Memories and hints of a travelling IT professional.
It is a brewery, but a special one. At Schinkels Brauhaus at Witzenhausen, Germany they produce beer from ecologically produced ingredients only. You can taste it there and the restaurant doesn’t serve the traditional high-caloric, unhealthy brewery-food normally served at these places. Continue reading “Schinkels Brauhaus”
It is maybe the smallest and most narrow Greek restaurant in the city center of Göttingen, Germany: the restaurant Hellas in the Kurze-Geismar-Straße. You should therefore better reserve a table if you want to eat there – but if you’re lucky you might even get a table spontaneously in the rear part behind the bar. Continue reading “Hellas!”
One of the nicest walks I made near Hann. Münden, Germany! You can follow a small river from where it runs into river Werra up the hill to its sources. On the way there are small waterfalls, natural small ponds and you have to cross the river multiple times on improvised wooden and stone bridges.
The Fuhrmannstein is a rock placed at a crossroad in the forest near the Rinderstall in Hann. Münden, Germany. It has been placed there in 1926 in memory of Karl Fuhrmann. He was head of the local hikers association, owned a cigar factory and was the creator of the local youth hostel. Continue reading “Fuhrmannstein & Schutzhütte”
It is the smallest museum in Hann. Münden, Germany – the Wald- und Jagdmuseum (forest and hunting museum) next to the Rinderstall in the middle of the forest. It is just one room in a hut. But it contains a lot stuffed animals, mushrooms and information about the forest. Continue reading “Wald- und Jagdmuseum”
Between the city boundaries of Hann. Münden, Germany and its externally located city quarter Bonaforth you can find the Rauschenbunnen – a small and unimportant well that must have meant something to somebody in earlier days. Otherwise the beautiful decoration and the stonework around it is not explainable. Continue reading “Rauschenbrunnen”
The Jagdhaus Heede in Hann. Münden, Germany has an old-fashioned name – but also a good and modern menu. It is a restaurant with an attached hotel in a remote part of the city directly next to the forest on Blümer Berg. Continue reading “Jagdhaus Heede”
It is an artists who is tightly connected to the city of Hann. Münden, Germany – even though he wasn’t born and he didn’t die there: Prof. Gustav Eberlein. Hann. Münden became his hometown after his parents moved there and the citizens are still admiring him and his works. Continue reading “Prof. Eberlein”
It is a memorial many people get close to every day without recognizing it: the Gedächtnis der Gleise (memory of the railway tracks) at the main railway station (Kulturbahnhof) of Kassel, Germany. I just discovered it by accident after using the railway station for two years twice a day.
In an industrial zone of Potsdam, Germany you can find the candy factory of Katjes (in Germany well-known for gummy bears, also vegetarian ones). Here you can get up to the first floor to watch one production line and see how candy is made. Continue reading “Bonbon factory”
