We spent a lovely morning with bright blue sky and late Autumn sunshine in the little town of Lorsch. Just strolling around the quiet little streets of this very picture postcard market town, watching the antics of the geese who tried all sorts of tricks to grab our attention to their need for some scraps and trying to fit the pieces of a puzzle together of the enigma of Lorsch's two intrigueing buildings. Lorsch - yes - a good place to let your mind wander back through the centuries. |

| Pros: | "Quiet = Relaxing & Laid Back" | | Cons: | "Lorsch has been added to UNESCO - so it may not always be quiet" | | In A Nutshell: | "I'm so glad we saw this place in morning sunshine" |

lynnehamman Thu Jun 11, 2009 09:41 UTC Lovely page, Joan. The garden at the Cloisters must be so fragrant. I also think that the hand-illustrated manuscript is beautiful. Good photos. So great that Ingrid was with you. | Nemorino Wed Mar 18, 2009 11:31 UTC Interesting historical tips! I'm glad to learn that Lorsch has more to offer than just poisoning people with its tobacco products. Great that you were with Ingrid so she could give you a guided tour. She knows that whole area better than anybody else! | HORSCHECK Sun Aug 17, 2008 14:28 UTC Fabulous little page here. This is another town I have never heard of, but this one is located in Germany, my homecountry and not in Scotland. | Cristian_Uluru Thu Aug 7, 2008 20:26 UTC Wonderful page!!!I jsut add it on my place to visit in the future days!!!
