Ronneburg - the inside of the castle! (finally )
Hi Mommy,
now we finally got to see the inside of the castle! And it was really exciting!
In the castle gate, they sold swords
and tiny toys, just about the size of me
There were some really nice people, all dressed up in medieval clothes
and then we finally got to see all the historical stuff!
An old piece of armor
a smithy
and the smith's tools
a spinning wheel, where you make wool
an old cannon
a perfect fit, isn't it?
The castle yard
and another stocks
the weapons chamber
the castle kitchen
where we got to taste some spiced wine (delicious!)
some nice furniture and wall hangings
and even a picture of the count!
In the castle, there was even an apothecary's store
and a chapel
We all loved the miniatures of daily life in the middle ages!
and the miniature of the great castle fire of the 17th century
After so much history, we just needed a break!!!
So we wandered in the castle gardens, admiring a peacock
doing some more shopping
and meeting beautiful ladies in self made costumes
who even did a dance for us! Well, not for us alone... but we enjoyed it very much!
On the way back to the car, we even saw an old wooden trailer
Wow, what a day!!!
We went straight to bed when we got back! But it sure was worth it!
Hugs and kisses
