Rothenburg ob der Tauber

Hello from Rothenburg. I hope you have enjoyed reading about our trip to Deutschland! I have been very busy and there hasn't been internet connectivity where I have been traveling. Rothenburg ob der Tauber is one of the few mid-evil cities left in Europe. It was spared large scale bombing due to an arrangement with U.S. and German military leaders to save the city. Today the cities walls have been rebuilt along with the cathedrals and towers all for the pleasure of its tourists.

We have enjoyed the many picturesque buildings and gates. The picture below is of the most photographed gate in the world. Down to the right is one of my favorite wells in Rothenburg. It depicts St. George killing the dragon. St. George is the patron saint of Bavaria and he is found just about everywhere.
We mostly wandered about the city shopping and went sightseeing.


See you all soon,
Jeremy
