Weinheim 26 Juli 2008













Visited Stadt Weinheim, otherwise known as Zwei-Burgen Stadt, because there are two Burgen(fortress) on the hill beside the town.

We strolled along the Schau und Sichungsgarten Hermarinshof (A Flower Garten) and took many snapshots of the colorful Blumen there. We spotted 2 couples taking wedding pics there.

Then, we went to the most crowded street, Markplatz, where all the restaurants and Bistros were located.

Took a 20 min fußweg zur Ruine Windeck vor Weinheim Martplatz. And of course, from higher ground, we could see the whole of the town. Mannheim and BASF could also be seen from there. I want my Binoculars so that I can see more... Since rain was imminent, we rushed down the hill in record time of 10min.

The other fortress, Wachenburg, is too high and unreachable (as in there is no footpath to go there)

Another Saturday, another Schloss/Ruin conquered in Rheinland-Pfalz ;)
