Rachel's road trip around Germany continues, and this time she's heading south to Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg. Sure, you might have heard of lederhosen, Oktoberfest and Bavarian beer - but what about "Wasen," Franconian pride and little God cheaters?
On the Meet the Germans road trip, Rachel wants to discover the unique traditions, characteristics and culture that Germany's different regions have to offer. Check out part one on northern Germany here: • Northern Germany: Meet...

To all tourists going to southern Germany: Also like the northern half of Germany doesn't unterstand south-German dialects. So don't wonder if learned German and then you meet some "more native natives" from there. But it's also vice versa for them with other German dialects ;-)

We can be quite friendly to tourists , as long as they plan to leave here again 😜. On a serious note , northern Germans can be very cold and reserved at first , but once you get into their friend zone , it’s actually easier to get accepted as one of them . While in Bavaria , you can be 2nd generation from another German state and still will be a „Zuagroaster“ ( =someone who moved here from somewhere else ). I had a Northern German telling me that she’s been living down here for 10+ years but her neighbors didn’t invite her into their houses once .

When we, a busload of middle-class American Mennonites mostly from Virginia, visited Ludwig II's Neuschwanstein castle, we were allowed to sing in the singing room. We sang a polyphonic anthem, all of us sopranos, altos, tenors, and basses. The suspended fir-panel ceiling made us sound gorgeous. I have never sung in a place with better acoustics, unless it was my one time at Carnegie Hall.

1974, Berchtesgaden, Germany, Bavaria - I was 19, living and working in Berchtesgaden on the bobsled track on the Konigsee. That was a "dream life" come true for me. I had studied German for 3 years before coming to Germany. First, I worked on a farm in far northern Germany, then I hitchhiked around Germany and eventually ended up in Berchtesgaden. My German improved in northern Germany, but not much in deep southern Germany. Germans could understand me fine, but I had difficulty understanding the German dialect/s in the Alps. It was a glorious time for me there, in spite of working out in the cold, rain, snow, and slush. I loved ice skating outside and cross-country skiing, and the special friendships I had in Berchtesgaden. Later that year, I lived and worked briefly in the Swiss Alps. The Swiss German dialect was even more difficult! That was 50 years ago, and it changed my life. John, northern California

I have never been to Germany, but from this documentary section, I love the "we are who we are" motto of the Bavarians and the funny phrase of the Baden meal, "God cheater". One key note is the Franconians who refused to be called Bavarians. This shows that Germans are have a strong character, language and culture of being who they are and not blending into other people's culture

Hello Rachel,just to correct you without trying to be a" Klugscheisser",Semmelknödel are made from Semmel which is the bavarian word for Brötchen -bread rolls.Made from Bröthen from a few day before.Soaked in hot milk.Mixed with eggs herbs and seasoning.Either form a ball like a normal potatoe dumpling or a roll using cling film and the either steam or put in boiling water ,turn off heat and let simmer until they swim on top.If you cool down the roll you can then unwrap and slice it and fry with bacon in a pan.Or you put the mix them in a big ball and in a linen napkin and then cook.Then you have Serviettenknödel.And I know this because I`m a chef,just in case somebody is wondering.

As usual a great video to show a bit of southern Germany. I love how you always add that bit of historic contextualization regarding politics and war references. That helps people to sort of connect the dots around a bit better. I wanted to visit Rothenburg ob der Tauber, and I was pleasantly surprised when I went there last year. Nuremberg is also lovely. I am missing Heidelberg, and I am really looking forward visiting there. And regarding people, I think indeed people from Southern Germany are the most welcoming and happy ones there. I have been 4 times in that region and I always had a great time there.

As an Upper Swabian I capitalize the "upper", because the Swabian cliché does not apply to Upper Swabia. Württemberg consists actually of three parts: Old Württemberg, Hohenzollern (which was under Prussian rule 1850 - 1945) and Upper Swabia; Hohenzollern and Upper Swabia except Ulm, but including Tübingen and Reutlingen from Old Württemberg were in the French occupation zone after WW II and formed the state of Württemberg-Hohenzollern until 1952 (capital was Tübingen in Old Württemberg). Upper Swabia was before 1805 a patchwork consisting of Catholic Vorderösterreich (Fore Austria) and the territories of multiple Imperial Cities and Imperial Abbeys. The Imperial Cities were either Protestant or 'parity' - Catholics and Protestants on equal terms, each with their own mayor, who governed together. The other territories were mostly Catholic in contrast to Protestant-Pietist Württemberg, so the culture was more like in Baden (which was at that time also far smaller). Then came Napoleon and redistributed Upper Swabia, Fore Austria and Tyrol to his allies Baden, Wüttemberg and Bavaria (doubling their respective territories). There are still some cultural differences between Upper and Lower Swabia - Upper Swabians are (mostly) less workaholic and like to enjoy a more "baroque" life style.

I love this video as I love BY and BW. And Rachel is always great and worth watching! Reg. certain attitudes Bavaria is famous for such as "Mia san mia" - I think it's to be rather taken with a grain of salt. Most Bavarians have a good sense of humor and a sense of irony and are friendly. I also think Bavaria is not that conservative as often portrayed. True, most of its inhabitants are Catholic, but it's rather a liberal kind of Catholicism in many areas. My impression often is that Catholicism has to adapt to the Bavarian mentality (loving to celebrate etc...) , and not the other way round.

A big factor here is rural vs urban. Many of the big cities in Bavaria have a center-left (SPD) mayor, while of course the government of the state is center-right/right CSU. So, the state *is* verifiably conservative, while the urban centers are more liberal.

It is interesting, that from my perspective as somebody who grew up in the North, the Southern nations have many similarities, but from their perspective, they have so many differences. When I moved to Freiburg, it was really a cultural shock

Schloss Neuschwanstein, I've been there! Well, only once and for a very short time. We passed it in the winter darkness while tour skiing our way up. It was more or less down in the valley while we were going up and down the mountains on our telemark skis.

Favourite place is Heidelberg! Must visit for a day or two. Also, nice to have bumped into Rachel in Saarbrücken! Maybe there's a video coming along on Saarland? :P

"weil es hier guten Wein gibt" In general a very true statement. But quite ironic with the Tübingen backdrop.

I am going to be an Erasmus exchange student in Esslingen, and now I'm planning to visit every place in South in my spare time(My plans were about visiting Netherlands, France, Austria and Italy before, wasn't aware of Germany's touristic value).

Salüüüü Rachel, from Freiburg. Great video as usual!! Yes, the "Freiburg's" photo is from Colmar in France. "La petite Venice" is the name given to the course of the Lauch (the river in the photo). Smth to laugh: The Freiburg's Christmas market in 2021 was cancelled due to covid but the Christmas market in Colmar was open! Needless to say, almost half of Freiburg's population during these days was drinking Glühwein in Colmar 😂😂

Now this one really brought back memories as I have had many holidays in Konstanz and have visited Heidelberg a few times where I have friends. I have an aunt who lives in Stauffen near Freiburg. Last year I cycled from Donaueschingen to Passau across BW and Bayern. Previously I’ve cycled from Konstanz to Salzburg, visited Füssen and Schwangau a couple of times and have bern a frequent visitor to München. So a trip down memory lane though it’s a long time since I’ve been to Nürnberg so I must revisit it sometime. Bayern has at least one brewery in every town it seems and the quality is consistent though I have my favourites which are Augustiner, Andechs and Bayreuthe Helles. Baden-Württemberg is arguably less well travelled than Bayern by British tourists but it’s a great state and this year’s cycle trip took me from Heidelberg over the Schwäbische Alb to Konstanz via the Danube gorge and Signaringen. I can recommend so many places to visit in Germany. Keep these progammes coming… love the way you present them. 😀

I have fond memories of touring Bavaria with my then girlfriend and her sister back in the 80's, and asking her to marry me in a quaint little Garmisch-Partenkirchen hotel. Fun times! 🥰
