27 - Signs

I was thinking of this theme for some time and eventually got an idea to go to the old town (again) and look around. Number of old renaissance houses has house signs on them, usually above the main entrance or somewhere on the front side. And often the houses are called after the sign - the house at Two Bears, at the Golden Snake, at the Green Frog, at the Black Star, at the Blue Horse, etc etc. I picked as the main photo the sign of the House at the Black Star that gained the sign in the late renaissance period in 17th century. And, for information, I'm adding the collage of some other signs that I saw during my stroll through the old town today.
