Charlemagne at the rice mill by Lake Würm, the Bavarian Hiasl, the cat sausage in Geiselwind, the Bamberg scales, the plague bird in Gräfendorf - and the seven Swabians must not be missed as they lead their campaign from Augsburg over Kempten to the distant land of Lake Constance. A rich tradition tells of countless stories: King Watzmann, Eppela Gaila - and where does the name Aschaffenburg actually come from? Mario Junkes has collected the best of these tales and legends and dressed them in a more modern language. This way, you too can partake and travel in no time from Bad Kissingen to Passau, from Coburg to Oberstdorf, from Günzburg to Cham, and from Rothenburg to Nuremberg and Munich. Whether one calls the Free State a vacation destination or even home - the gifts of Bavaria are always a delight.
