cowpoke fortress is popularly called the crown of franconia its nickname is no coincidence widely visible from afar it dominates the region so a visit to the castle is worthwhile not only because of its many our treasures but also for the view it come our. way. big topic is that beer the region has the highest brewery density in the world the 1000000 inhabitants have about 200 breweries and more than 1000 different beers to choose from many circular walks leap from beer to have superior to. the franconian switzerland the breweries are especially close to each other the community is even mentioned in the guinness book of world records the circular rolls here is 14 kilometers long takes about 4 hours and connects 4 breweries.

the 1st stage leads to the start up brewery. they have dark beer. but if it fits in with things in general i prefer light but this stark one is really delicious. breweries hikers pass you get a stamp in it for every brewery you visit and when you have all 4 stamps you get a certificate as a franconian honorary beer drinker here's our stamp to start with. but. equipped with a hiking pass i continue to the county boy. and the guy choice brewery so each

period tastes different from sweet to smokey to tart they've got everything i look . in the brewery restaurant i meet your queen christina i have a few questions but 1st of all we order a beer and something to eat. and i'd like an officer and roast pork to get with it. i'll have to chew. while we wait for a meal you can take a look at the surroundings this is located in what's known as franconian switzerland and there you'll find caves castle ruins and bizarre rock formations. franconian switzerland picturesque river violence alternate with woodlands and limestone cracks. villages national and the countryside

like this one. in the portlock valley. the bizarre rock formations are especially popular with climbers. there are also long. so trials for hikers you go up and down hill through sinkholes and pass council rooms. and. there's a mysterious place hidden in the forest here possibly a pre-christian cult site. regularly caves guided tours of the natural wonders in franconian switzerland. also that though we have a high in the druids grove these are basically a labyrinth of rocks. and was probably originally

a cave system. in prison for now there's no roof to the cave anymore so you can see all the rocks and it's definitely quite a rarity. office with a gun safe in itself fun. as a you have almost this was a cia during the late jurassic period and that's where the name franconian giora comes from this feeling that there was many 1000000 years ago and these layers of limestone were deposited in the sea. to discuss how the rocks originated. and it's just those rocks that gave the region its name because it reminded people of a swiss alpine landscape crags valleys caves and small hamlets bits of switzerland in germany but franconian in character.

but of. another beer. and like dogs are somewhat sucked back of what is this beer the opening from god and all when i dream king annabella from the alphabet of riverina which is a 6th generation family run business one i love this. one is something light and color in the glass and it's lovely delicate creamy head it's really a treatment small we should try it out so absolutely i'm off about the war. yeah. like. i'm sure it would agree thank you if i could. how would you describe recalling cuisine several different idea good question franconian in cuisine is hearty as it is so it is includes me then dumplings are

served to accompany it. often it's actually cooked to have been sourced because like this one sport this. is what we often find a partner. pork roast is also a hearty dish that lines your stomach for the next beer just short of the beer cream what's your actual job day in day out talking on screen again has it been missed i'm not a big queen 24 hours a day actually i'm a full time teacher absolution after school is over and at weekends and during school holidays finished i travel through my realm is big queen in here. and now throughout germany to raise the region's profile and spread the word about its high quality beer and. indeed it and also i have already had a bureau to aid you as an expert might have a tip on how to not get too confused if you know what i mean. as written is as money it is important to line your stomach eyes with

a dish like sauerkraut. there's a saying that you shouldn't drink beer before 4 pm but that doesn't apply in a overflying can offer i'm going to the hardware people often drink beer at morning get togethers. but you don't want to drink on an empty stomach. if i now while the s. an event where i have to drink several bin is what i've been off and i think water in between to thin out the alcohol. i know works well. it was to put in in. thanks and before i forget it i've got my hiking pass and there's still a stamp missing finished and i think if you get that for me. to toss and you're connected to list them what's missing but a certificate is right you know you're certificate and a friend sent me an honorary. congratulations that's for what in order the i get my pleasure this certificate makes a great mental but even better is

and his wife when he go into who were later canonized to go into. what's here now is the 3rd cathedral from the 13th century it was billed as a pilgrimage church rather than the parish church so the focus is on the tomb of the saints. so of us what you see here is the only marble piece in the church on the lid are the recumbent figures of the 2 saints. on its side are legends surrounding the imperial council of oxen's and. the cathedral is especially famous for this figure. so rancid and here from here you have a lovely view of the back horseman what was so unusual about it and well 1st it was the 1st life size statues since antiquity if the writer were standing up he'd be about my size one meter 65 and about the average height for his time as i'm outside . whom he reprints remains

a mystery. bombeck was billed as a center of ecclesiastical power built like rome on 7 hills the city is therefore also called for. the cathedral square was the political heart of come back to this day there are maginnis is in buildings such as the idaho and the noir is the difference. down in the valley citizens settled in today city center so mission it's here and now we're at the own town hall we've just come from the cathedral and episcopal town district and when we cross the river we'll be in the middle class island district the town hall was meant to link both parts of the town and that's why they built it in the middle of the river. and then 1st of all just giving bum back another landmark. as you know you can send us your travel videos but we also love to visit you and this time we met the musician jason

872 and built the man she beat up on feet for himself and his family today it's a museum and you can even visit that's great. by a boy wagner was able to realize his. long cherished plans for his own festival hall at 1st he was interested in the murky opera house. it's one of the most beautiful garage theatres in the world and is a unesco world heritage site. it's recently been renovated and it's back to its former glory. wagner want it more so he had his own opera house built every here from the end of

july to the end of august wagner offense from all over the world come to the famous by a wide festival. loudness fest in the house pool festival theater in by hoyt. every year celebrities and v.i.p.'s grace its red carpet. it's as much a part of the festival as richard wagner's music. does is probably mainly because of this there's his acoustic sound because it's a unique all frantic venue. this theater was built by and for richard wagner well over 100 years ago now and it's still standing in the same place and basically functions just as it did in the 19th century view. that must be a major part of its fascination for us and that's when i was. the pyrite festival

is a media event the british era parents prince charles queen sylvia of sweden and german chancellor angela merkel have all been hand. celebrities and journalists back now would have loved it. the festival keeps up with the times. from 2008 to 20111 production a year was publicly screen john festival square. since 2009 there have been children's versions of the wagner's operas. and since 20121 production a year has been streamed live to cinemas. but the many valid no love as there is nothing better than being right there in by right.

this is something whole package is fabulous the atmosphere and of course the theater itself it comes in what if i can't put it into words it's just a feeling. that's what's wonderful about music and art i think rip you emotionally . fast you don't want to miss that and you and you and you have to learn wagner and that's that you have no options you know you have to you have to do it. by rights and peeled remains unbroken some people accept years of waiting for a ticket just to be part of the glamorous weldon's richard wagner. my visit to offer has come to an end in the center of by a void here at the new pelisse with its romantic or just garden. that's from overflowing with its 1000 types of beers historic cities and beautiful landscapes very important for the region are also the people themselves they are
