Lichtenfels Forest
The Lichtenfels Forest (german: Lichtenfelser Forst) is a forest northwest of the town of Lichtenfels in Upper Franconia in northern Bavaria, Germany. The vegetation consists mostly of the coniferous trees, with small areas mixed with forests of oak and birch. During the High Middle Ages the vast forest was the property of the Banz Abbey. The northern edge of the forest in the 13th Century was inhabited by the Lords of Sonneberg. The places Grub am Forst and its district Roth am Forst (which name is indicative of a settlement created by the clearing of the forest), Weißenbrunn am Forst and Buch am Forst all owe their names to their locations on the outskirts of the Lichtenfels Forest. When the federal highway Bundesautobahn 73 was under construction, there were some protests by environmental conservation groups because the route was planned to cut through the Lichtenfels Forest; e.g. a lawsuit filed by ''Bund für Umwelt und Naturschutz Deutschland'' erman, “Confederation f ...

Federal Administrative Court Of Germany
The Federal Administrative Court (german: Bundesverwaltungsgericht, ) is one of the five federal supreme courts of Germany. It is the court of the last resort for generally all cases of administrative law, mainly disputes between citizens and the state. It hears appeals from the ''Oberverwaltungsgerichte'', or Superior Administrative Courts, which, in turn, are the courts of appeals for decisions of the ''Verwaltungsgerichte'' (administrative courts). However, cases concerning social security law belong to the jurisdiction of the ''Sozialgerichte'' (Social Courts) with the Bundessozialgericht as federal court of appeals, and cases of tax and customs law are decided by the ''Finanzgerichte'' (Finance Courts), and, ultimately, by the Bundesfinanzhof. The ''Bundesverwaltungsgericht'' has its seat at the former Reichsgericht (Imperial Court of Justice) building in Leipzig's district Mitte.

House Of Sonneberg
A house is a single-unit residential building. It may range in complexity from a rudimentary hut to a complex structure of wood, masonry, concrete or other material, outfitted with plumbing, electrical, and heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems.Schoenauer, Norbert (2000). ''6,000 Years of Housing'' (rev. ed.) (New York: W.W. Norton & Company). Houses use a range of different roofing systems to keep precipitation such as rain from getting into the dwelling space. Houses may have doors or locks to secure the dwelling space and protect its inhabitants and contents from burglars or other trespassers. Most conventional modern houses in Western cultures will contain one or more bedrooms and bathrooms, a kitchen or cooking area, and a living room. A house may have a separate dining room, or the eating area may be integrated into another room. Some large houses in North America have a recreation room. In traditional agriculture-oriented societies, domestic animals such as c ...
