Our excursion leaves this morning at 9:10 via train so we grabbed an early breakfast. Today is Milo’s day off so Erwin hooked me up with some French toast and mixed berries with mascarpone cheese.

We headed off the boat and caught the train. Hope it doesn’t go too fast because it doesn’t look super safe.

We rode the 5 mins ride to town and was dropped at the Mexican restaurant. Too bad it wasn’t open because Mexican actually sounds delicious.

The official tour started off at the leaning tower of Wertheim (not the real name.) This town apparently floods all the time (or used to) and the erosion of the ground caused a 5% lean.

The attempted to fix it by attaching the top part as a counter balance but it made things worse.

This tower isn’t a watchtower but rather a prison used for petty crimes such as women nagging their husbands. They would be lowered down and kept there for a week or two with no light. Food would also be lowered to them.

This area was an area where Jewish people lived among butchers which was one of the first examples of Jewish persecution. This town is also responsible for many witch killings…even more than Salem.
