Deane & Norm's Motorcycle Trip in

Northern & Eastern Europe and Scandinavia

 

July 27, Prague, Czech Republic to Heilbronn, Germany

 525 Km (325 Miles)

We are now starting to return to the area where we rented the motorcycles, Heidelberg, Germany

The big attraction today was the castle Rothenburg Ober der Tauber river.  This castle was a walled city in roman times, and of course has been modified several times over time.

Now the castle is a tourist shopping area, but for us the interest was in sections of the wall, moats, large and small entry ways and so forth.  Very interesting.

The main gate into the walled city.

The moat on either side of the entry stone wall and gate.

A view of the interior houses.

Norm and "I was there".

Deane and the Glockenspiel.  Figures come out of the top two windows when the clock chimes.

This was a very interesting day, with the castle and the beautiful scenery in this part of Germany.
