| Franconia Open Air Museum |
What luck! When we aimed for Bad Windsheim last night, we knew there was an open air museum in town, but read that it was closed on Mondays. During our morning walk we passed the entrance and noticed a few cars and indeed it was open. Another great find. The buildings moved here are all from Franconia, the local area, and include homes, barns, trades, and even a pub, many from the 17th and 18th centuries. Signage was in German but I think we picked up enough information just by observing. Not many visitors, though a couple of school groups were enjoying themselves, so school must still be in session. We covered about 70% of the museum before forcing ourselves to leave.
We had lots of riding ahead today. We picked up lunch supplies and took some scenic back roads until 2 when we stopped for lunch in Marktbreit along the Tauber River. No time to see the town unfortunately. Back on the road, completing our journey along the lovely Neckar River to Heidelberg, and arriving at 6:30.
