Bombed out of existence in 1945 but bounced back as a small modern city. We visited the Bishops palace, some survived WWII and some restored. Magnificent opulence. You have to admire the skill and atistry of the architects and decorators butall done at the expence of the populace who were made poorer while the rich got richer. Sorry not allowed to take pics.
Passed through many locks on the canalised Main river. Just a big version of the English canals with German engineering added. Countryside is very picturesque with many villages containing church spires, old houses and relics of the past. Characteristics are whitewash plaster and red sandstone features.
And note the musical dessert.
What's in the dessert?
ReplyDeleteFrom memory it was a pear and wine compote with berry jus and cream. Very tasty!
