from his immense cliff walls the emerald-green Königssee is
with Berchtesgaden main center of attraction of the
Berchtesgadener land. The fjord-like embedded lake is 8 kms long,
up to 1250 ms wide, 190 ms deep and lies 6 02 ms about NN. Between
Watzmann, Jenner and Gotzenalm the Königssee covers a surface
of the 5.2 square kilometers. After the last ice age the lake was
separated with the glacier decline in two parts. The idyllic
situated upper lake thereby formed at the valley end. The
surroundings of the Königssee form the nuclear zone of the
Alpine park and national park Berchtesgaden. In the national park
the nature will leave as much as possible itself. Missing
settlements and streets, as well as the fact that the boat traffic
is carried out since 1909 exclusively by electric boats guarantee
an untouched nature. The Königssee has drinking water quality.

Neuschwanstein Ludwig II |

Already
in 1869 Ludwig has laid the foundation-stone for the castle high
swan region, the today's new swan stone after plans of Eduard
Riedels, - it should become later one of the most famous and most
fantastic locks of Germany and after the borders of Europe famous.
Ludwig's purpose was to animate the Middle Ages admired by him by
this building anew.
In 1873 Ludwig II acquires the man's island in Lake Chiem and
establishes there the castle man's Lake Chiem as a new Versaille. In
1880 the shell is finished by new swan stone and Ludwig II can visit
it on the 12th December for the first time. Then only in 1884 the
palace is completed, so that the king at the middle of the year
covers there an apartment.
"
I want to remain an everlasting riddle to me and other. "
To
this of Ludwig in a letter to an educator agreed purpose the young
king has remained a time of his life and, even in addition,
faithfully. Ludwig II had the possibilities to move his visions and
left after his puzzling, early death as a manifestation of these
dreams the fairy tale locks visited today by tourists from all over
the world man's Lake Chiem, gentle court and new swan stone. We owe
to him and his support of composer Richard Wagner operas like famous
" the ring of the Niebelungen " and the establishment of
the festival performance house in Bayreuth - Ludwig's influence on
the German history of music is presumably stronger therefore than
his political actions were it ever. As a fairy tale king Ludwig II
most people remains in recollection, as a symbol for the last, good
time, and is called even today in Bavaria honorably " of the
Kini ".

the northern Alpine valleys Already before the conquest Helvetiens
by the Romans passed a small settlement in Zurich. The name of the
place indicates there already at it at the Roman time, Turicum:
This word does not clear from out, the Roman must have existed
compelling already before the arrival. At the Roman time Zurich
was a Vicus of about 250 inhabitants with a duty station, because
the place formed in from in the direction of frontier station
between and. In the fourth century a fort whose remains are still
to be seen on him was established. 401 the fort was left by the
Roman occupying and the next centuries of Zurich lie in the
darkness. In

Alsace with his historical towns, romantic winegrower's little

with the Rhine as an east border was almost during his whole
history borderland. In the first prechristian century the Celtic
Nemeter, Triboker and Rauriker lived here. In the year 58. B.C.
Julius Cäsar thwarted a conquest attempt by the Sueben under
Ariovist what collapses at the beginning of the Roman conquest of
Gaul. Now as a part of the Roman province Germania Superior Alsace
belonged for the next centuries to the Roman empire. Already in
the third postchristian century the Alemanns broke, a loose union
of suebischer partial trunks and other Teuton's trunks, in Alsace,
but only 406/407 fell it finally in her hands. 496 the Alemanns of
the francs were subjected under the Merovingian's king Chlodwig
and bit by bit christianisiert; now Alsace belonged to Austrasien.
By the way, the concept Alsace appears in this time (610) for the
first time with the chronicler Fredegar as an "Alesaciones".
Count Adalrich or Eticho (670-695), supposed ancestor of the
Habsburgs, is to be mentioned as one of the most striking
personalities of early-medieval Alsace. The combination of all
these factors signified hunger, apartment need and unemployment
for the young generation. Therefore, it does not surprise that now
many, as mentioned to Russia, but also to America emigrated where
after the ban of the slave import 1807 workers were used for the
cotton fields. |
