Four different locations in one day! Photos 1-13 are at the Krautheim Castle ruins which, unfortunately, were closed for the morning. We would have had to wait around for several hours to see inside and since we had lots planned that day, we decided to head to our next destination, the Schöntal Abbey, photos 14-41. Next on the agenda was the town of Öhringen, shown in photos 42-58 and finally, we finished the day in Schwäbisch Hall, photos 59-75. Wandering around the city, I came across one of the oldest "Fachwerkhaus" buildings in Germany, a common and specific type of construction using heavy, crisscrossing wooden beams. This building dates back to the year 1289, well over 700 years old and still standing solidly with the original wooden beams intact! The plaque denoting this historical building is shown in photo 65 and in 66 & 67, the building is the one on the right side.
