Weimar-Coburg

Weimar, another town with so much history! Only a small place but recognised by UNESCO as world heritage. At times, home to Goethe, Schiller, Bach and Liszt.
The Market Square today and yes, they did have a few market stalls selling lovely summer fruits and the traditional Thuringian sausage and of course, we had one, the best in Germany, so far!
This trip around Germany is not only about the history and beautiful scenery but also about the traditional beer, wine and food!

                       
                       
After Weimar, was Coburg with the amazing medieval Coburg Castle, originally built in 1225. We had several hours to wander around this castle and I took so many photos here, as I was fascinated by the medieval weapons, armour and wagons that were on display.

                        
                        
This wagon from around 1560.
                        
One of the amazing rooms.

Honestly, so many photos!
