Straubing

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.01 sec.
Straubing (shtrou`bĭng), city (1994 pop. 43,586), Bavaria, SE Germany, on the Danube (Donau) River. It is an agricultural market of Lower Bavaria and an industrial center. Manufactures include machinery, electronics, and beer. Originally a Roman camp, Straubing later became (1353) the capital of the duchy of Bavaria-Straubing, which was ruled by a branch of the Wittelsbach family. Noteworthy buildings include the Peterskirche, a 12th-century Romanesque church; the Gothic Church of St. Jacob (15th–16th cent.); and the Gothic city hall (1382).

15 (ANI): Over 1,000 black garden gnomes with their right arms raised in a Heil Hitler salute have been put up in the German town of Straubing - all in the name of art.
Artist Ottmar Hoerl, who has already displayed his provocative gnomes in Belgium, Italy and two German art galleries, said the display in Straubing in Bavaria was the first one in public in Germany.
Straubing says the Spinco Metal Products quality department is consistently monitoring the requirements of the compressor manufacturers, desiccant manufacturers and industry organizations that issue requirements related to new developments in the industry.
