9:50 this is Lady Bavaria, the patron of Bavaria. Standing on a small hill she overviews the Theresienwiese (Therese`s meadow) where Oktoberfest is celebrated.
9:20 this is the new town hall in Munich. People often think that it is a church because of the clock tower. It is famous for the "Glockenspiel" with figurines dancing and acting.
Friends = Freunde, Friend = Freund. We have over 26,000 Castles and palaces and ruines. But France have over 40,000. Oh that was Cologne Dom/Cathedrale. Oh By the way, in the subtitles of the video you find the names of the regions, cities and some important points (statues, etc.) 3:15 That is the Berliner Cathedrale in the museums island. 5:20 That is Bremen and his Bremer Cathedral. 7:23 The Zwinger is a royal orangery, festival and collection building in Dresden, named after an earlier part of the fortress. It was built by Matthäus Daniel Pöppelmann and Balthasar Permoser for Augustus the Strong between 1711 and 1728. 8:20 Yes, there are Christians (ca. 23%) and Catholics (25%) in Germany. Personally, I'm an atheist, but I was raised a Christian Protestant. 9:25 No that is the Munich Town Hall. 9:57 that is the angel of peace statue (1896). 10:13 that is Frederick I, called Barbarossa, from the noble House of Staufen, was Duke of Swabia from 1147 to 1152, King of the Romans from 1152 to 1190 and Holy Roman Emperor from 1155 to 1190. Barbarossa's election was the result of a compromise between several princes. 11:10 no that is Frankfurt (The Skyline of the financial Hub of different Companies and Banks) 12:31 That is a equestrian statue by King Ernst August from Kingdom of Hannover in the front of the main trainstation. 15:30 Yes, you're right. Many of the noble families that still exist today are still related to each other to some extent. I'm no longer quite sure, but it's based on Queen Victoria's marriage initiative. She had many children with her German husband Albert and brought almost every child into another noble house in order to gain influence. But also because of the many German noble houses (several hundred) and noble families, many married into other houses. 16:10 I couldn't find out exactly what it is. In my opinion, it can only be the national colours of Bavaria. You may be right. There is another flag, but I can't see whether it is one or more colours. It could be the flag of the house.
1:46 Cologne Cathedral, construction was halted for over 600 years, not 300 years 2:56 yes, the Berlin Cathedral looks similar to St. Isaac's Cathedral, both are also around 100 m high. 8:07 The number of church members in Germany in 2023: 47.45%, about half Catholics and Protestants. 5.5 million Muslims live in Germany. Three million of them have German citizenship. Germany has 83.5 million inhabitants. 9:19 no, that is the town hall in Munich. 10:59 ... 60 German cities have trams 11:08-11:45 that's all Frankfurt 12:03 the Saar loop (Saar river) 13:48 Aachen Cathedral, Charlemagne's favorite residence 13:55 Germany's only fjord 14:05 Germany had colonies in Africa, Oceania, the Pacific and China... and somehow also a state in South America that we called Little Venice (Klein Venedig) and is now known as Venezuela 14:33-14:41 Former capital of West Germany, Bonn 15:27 Catherine the Great (Tsarina of Russia) was German 17:11 Wartburg where the Bible was translated into German which led to the division of the Christian denominations 17:49 Eltz Castle, where the noble Eltz family still lives today 19:29 Elmau Castle, where the G7 summit has already taken place twice By the way, I have been in Riga, also in Tallinn and Vilnius, and in St Petersburg, Helsinki, Stockholm, Gdansk..pretty much all major cities in your region of Europe (except Minsk and Kaliningrad)
@@thebestman92-rq5xc Yes, I came by ferry from Sweden across the Daugava. I explored Riga - the old town on foot, saw the Bremen Town Musicians monument, the House of the Blackheads (Schwarzhäupterhaus), the cathedral, later went to the National Library, was at the TV tower (the highest tower in the EU, the tower is 0.5 m higher than the one in Berlin ;-), the many Art Nouveau buildings, the Freedom Monument, the wooden houses quarter, Riga Castle and so on... from Riga I flew to Copenhagen and was able to see Riga and the coast from above.. I liked it a lot
Actually, there are more 25.000 castles in Germany. The reason why castles and churches show similar architectual elements across Europe is...fashion and competition with other buildings at the time of construction, royal and noble house family ties (the British royal family roots, the Rusdian, Austrian ones etc are German) and most importantly the teams of architects and craftsmen were traveling across Europe. Many French castles, cathedrals etc. Were built by Germans, who were partially trained in Italy. Till today, it is a tradition for craftmen trainee to travel for 1 to 2 years. Many old buildings were destroyed and damaged in WWII. They were rebuild with original material.
catholic and protestant are about the same amount in Germany. Maybe a few percent more catholics. You could say in general that the south is more catholic and the north is more protestant. The east is mostly atheist now but thats only because of the Socialist DDR. Religion was illegal in the eastern block.
You always have nice reactions. I like that. I like watching them. What I don't understand is how you bring up World War I and the colonial period when you're watching a sailing regatta. I don't see any connection. Maybe it would have been better to let the pictures sink in more than to talk nonstop.

Thank you will work on my German 🙃🙂
Happy, you chose the "right" (old) version! Music is much better. If you turn on subtitles, it shows you all locations!
Since this is a video I'm more focussed on the scenery and have to say the new version has better scenes.
@@teotik8071 That´s true but it´s not the same with the annoing "new" music. Old music and new scenes would be perfect!
16:00 Yes, blue and white is the Bavarian flag.
Nice i need to start palying lotery more often! 😆😆

13:55 Germany's only fjord
14:05 Germany had colonies in Africa, Oceania, the Pacific and China... and somehow also a state in South America that we called Little Venice (Klein Venedig) and is now known as Venezuela
14:33-14:41 Former capital of West Germany, Bonn
15:27 Catherine the Great (Tsarina of Russia) was German
17:11 Wartburg where the Bible was translated into German which led to the division of the Christian denominations
17:49 Eltz Castle, where the noble Eltz family still lives today
