A Week in Wiesbaden, Germany

I spent a week in Wiesbaden visiting my step brother and his family. His second child had her christening ceremony so that was the main reason to visit, and also see the rest of the family and eat, a lot!

We had so much good food, thanks Gerd and Elka for the amazing meals, I gained 5.2lbs this trip. But it was worth it!

I haven't has so much sausages, schnitzel, pretzels, and amazing desserts before, plus the steak, Gerd's special wild boar bratwurst that he shot himself. Amazing food!

Being in the military, I was stationed in Wiesbaden for 7 years. Then a couple of years ago I had to leave back for United States. I absolutely loved Wiesbaden, so thanks for doing this video. I miss Wiesbaden and all of Germany. I had my own car but used public transportation as well. The bus, train and even bicycle. There were so many bike paths. The food and fests were awesome. The hotel you stayed in was just a block away from my apartment, the Paulaner resturant was my view from my window. Thanks again for posting the video.

You are so lucky to experience Wiesbaden. It is a beautiful walkable town. I was in high school (HH Arnold) in the early 60s and lived with the Germans for the first few months I was there. From our flat in Hainerberg we could look across the valley as see the gold domes of the church in your video. A great side trip is Mainz across the river. Thanks for the post.

Great video about this German town of Wiesbaden which I have never heard before. Germany is the European country that I have visited the most and what I love about this country is amazing, one of a kind villages and small towns. Love the green statue of a walking guy. It looks so cool.

Great vid! I was stationed at
Lindsey Air Station which was walking distance to downtown.

I’m blown away by the
Nerobergbahn, which I Googled to see if it was there when I was and I see it
was built near the tail end of my stay. I used to run through downtown and up
into the hills where the church with the gold domes are.

I plan on making a return
visit this year.

Glad you posted this. I loved it.

Great video, Todd! Wiesbaden looks great. It looks pretty similar to Karlovy Vary of Czech Republic because of hot springs & its architecture. :)

I'll definitely be sharing this video with some friends because she and her husband just got stationed in Germany and wanna know all the ins and outs! You show how diverse Germany can be...and I when I visited..this is wasn't how I got a feel for it so I will definitely have to go back!

The food in the bakery looked like it was all props! But, if there's two things Germany is great for it's food and beer! The rack of ribs was enormous!
