Friday took us back
to Hann Munden where we saw some bits we had missed out on. We went
into the Rathaus and saw all the pictures and the hearts from couples
who had married there.
We went to St. Aegidies Church which is now a cafe but having had coffee we couldn’t fit another in so only had a peep at the inside. We saw the gravestone of Dr. Eisenbart who died in Hann Munden – we also saw the house where he died.
We listened to the carillon in the markt again and saw the representation of Dr. Eisenbart at work. The song the chimes play has a satirical meaning - “I am Dr. Eisenbart, I cure people in my own way.” Better than the Angelus any day!
Then we went to Hemeln, a small village on the Weser river by crossing on the non-motorised ferry. We lunched at the ferry pub having what Anne and Dan recommended – Strammer Max which is rye bread with a salami like sausage (Jim) or cured ham (me) both topped with fried eggs. It was very interesting and a satisfying lunch in a beautiful setting. There was a couple about our age lunching beside us. They had arrived by bike. When they were finished they went back to their bikes and seemed to pray and then set off again. I hope they had a safe journey.
When we got home we did a bit of packing and sorting. Then we went into town to see the Aula Maxima in the university but it was closed. Then we spent ages trying to find Prinzenstrasse where we were planning to eat at Szultenburger. It is a very popular spot. You should have seen the size of the schnitzel – I could eat only half of it!
This is a poster of the band Satisfaction that we heard on the evening of culture
we saw a procession heading into St. Michael's for Mass. We were even asked to join them but we declined.
