Memmingen, Germany 47.99543N 10.18232E

Heading back to Switzerland, we stopped for the night in Memmingen. No particular reason other than wanting to get groceries and there was an inexpensive stellplatz. We were in for a pleasant surprise. Sadly, I didn't have the camera with us and we stayed only 1-day.

For pictures, check out the city's web site - we saw most of the "red" route: http://www.memmingen.de/593.html

The Stellplatz is located right outside the moat and the city is accessible only through one of the gates. From the link above, the best indication of our path is the Green Route link "Luginsland." We walked the outer ring of the city (scroll to the bottom and see the image next to "Neue Welt") and entered at the Luginsland corner tower. The walk continued around the canal until we could find a side-street to allow us access to the city.

I'm not doing the history of the city any favors here - but it's all detailed on their web site. Beautiful place for a brief stop over. We thoroughly enjoyed the quick tour.

I wouldn't have made the blog post, but that I think some readers will really enjoy the pictures of the old city (red route) and in addition, am trying to finish back-filling the details of our journey to date.

Cheers!
