Weimar

Today Mrs. Allen and I decided to explore Weimar, a designated "Classical city" in Germany, while our students had a normal school day (which was however shortened due to the heat)

Weimar, the birthplace of Germany's first constitutional assembly (often referred to as the birthplace of the "Weimar Republic"), Weimar, the city where Schiller and Goethe wrote their most famous works, where Franz Liszt  had his music school, where Johann Sebastian Bach 's composed most of his famous organ music and where one of the first public libraries houses many of Germany's most famous works of literature, the Duchess Anna Amalia Library.  Here are a few impressions from our day.
