General information about Black ForestAlmost every community has its own museum of local history. Many places remind you of ancient trade of glass blowing and burning, and of course also of rafts men who transported huge Black Forest trees all way to Holland. Mines open their galleries, castles their doors and visitors are welcome everywhere.
Just like a hundred years ago historic steam engines puff across viaducts and up hills. Because old age is revered in Black Forest. Many records are broken here.
You will find: smallest free town of Holy Roman Empire, Germany's largest leisure park, its highest waterfall and area where you will find most of Michelin stars given to restaurants all over Germany.
Somehow all roads lead to pleasures which are essential for body and soul - Badische Weinstraße (Baden Wine Route), Asparagus Route and whatever all others are called. There is probably one for Black Forest ham, for river trout, one for beer brewed with spring water and one for mineral water. But all these delicacies are served in every decent restaurant.
