was an (indirect) member of the Hanseatic League ("Hanse") represented at the great assemblies by the town of Soest. But - since 2012 - it is "Hansestadt Attendorn". In Hanseatic times this building, erected around 1350, was the city hall of Attendorn with an open ground floor for the merchants. Over the centuries the structure crumbled, but in the 1960s it was decided to renovate and rebuild it. Now it hosts the "Südsauerlandmuseum". www.suedsauerlandmuseum.de/suedsauerlandmuseum/

But - since 2012 - it is "Hansestadt Attendorn" - and even the new manhole covers in Attendorn know that. They are pretty proud about the new inscription!

But - since 2012 - it is "Hansestadt Attendorn". St. Johannes Baptist (aka "Sauerländer Dom") is the parish church of Attendorn. During excavations in the 1970s, remains of three predecessing churches could be found. The massive tower of the church dates to the early 13th century. The Gothic nave was erected in the second half of the 14th century. The baptismal font is older than the church and was probably in use already in the 11th century.
