1st and foremost these boats are tourist attractions but they were once the only way to get around the ship they have flat bottoms because the canals aren't all that deep each property has its own moorings. legend has it that the devil dug all the channels with the help of his oxen of course that's not how they came into being they were formed by the retreating ice sheet at the end of the last ice age. and. such frankly people. to this day the people in this way invited to receive their mail by boat.

larger and it reaches all the way to dissolve the river and up to berlin and down to the saxon or a month and leave it as you could think this spray broadsword actually kind of made a bad choice by coming here with all the canals and many mosquitoes here but water played an important role it's essential for catching fish and there are plenty of forests in the area and the swamps help keep invaders out. so i think the overall conditions for settling right here in the middle of the spray about weren't actually that bad after all. that he didn't. need to get us out when he yelled over the centuries have been persecuted their language for baden can you tell us a bit about the history. but 1st the sorbs were christianized and they were treated like a minority for hundreds of years when they were more or less oppressed across the ages looked they never govern themselves there was never a sore bridge again. but against all odds the sorbs managed to preserve their
12:42 pm
culture especially by adapting and possible that was their key to success governments had given the un person i thought. well that's one who is it difficult to keep the army and traditions alive. i have in mind the sort of popped one called if you look at the customs the celebrations of the traditional costumes often those are really popular in the villages as you can see here in the museum. so it's a very different story with this sort language it's a complicated language that's tricky to learn it takes effort to see their language initiatives and even a high school in columbus were pupils going to learn the sword language there is a sword media to newspapers t.v. radio and so i think people are quite worried about how to keep their complicated language alive. make it appealing enough so others want to learn it. unfortunately i don't have more time to explore the open air museum i have another boat to catch.
