Ansbach was a small town largely by-passed by the Industrial Revolution, an administrative and cultural center. Although all bridges were destroyed, the historical center of Ansbach was spared during World War II and it has kept its baroque character. Ansbach hosts several units of the U.S. armed forces, associated with German units under NATO.
In January 2008 the Ansbach University of Applied Sciences came to first place of the "Hochschulranking" (English: University Ranking) which was processed by UNIcheck.de. Despite the fact that the survey cannot be considered as representative it is still an honor for the young and dynamic university.
