12th September 2021 - We have left again! On the way to Bavaria in Germany for a special route: the “Romantische Strasse” – the romantic street.

Along the way, you'll discover several ancient castles and monasteries, and explore charming towns and villages that will take you back to a more romantic past. It is one of the most popular tourist routes in Germany. This 385 kilometre route runs from the River Main to the German Alps, from Würzburg to Füssen. In 2010, the route celebrated its 60th anniversary. The name Romantic Road refers to the feelings that many tourists and visitors get when they see the beautiful medieval towns and the special fairy tale castle Neuschwanstein.

On the route we will visit idyllic villages such as Rothenburg ob der Tauber and Dinkelsbuhl. You don't need a map or GPS. You simply follow the brown signs of the Romantic Road, which connect the villages and towns.

06.08.2018 - Hochschwarzwald
05/08/2018: alles ingeladen, de watertank voor een derde gevuld… Op naar het Zwarte Woud. Meer specifiek het zuiden en dit tot in Waldshut aan de grens met Zwitserland, het “Hochschwarzwald”.  20 jaar geleden waren we er al en een tweede bezoek is het zeker waard.  De startafstand (625 km) die we normaal in één dag doen, doen we nu rustiger aan. De eerste middag brengen we door in Mehring, een mooi dorp aan de Moezel.  De camperplaats (met zijn restaurant) ligt pal aan het water.  Gelukkig, ondanks of dank zij de hitte zijn er geen muggen.
Meer moest dat niet zijn. Luieren in een stoel aan het water, even wandelen en dan rustig een glaasje drinken op het terras van het plaatselijke restaurant.

Dag 2
We rijden richting Titisee. We hadden gereserveerd op camping Bühlhof. De bedoeling was om er een aantal dagen ter plaatse te overnachten. De camping is boven een berg gelegen en de weg er naartoe is zeer steil. Een ideale omgeving voor … berggeiten. De 170 pk van de mobilhome was meer dan welkom. De camping is oud maar zeer net, de plaatsen best ruim doch zeker niet vlak. Na de installatie verkennen we de camping en genieten nog na van een mooie avond.
Dag 3
Vandaag wandelen we naar het stadje Titisee aan het gelijknamige meer. Erheen wandelen is, ondanks de hitte, geen probleem. Terugkeren was een ander paar mouwen. Het gedeelte van de grote baan naar de camping was zoals eerder gezegd, een echte kuitenbijter en niet een baantje om meerdere keren per dag te voet af te leggen.
De Titisee is het meest toeristische meer van het Zwarte Woud. Een prachtig natuurlijk meer op een hoogte van zowat 840 meter. In het plaatsje zelf vind je talrijke winkels, restaurants. Het is er heerlijk vertoeven. In de hoofdstraat zijn veel souvenir winkels gelegen, waar je veel producten uit het zwarte woud zoals hammen en kersenmarmelade vindt, en heel veel koekoeksklokken. We konen niet weerstaan aan de streekproducten en kochten zwarte woudham en ‘wald’honing! Geoefende wandelaars kunnen rond het meer wandelen. Het pas is ongeveer 7 km lang. Op het meer kan je leuke boottochten maken. Met een excursieboot, roeibootje, pedalo, of een electrisch bootje. Het is ook een luchtkuuroord. Het is niet het grootste meer, dat is de Schluchsee.

Dag 4
Het is een weertje om luilekker te genieten op de camping. Ondanks de hoge temperaturen besluit ik, Dirk, om in de namiddag een wandeling te maken. Eén die start op de camping. Het pad naar de rand van het bos was al zeer steil. Toen ik boven aan de rand van het bos kwam, was ik blij dat ik even kon verpozen op een bankje. Een prachtig panoramisch zicht en wandelen tussen de koeien. Dat is het zwarte woud ten top.  ’s Nachts zorgt een stevig onweer ervoor dat alles opgefrist wordt.
Dag 5
Freiburg de belangrijkste stad van het Zwarte Woud. Het is nog steeds zeer warm.  Net aan de rand van de stad parkeren we op een grote camperplaats. Na een stevige wandeling (terugkeren doen we wijselijk met de tram) nemen we een kijkje in de talrijke historische straten en wandelen langs stadspoorten, de vele stadhuizen, marktpleinen, door winkelstraten en ... langs de beken! Ja, wel opletten als je in de straten van het centrum kuiert. In vele straten liggen nog kleine open beken (Bächle).
De Münsterkerk neemt prominent haar plaats in. In de Kaiser Joseph Strasse zijn vele grote warenhuizen gelegen.

Terwijl we op een terras genoten van een lekkere maaltijd werden we verrast door zowaar een windhoos. Deze trok over gans Freiburg. De zware parasols waaiden allen om, kleinere kozen het luchtruim. Servieten, tafellakens, stoelkussens, en zelfs stoelen gingen vliegen. We moesten in allerijl onze borden nemen en in het restaurant vluchten. Na twee minuten was alles voorbij en scheen de zon weer. Nu nog wat winkelen (eindelijk) en dan de tram op. Dit gratis! Dankzij onze KONUS gastenkaart.
SONY DSC
Wanneer op je vakantie bent in het Zwarte Woud krijg je op campings of in je hotel of gastenverblijf een Konus gastenkaart.

De uitdrukking “KONUS” komt van de vroegere universele sleutel die trein conducteurs ooit gebruikten om bussen en treinstellen te openen. Deze uitdrukking staat voor gratis gebruik van openbaar vervoer voor bezoekers aan het gehele Zware Woud. Er zijn enige uitzonderingen.
Na aankomst op je vakantiebestemming kun je je voertuig laten staan en brengt het openbaar vervoer (bus, tram, trein, om het even) je naar elke plaats die je wenst, zonder je zorgen te hoeven maken over een parkeerplaats.

Meer info over deze kaart vind je op: zwartewoud.info

Overnachten doen we voor de laatste maal op camping Bühlhof in Titisee.

Dag 6
Triberg bezoeken bleek niet mogelijk door een totaal gebrek aan parkeerplaatsen, de massa toeristen en overal achtergelaten fietsen.  De bedoeling was om er een bezoek te brengen, niet alleen aan het “Schwarzwaldmuseum” maar ook aan de grootste winkel met koekoeksklokken. We rijden dan maar door naar Schonach voor een bezoekje aan de tot voor kort, grootste koekoeksklok ter wereld en vervolgens verder naar de Schluchsee.  In Schluchsee vinden we nog net een plaats op de camperplaats. Deze is net aan het gelijknamige stuwmeer gelegen. Het meer is drie maal groter dan de Titisee maar niet zo toeristisch uitgebaa(ui)t. Dit is onze overnachtingsplaats voor de komende 2 nachten.
Dag 7
Na een bezoek aan en een wandeling rond het leuke stadje gaan we ’s middags varen op het meer met de rondvaartboot. Een boot die drie haltes rond het meer aandoet. Vanaf die haltes kan je mooie wandelingen aan en rond het meer maken. Zoals gewoonlijk is er geen Nederlandstalige info (wel Chinees) aan boord, maar als je goed luistert kan je wel iets meepikken van de Duitstalige rondleiding.  Tenzij je natuurlijk geniet van een stuk taart, een ijsje of iets vloeibaars op de boot…

Dag 8
Onze reis gaat verder naar Waldshut, een klein oud stadje aan de Rijn en tegen de grens met Zwitserland. De mooie (luxe) camperplaats ligt naast de camping (waarvan de douches en toiletten ook voor de campers zijn) en heeft alle faciliteiten.  Via een korte wandeling langs de Rijn kom je in het stadje vol fraaie oude vakwerkhuizen, mooie winkels en terrasjes in de verkeersvrije Kaiserstrasse, die aan beide zijden omsloten wordt door een markante stadspoorttoren. In het midden van de straat stroomt door een stenen goot water. Ook zijn er drie moderne fonteinen.
Op het terras van een patisserie genoten we van dé taart van de streek: zwarte woudtaart; heerlijk!

Dag 9
We wippen even de Zwitserse grens over en bezoeken de Rijnwatervallen in Schaffhausen.  Er is een parking (P4) voorzien voor campers maar zoals gewoonlijk staan er ook vele personenauto’s tussen. Vroeg toekomen is de boodschap!  Je mag overnachten op de parking, maar het is er zeer duur. Waarschijnlijk komt dit door de dure Zwitserse frank!

De “Rheinfall” zijn de grootste watervallen van Europa. Je voelt het gebulder van het water door je hele lichaam. Je kan er met een boot naar de kastelen, in het bekken van de Rijnwaterval en zelfs naar het terras op de rots in het midden.
Je wordt er getrakteerd op een gratis, ijskoude douche door het opspattende water.  Het is een indrukwekkend schouwspel.

’s Namiddags keren we terug naar Waldshut en de camperplaats voor de nacht.  In het stadje krijgen we een stevige regenbui. Lang leve de ijssalons als schuilplaats. Ook de porties ijs zijn van Duits formaat, gewoon reusachtig.
SONY DSC
Dag 10
Een panoramaroute liep langs de schilderachtige valleien en heuvels van het Zwarte Woud. Langs plaatsjes zoals Hochenschwand, Todnau, Bernau, Feldberg,  en via Titisee (waar we toch maar een koekoeksklok kopen) rijden we verder naar Altglashütten.  De camperplaats ligt net buiten het dorp naast de spoorweg (gelukkig net buiten gebruik wegens herstellingswerken – normaal twee treinen per dag).  Het dorp is de dag van vandaag bekend als skioord, doch heeft zijn ontstaan te danken aan de bouw van een glasfabriek in 1609. Vele glasblazers vestigden zich er. Het heeft een mooie kerk en één van de weinige resterende glasblazerijen. De man zit gewoon in zijn winkel te werken.  Er zijn prachtige dingen te koop van kleine juweeltjes (ringen, oorbellen, diertjes) tot glazen, vazen enz.  En de prijzen zijn zeer schappelijk. De omgeving nodigt uit tot het maken van lange wandelingen.
Dag 11
De laatste dag van ons bezoek aan het Zwarte Woud  rijden we terug huiswaarts. Niet rechtstreeks. Opnieuw nemen we een tussenstop aan de Moezel. Dit keer trekken we naar Minheim (het zonne-eiland), een klein maar romantische wijndorpje verscholen aan een bocht in het schitterende Moezel landschap. Het dorp telt 452 inwoners en maar liefst 13 wijnhuizen.
De camperplaats (90 plaatsen), ligt vlak aan de rivier. Mooi, rustig, ruime plaatsen met alle voorzieningen (water, elektriciteit en loospunt). ’s Morgens brengt de bakker het daags voordien bestelde brood en koeken.  Tussen de wijngaarden en wijnhuizen tref je er enkele restaurants en één winkel (van diezelfde bakker, tevens een minisupermarkt met een relatief ruim assortiment aan taart, charcuterie, groenten, fruit, kranten, boekjes en zelfs postzegels!). Tijdens ons bezoek heerste er een gezellige sfeer en drukte. Het was feest in het dorp met orkestjes die speelden op de pleinen, en drank- en wijnstandjes alom.
Dag 12
Na het optrekken van de ochtendmist die in slierten over het water hing, scheen het zonnetje opnieuw heerlijk. We besloten om toch terug naar huis te rijden.

We waren blij dat we deze streek na al de jaren, toch nog eens bezocht hebben. Terugkeren naar het Zwarte Woud is altijd leuk en aangenaam om te verblijven.

12th September 2021 - We have left again! On the way to Bavaria in Germany for a special route: the “Romantische Strasse” – the romantic street.

Along the way, you'll discover several ancient castles and monasteries, and explore charming towns and villages that will take you back to a more romantic past. It is one of the most popular tourist routes in Germany. This 385 kilometre route runs from the River Main to the German Alps, from Würzburg to Füssen. In 2010, the route celebrated its 60th anniversary. The name Romantic Road refers to the feelings that many tourists and visitors get when they see the beautiful medieval towns and the special fairy tale castle Neuschwanstein.

On the route we will visit idyllic villages such as Rothenburg ob der Tauber and Dinkelsbuhl. You don't need a map or GPS. You simply follow the brown signs of the Romantic Road, which connect the villages and towns.
Day 1
After about 400 km we stop and look for a place for the night. We are in Remagen on the Rhine. A town with a remarkable war history in connection with the bridge (Brücke von Remagen). This railway bridge over the Rhine at Remagen was the last intact bridge over the Rhine during WWII. On 7 March 1945, she was captured by soldiers of the American 9th Panzer Division. The Germans tried several times to destroy the bridge, but were unsuccessful. Ten days later, after the allied troops crossed it, the bridge suddenly collapsed. The remains of the bridge now house a museum.
We walked along the Rhine promenade past this Peace Museum to the old town. There were hardly any people to be seen there. Everyone was gathered on the terraces along the Rhine promenade. There was a pleasant bustle. After our visit to the city centre we also settled on a terrace.

Day 2
The route of the Romantic Road is started. We don't start in Würzburg. We have already visited this university city extensively for a number of years. If you have not yet driven this route, I still recommend starting in Würzburg. As an old episcopal city, the city has many churches. The Würzburger Residenz is an impressive palace from the 18th century and well worth a visit. The Marienberg Fortress towers over the city and is perhaps the city's best-known landmark. You should definitely visit the 2 museums, including the completely rebuilt pharmacy.
We start in Bad Mergentheim, a beautiful town in the middle of meadows and vineyards. The pedestrian zone has many attractive shops and places to eat and drink. We stroll through the Marktplatz with the town hall and twin houses opposite and the Milchlingsbrunnen fountain. We also sought out the Münster of St. John on Kirchstraße, the St. Bernard building and the chapel with its 18th century portal. And as usual we ended our walk on a terrace.
Day 3
Under a radiant glow we continue our way along the Romantic Road. We drive in river valleys, through forests and along beautiful, green meadows. Have you also noticed that there are foreign languages ​​on the signs that indicate the route? Correct; Japanese and Chinese! The Romantic Road and Rothenburg ob der Tauber in particular are very popular among Japanese and Chinese tourists. Every year they flood the picturesque pictures on the route en masse, with the exception of now. The pandemic has put a stop to everything and there is not a single Asian tourist in sight.
Stop along the way to visit Weikersheim Castle, the most beautiful Renaissance palace along the route. After our tour of the castle, which can only be visited with a guide, we strolled around in the beautiful gardens around the palace. Well worth a visit. They are inspired by those of the Palace of Versailles.
We drive on to Röttingen where we took the last place to spend the night on the “Festplatz”. Röttingen itself is known as the "Stadt der Sonnenuhren" (the city of the sundials). There are 33 sundials on display along the 2 km ring road. Furthermore, there is not much to do in this town. You hardly see tourists there and there are no restaurants with nice terraces either. The baroque-style town hall is the only eye-catcher on the market.
Via the river we walk back to the motorhome. It is very warm, but it is still pleasant to sit by the fast flowing water of the river. By the evening you could not sit by the water. The many mosquitoes had a different opinion. They attacked the people en masse.
Day 4 - 5
The weather has turned a bit less; a bit of rain, cool and now and then the sun that shows itself. These two days we take plenty of time to visit the most popular town on the Romantic Road: Rothenburg ob der Tauber.

We arrive at the motorhome stopover around 10am. There was still room. This is the unfortunate thing about the town's popularity. If you want to spend the night in one of the car parks marked as a camper place, you must arrive before 11 am. After this hour they are guaranteed to be full, and this every day. There are still places available in the afternoon. But towards evening many motorhomes drive around in vain for a place. And of course there are a few campers every day who don't care about the rules and park wherever they find a gap. Places for the disabled, bus stop, ...
Rothenburg itself is beautiful. Although we have been here in the past, it continues to amaze us, pure romance. The highlights are the fortified medieval walls with gates and towers, and the Marktplatz.
The Plönlein with the Siebertoren is, in my opinion, one of the most beautiful medieval town views. If you see a photo of Rothenburg, you will most likely see this image. The town is also said to have served as a source of inspiration for Walt Disney when he made the cartoon Pinocchio.
Don't miss the large German Christmas museum Käthe Wohlfahrt with its Christmas village and shop. Christmas spirit all year round! Dangerous, because before you know it you'll be walking out with all kinds of Christmas balls and other decorations, and your bank account that drastically reduced. We couldn't resist paying a visit. The temptation was too great not to buy anything and we left with a bag full of Christmas items. Hopefully the glass Christmas peak stays intact until home.
On the Marktplatz you can see the Gothic Rathaus (Town Hall). The first stone dates from 1250. On the other side of the square is the “Ratstrinkstube” (Council Drinking Hall). At the top you see a clock from 1638, a calendar date clock and a sundial. It's worth waiting a while: every hour from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., mechanical puppets appear from small windows next to the clock. These play out the famous story of the city's history. Not during our visit! The dolls appear and nothing more happens. Were they faulty? It was nice to see. You saw everyone looking up with excitement and then looking at each other in amazement. You saw them thinking; what is going on?
On the square you can also see the Fountain of Saint George. This fountain is located above Herterich's well, which is 8m deep.
Behind the fountain is the red and white half-timbered building known as the Fleisch und Tanzhaus (Meat and Dance House).
Right next to this building is another beautiful half-timbered building, the house of Mayor Jagstheimer from 1488.
During our tour we came across other sights. Such as the Herrnbrunnen, the Staudthof, the Sint-Fransiskanerkirche, the Hohenstaufen Castle, the St Jakobskirche, the Weisserturm, the Marcustoren, the Alt-Rothenburger Handwerkerhaus, the Sint-Janniskerk and the Mittelalterliche Kriminalmuseum.
In the Herrngasse (opposite the Christmas museum) we visit the historical museum.
To conclude, we settle down in the comfortable terrace seats of a café. Time to taste the local specialty: a “Schneeball” (snowball). It is a round pastry made of shortcrust pastry (fairly hard) that has been baked in Rothenburg for 300 years. The name snowball owes the pastry (or is it actually a cookie?) to the round shape and the layer of icing sugar sprinkled around it. A Schneeball has a diameter of about ten centimetres and a weight of about 95 to 100 grams.
In addition to the traditional Schneeball, many different variants are already being sold. You have them with cinnamon, with icing or chocolate. The variant with marzipan filling is also very tasty.

In one of the shops we bought some to take home as a culinary souvenir.
Day 6
A little further south along the romantic road we end up in Dinkelsbühl. It is also one of those popular places along the route.

We installed the motorhome on the only remaining motorhome pitch on the outskirts of town. Not so obvious if your motorhome is 7m or longer. You can read more about this motorhome park in the overview of overnight stays at the bottom of this travel report.
Like Rothenburg, it is an example of a medieval walled city. While walking between the grand miners and half-timbered buildings, we imagine ourselves back in time.
The remaining fortress wall is 1.5 km long and has 16 towers. Four of them provide access to the old town. We entered the city via the Nördlinger tower.

When approaching the central marketplace, the church immediately catches the eye. “The Stadtpfarrkirche” St. Georg dominates the old town and towers over the rooftops.
We continue walking past other important historic buildings, including St. Paul's Church, which was originally part of a monastery and was rebuilt in the 19th century. There is also the Castle of the Teutonic Order with its Rococo chapel.
Throughout the old town there are many commercial buildings from the 15th and 16th centuries, the most important of which are the Der Hezelhof and the Deutsches Haus. Tucked away behind the fountain in the old town, we discover a special bench. We immediately experience what it feels like to discover the world as a toddler!
After a while we leave the old town via the Wörnitz tower (the oldest of the gates) to walk a bit along the fortress wall. It is striking how much green there is along this side of the wall. Time to relax and enjoy the sun and surroundings.

We go back into the old town, this time through the Faul tower. Opposite, the park ranger's cottage watches over the lake. The “Faulturm” was used as a debtor prison.
We pass the old granary and to the right of the Chapel of the Three Kings we see the Segringer Tor with a unique crown. After a destruction, it was rebuilt in the Baroque style.

At the end of our walk we end up again at the “Marktplatz”, the heart of the city. The ideal time to taste the local beer.
Day 7
Next stop on our route is Nördlingen, like the previous two towns, a medieval walled city. But one difference, this one from Nördlingen is still completely intact. The city has the only fully preserved city wall in Germany. This city is less known than the others and has a rather small centre, but has its own charm.
What makes Nördlingen special is the fact that the city is built in the crater that was created by a meteor impact about 14.5 million years ago. It is really clear when you could view the city from the air.
The impressive tower of the Sint Joris church is built with rocks that have arisen from that impact. The crater ring is also clearly visible from the top of the 90-meter tower. But at the time of our visit it was not open to the public. You can learn more about this crater at the Ries Crater Museum in town. That museum was then closed again for renovation.

We were quickly past the city's main attractions, all of which are located around the Marktplatz.
But don't worry, we then went on to the 2.7 km long city wall. You can walk a large part, which we did. We climbed the stairs to the Reimlinger tower, also the oldest in the city (the oldest parts date from the 14th century). Then walk back to the market via the Löpsinger tower. And since the weather was still nice, a terrace should not be missing, to then continue to rest at the camper on the motorhome just outside the city.
Day 8
When we left in the morning there was not much to see along the route. The rapidly rising fog obscured all view. As quickly as he had risen, he disappeared again, revealing the castle of Harburg. The castle is over 700 years old and has survived numerous investments, battles and wars. As a result, it has many buildings from different periods, namely from the Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque.
After a visit we continued on our way and arrived in Donauwörth. We settle in the motorhome on the Danube. Of course, the river is not yet as impressive as in Budapest. She still has a long way to go.

The town is not spectacular, but nice to see. However, on the edge of the centre, on top of a hill, there is an impressive monastery with a beautiful baroque monastery church, the Church of the Holy Cross. Dating back to the 11th century, it is said to have been built to hold a splinter from the cross of Christ, which was brought back here during the Crusades.

We end the afternoon with an ice cream.
Day 9
The end of the Romantic Road is approaching! We have arrived in Augsburg, the third largest and oldest city in Bavaria. Fortunately we are early enough (10 am) to get a place on the motorhome stopover. The person in charge (who lives there himself in a motorhome) came to meet us to show us our place. There was not much choice anymore.

Augsburg has many beautiful Renaissance buildings and together with the many fountains the city looks a bit like an Italian city. We walk past the many buildings and the wide pedestrian shopping streets invite you to shop.
The main sights can be seen around Rathausplatz, the main square where you can see the Augustus Fountain, City Hall and Perlachturm clock tower. You also have Sint-Ulrich there. The Tower of St. Ulrich can be seen from almost all directions far outside the city, making it by far the most important landmark of Augsburg.
A bit hidden between the high houses behind a wall is the medieval St. Anne's Church. It was built as part of a monastery complex. The exterior is certainly beautiful, but it is the interior that really impresses. The ceiling is decorated with an elaborate stucco with Baroque and Rococo detailing. The Fugger Chapel is the earliest example of Renaissance architecture in Germany.
Day 10
We continue along the Romantic Road. One panoramic view follows another and sparkles in the morning sun. Next stop is Landsberg am Lech.

The motorhome parking is located on the edge of the city on a large closed car park. There are eight official, spacious pitches with electricity, but another part of the car park was completely occupied by motorhomes. Although we could stand in an official place, there were still about 25 campers. Towards evening this number increased.
A surviving gateway provides access to another idyllic old town, this time with a curious central square. It has an unusual triangle shape. At its centre are the Marienbrunnen, a fountain from about 1700.

A real climb along the Alte Bergstrasse leads me to the very high bank of the river Lech. Panting I reach the top. On top of the mountain are the former Jesuit building and the Heilig-Kreuz-Kirche. The interior of this church is built in Rococo style and is too bombastic for my taste, which certainly does not make it more beautiful. You can't walk around inside, the interior closed by a heavy iron gates. You can see the entire church, and taking pictures is no problem either.
To recover from the climb, we walk along the bank of the river and past the former salt warehouses, which have now been converted into nice, cosy houses and shops. We relax on the high chairs of a terrace. We do this with an invigorating piece of cheesecake (the seats are high enough to enjoy the view of the river over the retaining wall).
Day 11
Today we visit some famous churches along the Romantic Road. First stop is the Wieskirche in Steingaden. This pilgrimage church, also a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is an oval, Rococo church that was built because the originally small chapel attracted too many pilgrims. Tears are said to have been seen on an ancient wooden figure of the scourged Redeemer. This so-called miracle is housed in the church.

A church service was underway on arrival. The church was packed at the back with impatient tourists who wanted to see the church. They had been dropped there with coaches. After mass you could just walk around the church. Those same tourists looked open-mouthed at the rococo elements as if they had never seen anything like it before.
And as I said before: beautiful but bombastic, not really my style. I like the baroque style more.
Next stop: the impressive monastery church, “ehemalige Klosterkirche Mariä Geburt” in Rottenbuch. The original abbey church, built in the Romanesque style, was redecorated in the high Baroque style in the 18th century. Graceful, once again bombastic. I really can't find another word for it. The photos say so much more. The campsite in Rottenbuch is also our base for our last days along the Romantic Road.
Day 12
No churches today, but a castle. We are in Hohenschwangau. The place where Neuschwanstein Castle, high on the hill, overlooks the valley. A beautiful castle that was commissioned by the "crazy" Ludwig II of Bavaria. We already visited this castle in 2005. Today it was no longer possible to take a look. By 10am the tickets were already sold out.
Hohenschwangau Castle is also located in the town. Slightly less known, but certainly also impressive in terms of beauty. The four striking corner towers and the crenelated walls give the castle a medieval appearance.
In this castle Ludwig II spent his childhood. We bought tickets to visit this castle. We spared the climb to the entrance and took a ride in a horse cart.
The guide guided us along the impressive residences of Maximilian of Bavaria and those of his wife and the guests. The interior of the castle is in Biedermeier style and there are beautiful murals throughout the castle (there are more than 90 and were painted by Moritz von Schwind and Ludwig Lindenschmit, among others).

The visit was really worth it, the castle inside is certainly as beautiful as Neuschwanstein. Unfortunately, it was not allowed to take pictures inside. The photos of the interior are from the castle's website.
Day 13
We have reached the end of the Romantic Road. We are in historic Füssen. We stroll around the cosy old town and past the main sights such as the Benedictine monastery of Saint Magnus with its basilica. When you enter the city pharmacy it seems as if time has stood still.

A gate of the Franciscan Monastery marks the southern end of the Romantic Road.
The eye-catcher of Füssen is the "Hoch Schloss". This beautiful castle towers over the city. Unique illusionary paintings can be discovered in the courtyard. It's a bizarre sight, the painted windows with its protruding bay windows just seem real.

The battlements and towers of the castle are also of interest. From the ramp, the gate tower leads to the sixth floor. From here I have a unique view of the city and its surroundings.
The observation tower is also open to the public. Once upon a time there was a dungeon. The bell tower of the High Castle can also be climbed.
The Veitskapelle is located behind one of the gates in the courtyard. It is probably the highest castle chapel in Germany where you can get married.

On a nice terrace we look back with satisfaction on our fortnight along the Romantic Road!
Day 14
We drive back to Belgium. What a traffic, it seems that all Germans are on their way. After about 450 km and a day full of traffic jams, we try to find a place at a motorhome park along the Rhine in Bingen. Without success, it is Saturday afternoon and everything is fully booked. After three camper stopovers we look a little further away from the Rhine and end up in Gensingen. Here we are alone in a fairly new motorhome place in the middle of the city. There is nothing special in this town, but it is only our intention to spend the night here.

Day 15
Sunday, 26 September – when we wake up, a lot of people are already on their feet around the motorhome. It's election day in Germany, and it turns out we're standing right next to a polling station. After a leisurely breakfast we clean up and drive home.

Very narrow places. Was regular parking with 8 camper places on one side. These are the only normal places. They installed power poles at the rest of the parking lot.
On one side they are only 6m long. Only suitable for vans. In the middle, the pitches are barely 6.5 meters long. You need to stand completely over the median strip to be at the front of your section. When we returned from our visit to the town, we found that a motorhome was parked behind us, also across the median strip, but with the rear next to my rear. There was only 3 cm of space between them. So it was impossible for me to open my garage. He thought this was the most natural thing when I spoke to him about it. You can always argue, but he was willing to move every time I had to be in the garage.
There is also still a road sign indicating parking spaces for passenger cars. Of course, there were regular cars parked between the campers. One person even installed his caravan there.

Day 1
After about 400 km we stop and look for a place for the night. We are in Remagen on the Rhine. A town with a remarkable war history in connection with the bridge (Brücke von Remagen). This railway bridge over the Rhine at Remagen was the last intact bridge over the Rhine during WWII. On 7 March 1945, she was captured by soldiers of the American 9th Panzer Division. The Germans tried several times to destroy the bridge, but were unsuccessful. Ten days later, after the allied troops crossed it, the bridge suddenly collapsed. The remains of the bridge now house a museum.
We walked along the Rhine promenade past this Peace Museum to the old town. There were hardly any people to be seen there. Everyone was gathered on the terraces along the Rhine promenade. There was a pleasant bustle. After our visit to the city centre we also settled on a terrace.
Day 2
The route of the Romantic Road is started. We don't start in Würzburg. We have already visited this university city extensively for a number of years. If you have not yet driven this route, I still recommend starting in Würzburg. As an old episcopal city, the city has many churches. The Würzburger Residenz is an impressive palace from the 18th century and well worth a visit. The Marienberg Fortress towers over the city and is perhaps the city's best-known landmark. You should definitely visit the 2 museums, including the completely rebuilt pharmacy.
We start in Bad Mergentheim, a beautiful town in the middle of meadows and vineyards. The pedestrian zone has many attractive shops and places to eat and drink. We stroll through the Marktplatz with the town hall and twin houses opposite and the Milchlingsbrunnen fountain. We also sought out the Münster of St. John on Kirchstraße, the St. Bernard building and the chapel with its 18th century portal. And as usual we ended our walk on a terrace.
Day 3
Under a radiant glow we continue our way along the Romantic Road. We drive in river valleys, through forests and along beautiful, green meadows. Have you also noticed that there are foreign languages ​​on the signs that indicate the route? Correct; Japanese and Chinese! The Romantic Road and Rothenburg ob der Tauber in particular are very popular among Japanese and Chinese tourists. Every year they flood the picturesque pictures on the route en masse, with the exception of now. The pandemic has put a stop to everything and there is not a single Asian tourist in sight.
Stop along the way to visit Weikersheim Castle, the most beautiful Renaissance palace along the route. After our tour of the castle, which can only be visited with a guide, we strolled around in the beautiful gardens around the palace. Well worth a visit. They are inspired by those of the Palace of Versailles.
We drive on to Röttingen where we took the last place to spend the night on the “Festplatz”. Röttingen itself is known as the "Stadt der Sonnenuhren" (the city of the sundials). There are 33 sundials on display along the 2 km ring road. Furthermore, there is not much to do in this town. You hardly see tourists there and there are no restaurants with nice terraces either. The baroque-style town hall is the only eye-catcher on the market.
Via the river we walk back to the motorhome. It is very warm, but it is still pleasant to sit by the fast flowing water of the river. By the evening you could not sit by the water. The many mosquitoes had a different opinion. They attacked the people en masse.
Day 4 - 5
The weather has turned a bit less; a bit of rain, cool and now and then the sun that shows itself. These two days we take plenty of time to visit the most popular town on the Romantic Road: Rothenburg ob der Tauber.

We arrive at the motorhome stopover around 10am. There was still room. This is the unfortunate thing about the town's popularity. If you want to spend the night in one of the car parks marked as a camper place, you must arrive before 11 am. After this hour they are guaranteed to be full, and this every day. There are still places available in the afternoon. But towards evening many motorhomes drive around in vain for a place. And of course there are a few campers every day who don't care about the rules and park wherever they find a gap. Places for the disabled, bus stop, ...
Rothenburg itself is beautiful. Although we have been here in the past, it continues to amaze us, pure romance. The highlights are the fortified medieval walls with gates and towers, and the Marktplatz.
The Plönlein with the Siebertoren is, in my opinion, one of the most beautiful medieval town views. If you see a photo of Rothenburg, you will most likely see this image. The town is also said to have served as a source of inspiration for Walt Disney when he made the cartoon Pinocchio.
Don't miss the large German Christmas museum Käthe Wohlfahrt with its Christmas village and shop. Christmas spirit all year round! Dangerous, because before you know it you'll be walking out with all kinds of Christmas balls and other decorations, and your bank account that drastically reduced. We couldn't resist paying a visit. The temptation was too great not to buy anything and we left with a bag full of Christmas items. Hopefully the glass Christmas peak stays intact until home.
On the Marktplatz you can see the Gothic Rathaus (Town Hall). The first stone dates from 1250. On the other side of the square is the “Ratstrinkstube” (Council Drinking Hall). At the top you see a clock from 1638, a calendar date clock and a sundial. It's worth waiting a while: every hour from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., mechanical puppets appear from small windows next to the clock. These play out the famous story of the city's history. Not during our visit! The dolls appear and nothing more happens. Were they faulty? It was nice to see. You saw everyone looking up with excitement and then looking at each other in amazement. You saw them thinking; what is going on?
On the square you can also see the Fountain of Saint George. This fountain is located above Herterich's well, which is 8m deep.
Behind the fountain is the red and white half-timbered building known as the Fleisch und Tanzhaus (Meat and Dance House).
Right next to this building is another beautiful half-timbered building, the house of Mayor Jagstheimer from 1488.
During our tour we came across other sights. Such as the Herrnbrunnen, the Staudthof, the Sint-Fransiskanerkirche, the Hohenstaufen Castle, the St Jakobskirche, the Weisserturm, the Marcustoren, the Alt-Rothenburger Handwerkerhaus, the Sint-Janniskerk and the Mittelalterliche Kriminalmuseum.
In the Herrngasse (opposite the Christmas museum) we visit the historical museum.
To conclude, we settle down in the comfortable terrace seats of a café. Time to taste the local specialty: a “Schneeball” (snowball). It is a round pastry made of shortcrust pastry (fairly hard) that has been baked in Rothenburg for 300 years. The name snowball owes the pastry (or is it actually a cookie?) to the round shape and the layer of icing sugar sprinkled around it. A Schneeball has a diameter of about ten centimetres and a weight of about 95 to 100 grams.
In addition to the traditional Schneeball, many different variants are already being sold. You have them with cinnamon, with icing or chocolate. The variant with marzipan filling is also very tasty.

In one of the shops we bought some to take home as a culinary souvenir.
Day 6
A little further south along the romantic road we end up in Dinkelsbühl. It is also one of those popular places along the route.

We installed the motorhome on the only remaining motorhome pitch on the outskirts of town. Not so obvious if your motorhome is 7m or longer. You can read more about this motorhome park in the overview of overnight stays at the bottom of this travel report.
Like Rothenburg, it is an example of a medieval walled city. While walking between the grand miners and half-timbered buildings, we imagine ourselves back in time.
The remaining fortress wall is 1.5 km long and has 16 towers. Four of them provide access to the old town. We entered the city via the Nördlinger tower.

When approaching the central marketplace, the church immediately catches the eye. “The Stadtpfarrkirche” St. Georg dominates the old town and towers over the rooftops.
We continue walking past other important historic buildings, including St. Paul's Church, which was originally part of a monastery and was rebuilt in the 19th century. There is also the Castle of the Teutonic Order with its Rococo chapel.
Throughout the old town there are many commercial buildings from the 15th and 16th centuries, the most important of which are the Der Hezelhof and the Deutsches Haus. Tucked away behind the fountain in the old town, we discover a special bench. We immediately experience what it feels like to discover the world as a toddler!
After a while we leave the old town via the Wörnitz tower (the oldest of the gates) to walk a bit along the fortress wall. It is striking how much green there is along this side of the wall. Time to relax and enjoy the sun and surroundings.

We go back into the old town, this time through the Faul tower. Opposite, the park ranger's cottage watches over the lake. The “Faulturm” was used as a debtor prison.
We pass the old granary and to the right of the Chapel of the Three Kings we see the Segringer Tor with a unique crown. After a destruction, it was rebuilt in the Baroque style.

At the end of our walk we end up again at the “Marktplatz”, the heart of the city. The ideal time to taste the local beer.
Day 7
Next stop on our route is Nördlingen, like the previous two towns, a medieval walled city. But one difference, this one from Nördlingen is still completely intact. The city has the only fully preserved city wall in Germany. This city is less known than the others and has a rather small centre, but has its own charm.
What makes Nördlingen special is the fact that the city is built in the crater that was created by a meteor impact about 14.5 million years ago. It is really clear when you could view the city from the air.
The impressive tower of the Sint Joris church is built with rocks that have arisen from that impact. The crater ring is also clearly visible from the top of the 90-meter tower. But at the time of our visit it was not open to the public. You can learn more about this crater at the Ries Crater Museum in town. That museum was then closed again for renovation.

We were quickly past the city's main attractions, all of which are located around the Marktplatz.
But don't worry, we then went on to the 2.7 km long city wall. You can walk a large part, which we did. We climbed the stairs to the Reimlinger tower, also the oldest in the city (the oldest parts date from the 14th century). Then walk back to the market via the Löpsinger tower. And since the weather was still nice, a terrace should not be missing, to then continue to rest at the camper on the motorhome just outside the city.
Day 8
When we left in the morning there was not much to see along the route. The rapidly rising fog obscured all view. As quickly as he had risen, he disappeared again, revealing the castle of Harburg. The castle is over 700 years old and has survived numerous investments, battles and wars. As a result, it has many buildings from different periods, namely from the Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque.
After a visit we continued on our way and arrived in Donauwörth. We settle in the motorhome on the Danube. Of course, the river is not yet as impressive as in Budapest. She still has a long way to go.

The town is not spectacular, but nice to see. However, on the edge of the centre, on top of a hill, there is an impressive monastery with a beautiful baroque monastery church, the Church of the Holy Cross. Dating back to the 11th century, it is said to have been built to hold a splinter from the cross of Christ, which was brought back here during the Crusades.

We end the afternoon with an ice cream.
Day 9
The end of the Romantic Road is approaching! We have arrived in Augsburg, the third largest and oldest city in Bavaria. Fortunately we are early enough (10 am) to get a place on the motorhome stopover. The person in charge (who lives there himself in a motorhome) came to meet us to show us our place. There was not much choice anymore.

Augsburg has many beautiful Renaissance buildings and together with the many fountains the city looks a bit like an Italian city. We walk past the many buildings and the wide pedestrian shopping streets invite you to shop.
The main sights can be seen around Rathausplatz, the main square where you can see the Augustus Fountain, City Hall and Perlachturm clock tower. You also have Sint-Ulrich there. The Tower of St. Ulrich can be seen from almost all directions far outside the city, making it by far the most important landmark of Augsburg.
A bit hidden between the high houses behind a wall is the medieval St. Anne's Church. It was built as part of a monastery complex. The exterior is certainly beautiful, but it is the interior that really impresses. The ceiling is decorated with an elaborate stucco with Baroque and Rococo detailing. The Fugger Chapel is the earliest example of Renaissance architecture in Germany.
Day 10
We continue along the Romantic Road. One panoramic view follows another and sparkles in the morning sun. Next stop is Landsberg am Lech.

The motorhome parking is located on the edge of the city on a large closed car park. There are eight official, spacious pitches with electricity, but another part of the car park was completely occupied by motorhomes. Although we could stand in an official place, there were still about 25 campers. Towards evening this number increased.
A surviving gateway provides access to another idyllic old town, this time with a curious central square. It has an unusual triangle shape. At its centre are the Marienbrunnen, a fountain from about 1700.

A real climb along the Alte Bergstrasse leads me to the very high bank of the river Lech. Panting I reach the top. On top of the mountain are the former Jesuit building and the Heilig-Kreuz-Kirche. The interior of this church is built in Rococo style and is too bombastic for my taste, which certainly does not make it more beautiful. You can't walk around inside, the interior closed by a heavy iron gates. You can see the entire church, and taking pictures is no problem either.
To recover from the climb, we walk along the bank of the river and past the former salt warehouses, which have now been converted into nice, cosy houses and shops. We relax on the high chairs of a terrace. We do this with an invigorating piece of cheesecake (the seats are high enough to enjoy the view of the river over the retaining wall).
Day 11
Today we visit some famous churches along the Romantic Road. First stop is the Wieskirche in Steingaden. This pilgrimage church, also a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is an oval, Rococo church that was built because the originally small chapel attracted too many pilgrims. Tears are said to have been seen on an ancient wooden figure of the scourged Redeemer. This so-called miracle is housed in the church.

A church service was underway on arrival. The church was packed at the back with impatient tourists who wanted to see the church. They had been dropped there with coaches. After mass you could just walk around the church. Those same tourists looked open-mouthed at the rococo elements as if they had never seen anything like it before.
And as I said before: beautiful but bombastic, not really my style. I like the baroque style more.
Next stop: the impressive monastery church, “ehemalige Klosterkirche Mariä Geburt” in Rottenbuch. The original abbey church, built in the Romanesque style, was redecorated in the high Baroque style in the 18th century. Graceful, once again bombastic. I really can't find another word for it. The photos say so much more. The campsite in Rottenbuch is also our base for our last days along the Romantic Road.
Day 12
No churches today, but a castle. We are in Hohenschwangau. The place where Neuschwanstein Castle, high on the hill, overlooks the valley. A beautiful castle that was commissioned by the "crazy" Ludwig II of Bavaria. We already visited this castle in 2005. Today it was no longer possible to take a look. By 10am the tickets were already sold out.
Hohenschwangau Castle is also located in the town. Slightly less known, but certainly also impressive in terms of beauty. The four striking corner towers and the crenelated walls give the castle a medieval appearance.
In this castle Ludwig II spent his childhood. We bought tickets to visit this castle. We spared the climb to the entrance and took a ride in a horse cart.
The guide guided us along the impressive residences of Maximilian of Bavaria and those of his wife and the guests. The interior of the castle is in Biedermeier style and there are beautiful murals throughout the castle (there are more than 90 and were painted by Moritz von Schwind and Ludwig Lindenschmit, among others).

The visit was really worth it, the castle inside is certainly as beautiful as Neuschwanstein. Unfortunately, it was not allowed to take pictures inside. The photos of the interior are from the castle's website.
Day 13
We have reached the end of the Romantic Road. We are in historic Füssen. We stroll around the cosy old town and past the main sights such as the Benedictine monastery of Saint Magnus with its basilica. When you enter the city pharmacy it seems as if time has stood still.

A gate of the Franciscan Monastery marks the southern end of the Romantic Road.

The battlements and towers of the castle are also of interest. From the ramp, the gate tower leads to the sixth floor. From here I have a unique view of the city and its surroundings.
The observation tower is also open to the public. Once upon a time there was a dungeon. The bell tower of the High Castle can also be climbed.
The Veitskapelle is located behind one of the gates in the courtyard. It is probably the highest castle chapel in Germany where you can get married.

On a nice terrace we look back with satisfaction on our fortnight along the Romantic Road!
Day 14
We drive back to Belgium. What a traffic, it seems that all Germans are on their way. After about 450 km and a day full of traffic jams, we try to find a place at a motorhome park along the Rhine in Bingen. Without success, it is Saturday afternoon and everything is fully booked. After three camper stopovers we look a little further away from the Rhine and end up in Gensingen. Here we are alone in a fairly new motorhome place in the middle of the city. There is nothing special in this town, but it is only our intention to spend the night here.

Day 15
Sunday, 26 September – when we wake up, a lot of people are already on their feet around the motorhome. It's election day in Germany, and it turns out we're standing right next to a polling station. After a leisurely breakfast we clean up and drive home.

Have you also noticed that there are foreign languages ​​on the signs that indicate the route? Correct; Japanese and Chinese! The Romantic Road and Rothenburg ob der Tauber in particular are very popular among Japanese and Chinese tourists. Every year they flood the picturesque pictures on the route en masse, with the exception of now. The pandemic has put a stop to everything and there is not a single Asian tourist in sight.
Stop along the way to visit Weikersheim Castle, the most beautiful Renaissance palace along the route. After our tour of the castle, which can only be visited with a guide, we strolled around in the beautiful gardens around the palace. Well worth a visit. They are inspired by those of the Palace of Versailles.
We drive on to Röttingen where we took the last place to spend the night on the “Festplatz”. Röttingen itself is known as the "Stadt der Sonnenuhren" (the city of the sundials). There are 33 sundials on display along the 2 km ring road. Furthermore, there is not much to do in this town. You hardly see tourists there and there are no restaurants with nice terraces either. The baroque-style town hall is the only eye-catcher on the market.
Via the river we walk back to the motorhome. It is very warm, but it is still pleasant to sit by the fast flowing water of the river. By the evening you could not sit by the water. The many mosquitoes had a different opinion. They attacked the people en masse.
Day 4 - 5
The weather has turned a bit less; a bit of rain, cool and now and then the sun that shows itself. These two days we take plenty of time to visit the most popular town on the Romantic Road: Rothenburg ob der Tauber.

We arrive at the motorhome stopover around 10am. There was still room. This is the unfortunate thing about the town's popularity. If you want to spend the night in one of the car parks marked as a camper place, you must arrive before 11 am. After this hour they are guaranteed to be full, and this every day. There are still places available in the afternoon. But towards evening many motorhomes drive around in vain for a place. And of course there are a few campers every day who don't care about the rules and park wherever they find a gap. Places for the disabled, bus stop, ...
Rothenburg itself is beautiful. Although we have been here in the past, it continues to amaze us, pure romance. The highlights are the fortified medieval walls with gates and towers, and the Marktplatz.
The Plönlein with the Siebertoren is, in my opinion, one of the most beautiful medieval town views. If you see a photo of Rothenburg, you will most likely see this image. The town is also said to have served as a source of inspiration for Walt Disney when he made the cartoon Pinocchio.
Don't miss the large German Christmas museum Käthe Wohlfahrt with its Christmas village and shop. Christmas spirit all year round! Dangerous, because before you know it you'll be walking out with all kinds of Christmas balls and other decorations, and your bank account that drastically reduced. We couldn't resist paying a visit. The temptation was too great not to buy anything and we left with a bag full of Christmas items. Hopefully the glass Christmas peak stays intact until home.
On the Marktplatz you can see the Gothic Rathaus (Town Hall). The first stone dates from 1250. On the other side of the square is the “Ratstrinkstube” (Council Drinking Hall). At the top you see a clock from 1638, a calendar date clock and a sundial. It's worth waiting a while: every hour from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., mechanical puppets appear from small windows next to the clock. These play out the famous story of the city's history. Not during our visit! The dolls appear and nothing more happens. Were they faulty? It was nice to see. You saw everyone looking up with excitement and then looking at each other in amazement. You saw them thinking; what is going on?
On the square you can also see the Fountain of Saint George. This fountain is located above Herterich's well, which is 8m deep.
Behind the fountain is the red and white half-timbered building known as the Fleisch und Tanzhaus (Meat and Dance House).
Right next to this building is another beautiful half-timbered building, the house of Mayor Jagstheimer from 1488.
During our tour we came across other sights. Such as the Herrnbrunnen, the Staudthof, the Sint-Fransiskanerkirche, the Hohenstaufen Castle, the St Jakobskirche, the Weisserturm, the Marcustoren, the Alt-Rothenburger Handwerkerhaus, the Sint-Janniskerk and the Mittelalterliche Kriminalmuseum.
In the Herrngasse (opposite the Christmas museum) we visit the historical museum.
To conclude, we settle down in the comfortable terrace seats of a café. Time to taste the local specialty: a “Schneeball” (snowball). It is a round pastry made of shortcrust pastry (fairly hard) that has been baked in Rothenburg for 300 years. The name snowball owes the pastry (or is it actually a cookie?) to the round shape and the layer of icing sugar sprinkled around it. A Schneeball has a diameter of about ten centimetres and a weight of about 95 to 100 grams.
In addition to the traditional Schneeball, many different variants are already being sold. You have them with cinnamon, with icing or chocolate. The variant with marzipan filling is also very tasty.

In one of the shops we bought some to take home as a culinary souvenir.
Day 6
A little further south along the romantic road we end up in Dinkelsbühl. It is also one of those popular places along the route.

We installed the motorhome on the only remaining motorhome pitch on the outskirts of town. Not so obvious if your motorhome is 7m or longer. You can read more about this motorhome park in the overview of overnight stays at the bottom of this travel report.
Like Rothenburg, it is an example of a medieval walled city. While walking between the grand miners and half-timbered buildings, we imagine ourselves back in time.
The remaining fortress wall is 1.5 km long and has 16 towers. Four of them provide access to the old town. We entered the city via the Nördlinger tower.

When approaching the central marketplace, the church immediately catches the eye. “The Stadtpfarrkirche” St. Georg dominates the old town and towers over the rooftops.
We continue walking past other important historic buildings, including St. Paul's Church, which was originally part of a monastery and was rebuilt in the 19th century. There is also the Castle of the Teutonic Order with its Rococo chapel.
Throughout the old town there are many commercial buildings from the 15th and 16th centuries, the most important of which are the Der Hezelhof and the Deutsches Haus. Tucked away behind the fountain in the old town, we discover a special bench. We immediately experience what it feels like to discover the world as a toddler!
After a while we leave the old town via the Wörnitz tower (the oldest of the gates) to walk a bit along the fortress wall. It is striking how much green there is along this side of the wall. Time to relax and enjoy the sun and surroundings.

We go back into the old town, this time through the Faul tower. Opposite, the park ranger's cottage watches over the lake. The “Faulturm” was used as a debtor prison.
We pass the old granary and to the right of the Chapel of the Three Kings we see the Segringer Tor with a unique crown. After a destruction, it was rebuilt in the Baroque style.

At the end of our walk we end up again at the “Marktplatz”, the heart of the city. The ideal time to taste the local beer.
Day 7
Next stop on our route is Nördlingen, like the previous two towns, a medieval walled city. But one difference, this one from Nördlingen is still completely intact. The city has the only fully preserved city wall in Germany. This city is less known than the others and has a rather small centre, but has its own charm.
What makes Nördlingen special is the fact that the city is built in the crater that was created by a meteor impact about 14.5 million years ago. It is really clear when you could view the city from the air.
The impressive tower of the Sint Joris church is built with rocks that have arisen from that impact. The crater ring is also clearly visible from the top of the 90-meter tower. But at the time of our visit it was not open to the public. You can learn more about this crater at the Ries Crater Museum in town. That museum was then closed again for renovation.

We were quickly past the city's main attractions, all of which are located around the Marktplatz.
But don't worry, we then went on to the 2.7 km long city wall. You can walk a large part, which we did. We climbed the stairs to the Reimlinger tower, also the oldest in the city (the oldest parts date from the 14th century). Then walk back to the market via the Löpsinger tower. And since the weather was still nice, a terrace should not be missing, to then continue to rest at the camper on the motorhome just outside the city.
Day 8
When we left in the morning there was not much to see along the route. The rapidly rising fog obscured all view. As quickly as he had risen, he disappeared again, revealing the castle of Harburg. The castle is over 700 years old and has survived numerous investments, battles and wars. As a result, it has many buildings from different periods, namely from the Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque.
After a visit we continued on our way and arrived in Donauwörth. We settle in the motorhome on the Danube. Of course, the river is not yet as impressive as in Budapest. She still has a long way to go.

The town is not spectacular, but nice to see. However, on the edge of the centre, on top of a hill, there is an impressive monastery with a beautiful baroque monastery church, the Church of the Holy Cross. Dating back to the 11th century, it is said to have been built to hold a splinter from the cross of Christ, which was brought back here during the Crusades.

We end the afternoon with an ice cream.
Day 9
The end of the Romantic Road is approaching! We have arrived in Augsburg, the third largest and oldest city in Bavaria. Fortunately we are early enough (10 am) to get a place on the motorhome stopover. The person in charge (who lives there himself in a motorhome) came to meet us to show us our place. There was not much choice anymore.

Augsburg has many beautiful Renaissance buildings and together with the many fountains the city looks a bit like an Italian city. We walk past the many buildings and the wide pedestrian shopping streets invite you to shop.
The main sights can be seen around Rathausplatz, the main square where you can see the Augustus Fountain, City Hall and Perlachturm clock tower. You also have Sint-Ulrich there. The Tower of St. Ulrich can be seen from almost all directions far outside the city, making it by far the most important landmark of Augsburg.
A bit hidden between the high houses behind a wall is the medieval St. Anne's Church. It was built as part of a monastery complex. The exterior is certainly beautiful, but it is the interior that really impresses. The ceiling is decorated with an elaborate stucco with Baroque and Rococo detailing. The Fugger Chapel is the earliest example of Renaissance architecture in Germany.
Day 10
We continue along the Romantic Road. One panoramic view follows another and sparkles in the morning sun. Next stop is Landsberg am Lech.

The motorhome parking is located on the edge of the city on a large closed car park. There are eight official, spacious pitches with electricity, but another part of the car park was completely occupied by motorhomes. Although we could stand in an official place, there were still about 25 campers. Towards evening this number increased.
A surviving gateway provides access to another idyllic old town, this time with a curious central square. It has an unusual triangle shape. At its centre are the Marienbrunnen, a fountain from about 1700.

A real climb along the Alte Bergstrasse leads me to the very high bank of the river Lech. Panting I reach the top. On top of the mountain are the former Jesuit building and the Heilig-Kreuz-Kirche. The interior of this church is built in Rococo style and is too bombastic for my taste, which certainly does not make it more beautiful. You can't walk around inside, the interior closed by a heavy iron gates. You can see the entire church, and taking pictures is no problem either.
To recover from the climb, we walk along the bank of the river and past the former salt warehouses, which have now been converted into nice, cosy houses and shops. We relax on the high chairs of a terrace. We do this with an invigorating piece of cheesecake (the seats are high enough to enjoy the view of the river over the retaining wall).
Day 11
Today we visit some famous churches along the Romantic Road. First stop is the Wieskirche in Steingaden. This pilgrimage church, also a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is an oval, Rococo church that was built because the originally small chapel attracted too many pilgrims. Tears are said to have been seen on an ancient wooden figure of the scourged Redeemer. This so-called miracle is housed in the church.

A church service was underway on arrival. The church was packed at the back with impatient tourists who wanted to see the church. They had been dropped there with coaches. After mass you could just walk around the church. Those same tourists looked open-mouthed at the rococo elements as if they had never seen anything like it before.
And as I said before: beautiful but bombastic, not really my style. I like the baroque style more.
Next stop: the impressive monastery church, “ehemalige Klosterkirche Mariä Geburt” in Rottenbuch. The original abbey church, built in the Romanesque style, was redecorated in the high Baroque style in the 18th century. Graceful, once again bombastic. I really can't find another word for it. The photos say so much more. The campsite in Rottenbuch is also our base for our last days along the Romantic Road.
Day 12
No churches today, but a castle. We are in Hohenschwangau. The place where Neuschwanstein Castle, high on the hill, overlooks the valley. A beautiful castle that was commissioned by the "crazy" Ludwig II of Bavaria. We already visited this castle in 2005. Today it was no longer possible to take a look. By 10am the tickets were already sold out.
Hohenschwangau Castle is also located in the town. Slightly less known, but certainly also impressive in terms of beauty. The four striking corner towers and the crenelated walls give the castle a medieval appearance.
In this castle Ludwig II spent his childhood. We bought tickets to visit this castle. We spared the climb to the entrance and took a ride in a horse cart.
The guide guided us along the impressive residences of Maximilian of Bavaria and those of his wife and the guests. The interior of the castle is in Biedermeier style and there are beautiful murals throughout the castle (there are more than 90 and were painted by Moritz von Schwind and Ludwig Lindenschmit, among others).

The visit was really worth it, the castle inside is certainly as beautiful as Neuschwanstein. Unfortunately, it was not allowed to take pictures inside. The photos of the interior are from the castle's website.
Day 13
We have reached the end of the Romantic Road. We are in historic Füssen. We stroll around the cosy old town and past the main sights such as the Benedictine monastery of Saint Magnus with its basilica. When you enter the city pharmacy it seems as if time has stood still.

A gate of the Franciscan Monastery marks the southern end of the Romantic Road.
The eye-catcher of Füssen is the "Hoch Schloss". This beautiful castle towers over the city. Unique illusionary paintings can be discovered in the courtyard. It's a bizarre sight, the painted windows with its protruding bay windows just seem real.

The battlements and towers of the castle are also of interest. From the ramp, the gate tower leads to the sixth floor. From here I have a unique view of the city and its surroundings.
The observation tower is also open to the public. Once upon a time there was a dungeon. The bell tower of the High Castle can also be climbed.
The Veitskapelle is located behind one of the gates in the courtyard. It is probably the highest castle chapel in Germany where you can get married.

On a nice terrace we look back with satisfaction on our fortnight along the Romantic Road!
Day 14
We drive back to Belgium. What a traffic, it seems that all Germans are on their way. After about 450 km and a day full of traffic jams, we try to find a place at a motorhome park along the Rhine in Bingen. Without success, it is Saturday afternoon and everything is fully booked. After three camper stopovers we look a little further away from the Rhine and end up in Gensingen. Here we are alone in a fairly new motorhome place in the middle of the city. There is nothing special in this town, but it is only our intention to spend the night here.

Day 15
Sunday, 26 September – when we wake up, a lot of people are already on their feet around the motorhome. It's election day in Germany, and it turns out we're standing right next to a polling station. After a leisurely breakfast we clean up and drive home.

Very narrow places. Was regular parking with 8 camper places on one side. These are the only normal places. They installed power poles at the rest of the parking lot.
On one side they are only 6m long. Only suitable for vans. In the middle, the pitches are barely 6.5 meters long. You need to stand completely over the median strip to be at the front of your section. When we returned from our visit to the town, we found that a motorhome was parked behind us, also across the median strip, but with the rear next to my rear. There was only 3 cm of space between them. So it was impossible for me to open my garage. He thought this was the most natural thing when I spoke to him about it. You can always argue, but he was willing to move every time I had to be in the garage.
There is also still a road sign indicating parking spaces for passenger cars. Of course, there were regular cars parked between the campers. One person even installed his caravan there.
