Squared gothic
This one is gothic but it also has something that looks
German. The stroke is very thick and the curves are
squared. It seems to be build with flat panels.
Outstanding letters
These letters seem to be written with a quill. They are
quite ornamental and complex.

Another example of gothic font. It looks quite old and
it reminds of the ancient books written by hand.
