The information here is so helpful and the photos are excellent! Thanks!
Hab gerade diese Seite entdeckt, die mir wohl entgangen war.... Wer weiß, vielleicht werden wir Zeit haben, auch Jena anzuschauen.
und Du hast fantastische deutsche Seiten Chris ^..^ a wealth of information here, thank you for sharing
I'm surprised at why some Jena's citizens don't like colours building, they're so beautiful. Kartoffelhaus sounds great, I'd like to visit it some day.
Great page, I like the colored houses!
Thanks for the great tips on your page - heading that way in october
I need to learn more about the German poets.
Those buildings make people thinking deeper ...
I like it!
Nice page
