<\/p>\nAm Vortag hatte ich zum Fr\u00fchst\u00fcck mein mittelalterliches Kleid vorgef\u00fchrt, das ich rein zuf\u00e4llig dabei hatte … (oder doch nicht?) Und da fiel Torbens Vater ein, dass in Wernigerode Mittelaltermarkt w\u00e4re. Diese kleine Stadt hat immerhin \u00fcber 33.000 Einwohner. Hier die Lage und das Wappen:<\/p>\n
The day before, at breakfast, I had shown off my medieval dress, which I just happened to have brought along … (or maybe not?) And that made Torben’s father think of the medieval market taking place in Wernigerode. This small town has over 33.000 inhabitants. Here the location and the coat of arms:<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Also sind wir an diesem Samstag in das h\u00fcbsche Wernigerode gefahren.<\/p>\n
So on this Saturday we drove to pretty Wernigerode.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Hier seht Ihr im Hintergrund unser eigentliches Ziel: das Schloss, wo der Mittelaltermarkt passenderweise stattfinden sollte.<\/p>\n
Here in the background you see our final destination: the castle where the medieval market was to be held most fittingly.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Hier sind wir dem Schloss schon ganz nahe. Huch! Und da ist ja auch das Kleid!<\/p>\n
Here we are getting real close to the castle. Oops! And there you can also see the dress!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Aber es geht hier ja um das Schloss ;-). Ein wundersch\u00f6ner Bau, mit vielen T\u00fcrmchen und h\u00fcbschen Details.<\/p>\n
But we really want to tell you about the castle ;-). A beautiful building with many small towers and pretty details.<\/p>\n

Dieser Wasserspeier zum Beispiel ist doch wirklich sehenswert:<\/p>\n
This waterspout for example is really worth a look:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Wir durften auch die Innenr\u00e4ume besichtigen – nur leider gab es dort ein Fotografier-Verbot, also keine Fotos. Aber: wer mal in die Gegend kommt, dieses Schloss lohnt sich von innen und au\u00dfen! Ich habe mich nun wirklich nicht getraut, heimlich Fotos zu machen. Denn gleich beim Betreten des Innenhofes hatte mich Abt Michael von Krosigk ausgesp\u00e4ht: „Ha! Das ist einfach! Rote Haare und ein Seelenf\u00e4nger!“ Also hat er mir eine Hexenlizenz ausgestellt:<\/p>\n
We were also allowed to view the interior of the castle – but unfortunately taking photos was forbidden there, so no pictures. But: if one of you ever happens to be in the area , this castle is well worth it, from the outside and the inside! I really did not dare taking photos in secret. Because right when I walked onto the courtyard, the abbot Michael von Krosigk espied me: „Ha! That is simple! Red hair and a soul-catcher!“ So he issued a witch’s license for me:<\/p>\n

Ein Auszug: Sie ist vor uns gebracht worden und wir pr\u00fcften sie aufs genaueste. Dabei stellten wir fest, dass sie die Hexenkunst beherrscht. Wir verf\u00fcgen, dass sie dem n\u00e4chsten Kloster \u00fcbergeben werde.<\/em><\/p>\n An extract: She has been brought before us and we questioned her most exactly. In doing so we ascertained that she is versed in the craft of witches. We therefore decree that she be handed over to the nearest convent.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Hier seht Ihr \u00fcbrigens den Abt, der hat n\u00e4mlich auch die Ritterspiele geleitet:<\/p>\n Here you can see the abbot, by the way, because he also managed the knights‘ tournaments:<\/p>\n Am Ende durften auch die gr\u00f6\u00dferen Kinder gegen die Ritter antreten, die kleineren hatten auf einem alten Karussell ihren Spa\u00df:<\/p>\n Finally the older children also got to compete against the knights, while the younger ones had fun on this old merry-go-round:<\/p>\n Ja, wir hatten einen sehr sch\u00f6nen Tag dort. Das Wetter war perfekt, es gab viel zu sehen und zu kaufen (es mag sein, dass Torben sich da ein Ritterschwert zugelegt hat … aber ich verrate – noch – nichts), und nat\u00fcrlich gab es auch viel zu essen und zu trinken. Und wenn man dann die Folgen zu sp\u00fcren bekam, gab es sogar eine Flatrate:<\/p>\n Yes, we had a very nice day. The weather was perfect, there was much to see and to buy (it might be that Torben bought himself a knight’s sword there … but I will not give anything away – yet), and of course there was much to eat and drink on offer as well. And when one got to feel the effects of that, there was even a flat rate to be had:<\/p>\n English: For the use of the toilets we ask for -,50 Cent, or use our peeing flat rate: pay 2,-\u20ac once and then go as often as you like or can.
