I guess that most of you have never heard anything about Dinkelsbühl before. It’s a historic city (having about 10,000 inhabitants) in the western parts of Bavaria.

The former Imperial Town of Dinkelsbühl is a part of the Romantic Road and one of Germany’s most beautiful mediaeval towns. Dinkelsbühl is still surrounded by old medieval walls and towers and has many patrician houses in particular of the 15th and 16th century.
