100 Years of Bauhaus»The ultimate goal of all artistic activity is architecture« (Walter Gropius)

The State Bauhaus was established in 1919 as a school of arts in Weimar by Walter Gropius. At the time it was something brand new in terms of style and concept; the Bauhaus represented the coming

together of art and craftsmanship. The Bauhaus existed from 1919 until 1933 (in Weimar, Dessau and Berlin) and to this day is considered globally to be the birthplace of the avant-garde, the Clas-sical Modern, functionalism, New Objectivity and New Architecture - all areas of free and applied art. To this day it plays a significant role in shaping modernist currents, influencing architecture, art and design in the 20th century. Group tours and visits are possible.

The Cologne Cathedral, one of Europe‘s largest mas-terpieces of Gothic architecture is a tourist magnet. The Aachen Cathedral, which draws influence from several eras, was not only the Kaiser‘s burial chur-ch, but was also the coronation venue for many German rulers. The Zollverein Coal Mine Industrial Complex in Es-sen, in contrast, is a testament to a more modern era, it was an active coal mine from 1851 until 1986.

A Rococo masterpiece, Augustusburg Palace, often known simply as Schloss Brühl, is one of the earliest significant Rococo creations in Germany. From 1949, Augustusburg Palace has been used for decades as by the German President and the Federal Government for hosting receptions. The baroque garden, desig-

ned in a French style, is one of the most authentic 18th century gar-dens in Europe. Just a short walk from here, hidden within a small fo-rest, is the Falken-lust hunting lodge.

UNESCO World Herita-ge: The Museum Island in Berlin is one of the most outstanding museum estates in Europe. It presents archeological findings, pain-tings and sculptures of different periods. The six »Housing estates of the 1920s« (built between 1919 and 1934) define clear and new forms. The listed buildings are important witnesses of the social housing in this time and the whole 20th century. On the other hand you can find Prussian lifestyle in lavish variety in Potsdam. The castles and gardens in Potsdam, the Sanssouci parks, Neuer Gar-ten and Babelsberg with their castles, The Sacrow Castle and Park, the Russian Colony and many other venues are all listed as UNESCO World Heritage sites.

Bad Reichenhall – hiking wonderlandroaring waters and craggy hillsides. Noteworthy is the Ramsauer Malerweg a path through the romantic »Magic Forest« to the picturesque Hintersee lake. On the way you pass the world-famous parish church St. Sebastian and the chapel Kalvarienberg. You should also plan for a visit to the pilgrimage church Maria Himmelfahrt. Watzmann, Jenner, Obersalzberg, Predigtstuhl, Hochstaufen – many mountains want to be climbed. The view of the magnificent Alpine scenery, of deep ravines, green mountain pastures, crystal-clear mountain lakes and dense forests are the reward for the hard ascent. If you prefer things a little easier you can travel up the Predigtstuhl mountain with the cable car of the same name. You can relax with a yummy Brotzeit meal in one of the mountain huts or while sunbathing on a bench. If you are lucky you can catch a glimpse of ibex, marmot or chamois or maybe even one of the rare golden eagles.

The Starnberger lake is the first stop. After a walk through the park of Feldafing, which offers an oak and beech-framed view of the Starnberger lake and the picturesque mountain range of the Alps, you will carry on by Zille (barge, flat boat) to Rose Island. Here hund-

reds of roses emit their intoxicating scent during the blooming season. A visit to the »Holy Mountain of Andechs« with its monastery church should not be omitted during a visit of the Ammersee lake. During a boat trip on the lake you can enjoy the view of the picturesque shoreline. The journey continues to the Pilsensee lake. Framed by wide reed and water lily fields it is the epitome of Bavarian pre-Alpine paradise. The way back to the hotel takes you past the Wörth-see lake and the Weßlinger lake.

A tour of discovery of Düsseldorf and CologneWhether you travel to the »longest bar in the world« in the Dusseldorf Old Town at the start of the season or at the end really doesn‘t matter.

Depending on the location, the homegrown beers and well-known monastery beers will be offered alongside more unusual beers from all around the world.
