Fish that you can pick like flowers in a meadow. A family of bears made of copper balancing at a remarkable height above a road. A lake that appears and disappears – just as it pleases. Such things shouldn't exist? Oh yes! And the best part: No one made up these stories. They are true. The towns and villages in the Black Forest are full of exciting secrets that particularly interest children. That's why journalists Eva-Maria Bast, Manuela Klaas, and Sabine Wienrich, along with their mascot Lasse Lupe, set out to uncover these mysteries. The result: 50 secrets from the Black Forest for little explorers. From Baiersbronn to Alpirsbach, from Donaueschingen to Furtwangen, from Freiburg to Waldshut. The three women spoke with locals connected to the stories and researched in city archives and libraries.
