At first, our visit to Wei\u00dfenfels was not under a good star. It rained continuously. But as we all know, there is no such thing as bad weather, only the wrong clothes. So we set off for our appointment with umbrella and rain jacket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
We were greeted by a wonderful city guide who made us forget the weather with her stories and knowledge about Wei\u00dfenfels and captivated us. Her stories made the town’s history come alive, varied and exciting. Thank you very much!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our little tour started directly at the city park of Wei\u00dfenfels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Today’s city park has quite a varied history. Originally, the area lay outside the city and served as a shooting trench. In 1522 there was a plague epidemic in the city and the existing cemeteries were no longer sufficient. Without further ado, the area outside the city was used as a cemetery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
