A Video Tour of Marburg

My father and I were looking for videos of Marburg on Youtube and we found this one. It does a pretty good job showing the highlights of the town. I got pretty excited when I could pick out some of the places highlighted here.



Mentioned in the clip is "Jackob Grimm." He was one of the brothers Grimm, responsible for collecting and making famous such fairy tales as "Red Riding Hood" and "Rapunzel." Marburg is proud of its Grimm Brothers history.

Apropos: The elevator is not always the fastest way to get from place to place. In the morning and after work in the afternoon, people using the elevator cause major congestion in the narrow passage. Then it's quicker - and healthier! - to climb up the steps that were shown a few moments earlier in the clip. It's really not that hard.
