Friday, 24th July.
Leaving Riedenburg this morning, our first stop was in Kelheim to visit Befreiungshalle (Hall of Liberation), commissioned by King Ludwig 1 to commemorate both the victorious battles against Napoleon during the Wars of Liberation 1813-1815 and the unification of all the German races.
The interior of this truly magnificent building is dominated by 34 Goddesses of Victory made of white marble, mounted with linked hands on an encircling base and symbolising the thirty four German states of the German Confederation which was founded in 1815.
Well worth the visit!
On then to autobahn #3 but because of major roadworks and lane closures, we weren't able to access the exit ramp to Bogen, our intended destination and so exited at the next off ramp to check out the camperstop at Bernried, which we found was not as advertised in the guidebook so went on to Lalling. Luckily the scenery was gorgeous, all rolling green hills, patchwork farms etc. as the three of seven camperstops in Lalling that we looked at were misrepresented in the book and we were on the verge of being hot and bothered when we found Wohmobilstellplatz Weber, a large grassed area behind a family home, with all the services needed AND a swimming pool. We jumped in the pool as soon as possible to cool down, then sat in the shade till the sun went down and it was time to retire for the night.
