2016 River Cruise - Day 9

Arrived in Bamberg this morning.  Walking tour and a "beer tasting" (?).  End of the line for the Main-Danube canal.


Lovely walk from the dock to downtown Bamberg...  Note clouds rolling in.

Old town hall in Bamberg

Beautifully decorated side of the old town hall...

... and the equally decorated other side. :)


Cavalry Sculpture on Upper Bridge in Bamberg

Plaque honoring Claus Von Stauffenberg for his failed attempt to assasinate Hitler.


 

Rauchbier = Smoked beer.  Seriously?  Apparently a Bamberg specialty...

... which we got to sample at a local eatery.  Verdict - must be an acquired taste... :)
