@HTelk46654 Sehr schön gesagt, Toby! Reisen ist wirklich etwas Wunderbares und zeigt uns, wie Kultur Menschen auf der ganzen Welt verbinden kann, erst recht mit Musik.

@VisitGermanyUK Großbritannien hat seine Reiter, Frankreich hat seine Künstler, Italien hat seine Oper und Russland hat sein Ballett. Aber eines ist sicher: Deutschland hat seine Musiker und klassischen Komponisten. Sie sind die Grundlage für jede große Musikform, die danach kam. 🇩🇪

🎼 Arnstadt: The Town of Bach 🎼 Known as the "Gateway to the Thuringian Forest," Arnstadt is where Johann Sebastian Bach began his musical career. In 1703, at just 18, he served as the organist at the Arnstadt Church. Do you enjoy Bach’s timeless music? 🇩🇪✨ #VisitGermany

@Brooksy_1611 Actually, you've spelled it perfectly! But Neuschwanstein is always magical, no matter how you spell it. 😊✨

@VisitGermanyUK Neuschwanstein - which I’ve probably spelled wrong 🤦🏽‍♀️

@OliphantWullie Ja, Wullie, genau, Neuschwanstein ist richtig! Die Kirche, die du erwähnt hast, ist die Wieskirche – ein wunderschönes Rokoko-Juwel. Danke, dass du deine Erinnerungen mit uns geteilt hast!

@VisitGermanyUK Ist das Neuschwanstein ? Ich habe die Schloss in 1984 besucht . Wir haben Die Weiss Kirche in die Umgebung auch besucht.

@MartinaNews62 Spot on, Martina 😄👍

@KernowDeej Autumn must have been just as magical, DJ—did the forest leaves turn golden and create a breathtaking view when you visited?

@VisitGermanyUK Stunning views, wasn’t that snowy when I visited Neuschwanstein last autumn

@RichardAinley8 Baden von Macc les Felt may not have a castle, but that sunrise/sunset looks lovely, Richard! Thanks for sharing

@VisitGermanyUK Perhaps not Macclesfield ? .. Baden von Macc les Felt?
