June 4, 2026,Diversiteit in Wernigerode

Harz in miniature, magnificent churches, beautiful streets with half-timbered houses, steam train, Bürgerpark, terraces, nice shops with better souvenirs, aviation museum etc etc
We left the castle as it was for now
At the moment we had to start that climb, it started to rain very hard and blow enormously. So we looked for a restaurant.
