January 2, 2025,Altstadt Fritzlar🤩 & Ederwehr

First to the Ederwehr and then to the beautiful historic old town. In the heart of Fritzlar's old town is the market square with its beautiful half-timbered ensemble and the Roland fountain.
The 2.7km city wall and the watchtowers are still well preserved.
Of course better seen during the day and absolutely worth seeing. I got going a little late. …

Creepy weather 🌧️🌧️🌧️, but a vacation is a vacation, and for us, a vacation always means getting out into the fresh air 🌬️

Fritzlar is on the agenda. The idea originally came to me when I saw @Doris & Rainer, valued long-time followers from the Hanover region, on their day trip to Fritzlar on komoot.
