3:21 pm
of course when there is. what we call sensible exhibitions it's these one unfortunately we check every day. we live really those security you know traditions so to give us i was always the fear in the back of my mind that something might happen to me like you know time might be made the target of an attack but we expected it to happen eventually let's see and get. in $2988.00 while on display in vienna several portraits were vandalized the incident made headlines around the world the shops are gone the matai gone i just couldn't bare it all those pictures destroyed the swastikas over their faces that was really tough it tore me out survivors cooled me and of course they were appalled by what had happened about the force but they said luigi what young don't give up we didn't leave the boy. beyond us all an issue must.
3:22 pm

3:24 pm
is one of the few places where i can really relax and unwind this for the coffee and taking the photographs is not all aspects hack you learn itself it's in countering the people i'm more interested in this stories i can't get them out of my head. it's affected me so deeply there were times where i couldn't sleep for days on end and i suffered a sudden hearing loss it's something that i really needed time to get used to or i had to get used to because otherwise it's impossible to come to terms with all that's insanity. but the whole of course is something i've always grappled with. and that's why i developed this concept of displaying portraits in public spaces. to intentionally
3:25 pm
provoke to say hey there are still people around people who survived that madness. and yet in some places in communities around the world we act as though the whole thing never happened. to. final preparations are made in a warehouse on the outskirts of paris. the latest photos have just come back from the printers. on one hand you look at the details to make sure everything's alright on the other when you're standing. here face to face so to speak you have flashbacks of the true encounter. 4 days later installation begins portraits from the igi toscano lest we forget series have already been exhibited in
3:26 pm
new york berlin and washington d.c. so. it's pretty impressive i have to say this is the biggest exhibition to now so it's a whole new dimension in itself. we're presenting over 200 photos here and people are starting to come and look at them and read the stories and that's just what i had hoped to achieve so i used this was a sheet of ice english to. the exhibition inside the unesco building includes a portrait of 86 year old russian d.d. knock to date toscano has photographed some 400 people for his series he doesn't have a favorite what matters to him are the people they represent he knows all of them by name. was a lot of susan who was actually the 1st woman i was able to photograph and she made a last thing impression on me. she said something very profound for those who
3:27 pm
forget the past but to repeat it. and i think she entrusted me with this saying and said take it and internalize it and keep this saying in mind when you need it most. when people start to relativize or even to noir the holocaust it's a fine line and. it's the day of the opening all the portraits are in place and the photographer is feeling a bit nervous. for survivors a coming of course a nervous because we're talking about survivors who allowed me to take that poor traits and now that we seeing the pictures for the 1st time. hope everything goes well. he's worried about the reaction of one man in particular and he his own father of on yes who's all former health minister of france. so.
3:28 pm
the circuits really exciting up. the good groove i guess this is the reality because i can't stand to see such a sad old my soul. food to. good to be here for the. record exactly. remember. this is she seems to like it a lot that's a nice feeling but i thought the stripper so moment it's not just my fortress because it represents so much more for all those deaths to see the entire show. it's important for this exhibition to exist and to travel around the world it could shift gears back to.
3:29 pm

3:30 pm
in the morning up. in 45 minutes d w. they want to know what makes the dems just hit the gym. and i'm batting away from. i'm not even up towards my own. and everyone was late holding everything to get it are you ready to meet the demands and join me right just do it under a w. welcome to a special edition of check in this time we head to the bavarian alps in the very south
3:31 pm
of germany. before the coronavirus pandemic hosts. and nicole through vision checked out free beautiful winter wonderland around back to scott in opens doors and garnished partition. first off nicole fruition visits the area in and around back to scott and. my tour begins in the city of back to scott in which lend its name to the region. it's over 900 years old and the architecture reflects its rich history. one building that really stands out is the hill. house on the market square the
3:32 pm
murals on the facade depict ancient tales about back to scott. and a little further down the road you'll find a lovely schloss lots or castle square. and i thought it would be nice to pay a visit to the national park here i've met up with ranger klaus milda and we're off to see if we can spot some golden eagle. some will have a good view of remember that it really is it not too steep i'm not at all. just got a national park is the only national park in germany inhabited by golden eagles and there are about 10 of them from close back valley we have a good view of the rocky crags. recently did we look at the trees the treetops up on the mountain those are the places eagles like to shoot that's where you can best
3:33 pm
see them because obviously. but there's no sign of them yet. well looks like this is going to involve a bit of sitting waiting and wishing an ideal time for you guys to dive a little deeper into the national park. way to bet it's got national park is lake county city only environmentally friendly electric boats are allowed to travel the lake which is almost 200 meters deep sort of half way across the captain stops because it's from here that the steep mountain flanks create the famous couldn't see echo.
3:34 pm
after about half an hour the boats reach their destination the hair shout peninsula and st bartholomew's and eye catching 17th century brock pilgrimage church. the church lies at the foot of the box money must see the height of over 2700 meters the mighty mountain has come to symbolize the national park and the entire region. the national park consists of a 4 is own in which nature is left to itself then there is a maintenance zone where alpine meadows are cultivated and tourism is encouraged. several information centers explain the parks flora and fauna one of them the klaus bus house is the perfect starting point for a walk to the deer feeding station. when the rangers replenish the food supply up to 60 red deer venture out from the shelter of
3:35 pm
the trees to feet of the dead lights of visitors. but almost 65 but the golden eagles are a bit shyer than the deer we're still waiting. so. this is. this was so there's no need to separate tourism and conservation they go very well together you see tom koenig's a 600000 people visit some both amused and the lake water is so clean you can drink it because only electric boats are allowed on the lake you have to compromise a little that's not what you do here apart from watching eagles. monitoring the golden eagles there's only one thing it's not a 9 time an important part of our job is looking after tourists we offer guided
3:36 pm
tours every day and of course we rangers are often out somewhere in the park we have 250 kilometers of trials in the national park from barrier free to pounds and we check them on a regular basis to make sure they're in order that sound job to. have been about that's enough talking for the moment let's see if our luck with the eagles has improved a little right in the middle want to see. him looking this way if there really is one. is good. and it gets even better we are one flying through the air. i want to explore even more of best is god's nature so i'm going snowshoeing i've joined a group led by mountain guide hunters. folks who might want to start. with their tour right for the snowshoe.
3:37 pm
yeah then with that he will buckle it on here. just tighten the binding about all that fits comfortably. sites without ready. let's get i want as opposed to give up but one important point we're going to our polls that are in our shoes so walk with your legs far enough apart so you don't step on the poles or your other shoe i am going to make step and we're awful is on with that in the but i had. the good luck to talk for a minute or look at the mountains when we're here we're going to the next one over with the sun shining on a big covered in snow on abortion and that's the horror girl and it's over 2500
3:38 pm
meters that means that. the amazing thing about snowshoeing is the fact that you literally get to walk off the beaten path on completely untouched snow with views that cannot be preached. to. the next item on my tin or ari is a visit to the oldest gentian distillery in germany there gears here for a tour of his history. i thought i taste my way through your range of products through ones i have strict this distillery has been around since 6092. wow there is no mistaking what made it here as you can feel the warmth counter. gentian is an alpine plant that is cultivated and back to scotland and is still to make a better shops to be precise it's the route that's used. the word since
3:39 pm
a root looks like this when it comes out of the ground it's 4 or 5 years old and about 80 centimeters long off the course the roots are chopped and mashed then the liquid is extracted and distilled into shops. and. drink schnapps made from gentian or herb after unwieldy many people drink fruit like yours as a de just tif but that's not healthy it's not the alcohol that helps time gesture and it's the bitterness that's why there's a german saying taste bitter makes the stomach fitter. well then time to give it a try there's a huge selection in the shop course all sorts of flavors but of course i want to try the classic version so if you're here is ok we are at the tasting you can try on our company's most popular product 1st of course is jensen primary product just from the root of a clear strong spirit no residual sugar 40 percent by volume it says ports in.
3:40 pm
their words pungent because of the bitters but it has a well rounded taste. there's a stance the tensions the strength of the mountains how many do you drink a day it's worth to at least mornings and evenings one morning is really. well they're definitely able to hold their liquor that's not for me but a bowl of tension snobs as a souvenir why not. later in the afternoon i treat myself to a drive through the mountains on the rust belt panoramic road. that is it. after just a few kilometers i can say it's well worth it behind every curve there is another amazing view of austria and the fact it's got now lots of.
3:41 pm
our 2nd destination on this check and special is the al gore alps here oberstar. made a trip there before pandemic restrictions were put in place. snow and mountains that's where i'm heading i'm getting closer to the most southern point of germany the algo alps. the algo is a popular holiday region even in winter especially in winter in fact. almost all is located over there it's the winter sports center of the algo region in southern
3:42 pm
germany a perfect starting point for discovering the area i want to go up the mountains and of course come down in one piece i'll be on skis and on the snow by i look forward to lots of nature and adventures galore. postoffice mediæval origin. and. now attracts over $2000000.00 overnight guests every year i want to know what draws them the. bush knows guaranteed because it's so beautiful the skiing is fantastic it's just a lot of fun here. because of the snow and i want to show my girlfriend. the 1st tourists arrived here in the late 19th century. or bust all the visually has a therapeutic climbing it's a quality seal in germany given to places with among other things
3:43 pm
a certain air quality and spa facilities. the local history museum is set up in the next farmhouse where visitors can learn about the area. and marvel at the biggest lead a ski boot in the world and. you can also find out how skiing 1st came to a bus stall. and skiing is the reason i'm here. cold feet. it's been over 10 years since i last put on skis so i spoke to a few hours with a real instructor. hello yes there were 3 look and there he is this is alex i warned him that i'm pretty much
3:44 pm
a total beginner so we'll have to start from scratch. i'll explain the basics and then we're off conditions are perfect. i'm a little nervous because it's all new to be voice of all that's why i'm here we'll take it easy. i'm. going on what is this have to do with skiing a lot we have to push down and tilt the ski with every step and we're putting our weight on it but. after an hour i've learnt the basics and we start to send the. ball.
3:45 pm
and then downhill. i. like to. think it's a lot of fun but you have to be very careful plus i don't think that i'm a natural. now i need a bridge even though i'm at the top of a neighbor 2200 metres and in the middle of nature i don't have to sacrifice on comfort to keep on top of the competition everything here has been renovated faster ski lifts for example and this trendy new restaurant right at the summit.
3:46 pm
of course there. other winter sports on offer in the algo alps besides ski can snowboarding and alex is going to show me what. so this is an alternative to skiing is it more fun or less easier or harder what should i watch for. definitely basically it's like riding a bike but with one main difference we have no brakes but we still have to slow down either by digging our heels into the snow. as we saw him or my curving back and forth like with ski. and you do know how to ski no and let's go.
3:47 pm
it's working. just like even managed to pull of a snowball like. my day in the elbow alps is almost over now it's time for the effort to ski party and almost all you'll find plenty of venue use for a relaxing drink with like minded people are i.
3:48 pm
i. i like the snow the elves and. of course that special feeling at the end of the day when you know you've really accomplished something i'm tired but happy and now i know why the al gore is one of germany's favorite holy their regions is especially in winter. is the 3rd and final stop on this check in special edition while it was still possible before the pandemic. took in the panoramic view. today i'm going to check out its trails germany's highest mountain and again gorge all of it in and around one of the country's most popular destinations for winter sports. but the thing i'm most excited about is the right behind the new cable car will take me to the top note. here i am at the but it's expected excited to board the
3:49 pm
brand new cable car which went into operation in december 2017. the new state of the art cabins can hold up to 120 people it's hoped that this will reduce waiting time in line especially on weekends. and in just 10 minutes we reached the summit at a breathtaking 2962 meters. on clear days you can see all the way to switzerland and even italy it's a panorama that draws more than half a 1000000 people here every year for. where you've come from russia what brings you to that 6 bits of today emotion funtastic
3:50 pm
emotion this is my 1st time in. this is my 1st time. it's so fun to stick on some amazing fabulous view what do you think of the. but this is your 1st time it is my 1st time i love it it's the 1st time i've been in the glacier ball so this is very exciting but what's your plan for the day here you don't think we're going to start out to have some better and do the german thing. was for me is it me you don't look like you're going skiing i mean if i'm going sledding we'll take the cable car down and go sledding on the toboggan rob it's a bunch of the fun. but a lot of people do come here to ski and if you haven't got equipment of your own you can rent it right here.
3:51 pm

3:52 pm

3:53 pm
quickly and easily or whether we have to close the gorge at short notice on both light equipped with the mighty companies now 5 after all these years you probably know the gorge better than anyone and garmisch patent creation or even the whole world what's so fascinating about the partner. and this is for new the gorge has a different ambience in every season and even at different times of the day if you're here at 7 in the morning it's not a toll like 230 or 3 in the afternoon. and some of the sun shines and the birds are singing on as i think the law you to see reflected in a little welcome when i'm here at 7 am all alone it's just wonderful. and i like the fact that it's always different as a day that this doesn't you know on this is but when do you like it best and tell you honestly when it's just below flood level month after it's been raining hard in
3:54 pm
the park now is full to brimming with nature takes over. then you're really in wild pristine nature but that's when i like it best. the city of garmisch was once 2 separate communities the towns were joined in 1936 but both still retain very individual identities cotton is the older of the 2 situated along a trade route from venice to alex book it was founded by the romans over 2000 years ago. thanks trazodone with its historic facades that is its central showpiece. sounded about 800 years later garmisch isn't as old and grand more like
3:55 pm
a quirky little sister with lots of pedestrian zones shops and restaurants to use the back. to. them. and what better way to end an enjoyable visit to the kitchen there are loads of taverns that serve delicious german cuisine i decided to go for a classic cheeses spezza with the british traditional folk dancing on the side. for a major break a trip to the mountain paradise of town this patent known to be and mazing idea of
