Würzburg
 
Rothenburg

I returned here in August 27, 1999 and stayed for a week, during which I found that virtually nothing had changed. Würzburg is a moderate sized city on the Main river in northern Bavaria between Frankfurt and Nürnburg. I also went on a day-trip down to Rothenburg, a beautiful medieval, walled city just an hour south. While in Würzburg, I went all over the place, revisiting old haunts like Versbach, across the Main River, and Leighton Barracks.

Würzburg The Marktplatz in Gerbrunn (a suburb of Würzburg), on which a pretty good pizza restaurant, Linie 14, is located. Lincoln 353, army housing just off of Leighton Barracks. I lived on the ground floor on this end 1990-1992.
Leighton Barracks. This part of base is just mostly shopping facilities and other conveniences for the Americans.<br>The road used to follow the sidewalk, but this changed sometime between 1992 and 1999. The Marienkapelle and part of the Marktplatz. Würzburg's Kapelle

The Residenz Gardens Myself by some of the Residenz's flowers 30 Unterer Kühlenberg, my family's old townhouse in Versbach, just outside of Wurzburg. We lived on this end, so those windows were once ours.<br?My bedroom was the upper-right window, actually! And I even had a skylight! Pretty cool!
Versbach is surrounded by farmer's fields.
