Who doesn't know them: the postcards and posters with retro motifes in the style of the 1920s from popular cities and vacation spots around the world. So here's what we thought: Why shouldn't there be such for the West Palatinate as well?
The idea: There is to be a poster for each of the four counties and three independent cities in the West Palatinate. The posters are being designed by a very talented illustrator from Portugal, who has implemented all our ideas wonderfully and uniquely so far.
At the end of 2021, the region's districts kicked things off with the motif of Berwartstein Castle in the Südwestpfalz [South-West Palatinate], followed by the second poster with a romantic vineyard landscape and a view over the Zellertal valley in the Nordpfalz [North Palatinate], Donnersberg district. The third poster represents the district of Kusel with the motif of the Potzberg. Motif number four in the series and representing the district of Kaiserslautern: the beautiful Karlstal.
Now that all 4 districts have been depicted in retro style, we continue with the independent cities. Kaiserslautern is the first of the three independent cities with the motif of St. Martin's Square in the old town. This is followed by the shoe town of Pirmasens, represented by the beautiful castle fountain, and now our latest motif of the town of Zweibrücken. Here the characteristics of the town, namely horses and roses, are depicted in front of Zweibrücken Castle.
We offer the posters and matching postcards free of charge. They can be picked up at our office (Bahnhofstr. 26 - 28 in Kaiserslautern) or, if desired, sent by mail and for a flat shipping fee of 12€. Pre-orders can be made at westpfalz.de/retroposter
