What's the connection between the items in the picture and Derendingen?
Don't worry, you don't need to identify all of the pictures. You only need to find a person and the european capital city where the memorials at the left and upper side are located. After that, it's five more questions to the coordinates.
A
There's a street with a matching name in Derendingen... and another one in the capital city you hopefully identified. At the western end of the latter there's a square with lots of tourists and a bridge - or maybe multiple bridges?
The number of bridges belonging together is A.
B
In which year has the 2-Euro-coin been issued?
The year of the issue (that's identical to the year minted on the coin) is B.
(In case this answer might become ambigous in future, use the first issue. Currently it's unique.)
C
When did Derendingen start to play a role?
The year of moving to Derendingen is C.
D
The statue on the left in the picture has a little brother much closer to Derendingen - not really close, though, but located in a small town about one hour by train away. There it's located in the court of a institution which also exists in Tübingen, besides a large church.
Of this church you need the patron, and of the name of the patron the position of the letter in the alphabet. This is D. (Example: If it was a Saint Gallus church, it would be 7 for G.)
E
Also in the inner city of Tübingen, at N 48°31.191' E 9°03.153', there's a little memorial plate for a historical event connected with the theme. However, modern research believes that this plate is mislocated and should be placed in another southern german town.
Of this plate you need the year of production engraved in the lower right corner. This is E.

Das Rätsel war schon seit ein paar Wochen gelöst, doch irgendwie kam ich nie so richtig in die Gegend. Heute konnte ich dann aber endlich nach kurzer Suche das kleine Logbuch signieren.
