There is a kinderfest every year to celebrate the fact that one little girl saved the entire town from being invaded. There was a commander coming to take over their town when he came through the walled gate, he was surprised to find a small blonde girl who looked identical to his neice. He was so taken by the girl that he didnt have the heart to pillage the town and left it in one peice.

Just returned from a trip to Germany and found Dinkelsbuhl to be an absolute charming town/village. We happened upon a festival on September and just joined in with everyone not even knowing for sure what the festival was all about except for good food and lots of fun. A highlight of out three weeks in Europe.
Thanks for your photos.
