Historical Tidbit

As the French withdrew from Nienburg in 1814/15, Emanuel Bruno Quaet Faslem (*1785 in Dendermonde [today the city partner of Nienburg] †1851) was named honorary citizen in 1821 and appointed Senator of Nienburg in 1830. The Belgian architect became the most important man in the architectural history of Nienburg. King Ernst August von Hannover promoted him to head architect in his time. Today's honorary citizen was supposed to have said: "When I came to Nienburg, the town was no more than a calf stable, but the city had to grow."
