    No, now you are actually moving in the wrong direction. I think you have earned your rep though, but if you someone else wants to guess some more or try to find the place on a map, I don't reveal the answer.

    Ok, Isle of Mainau in the Bodensee? There are growing some subtropical plants on Mainau.

    Come on, Morty, I would have given you the win if it was within Bodensee that you already guessed.

    It is Zugersee, a hundred kilometers by road from Bodensee.

    Edit: I guess there was no point in guessing all the lakes one by one in that area.

    Although it is Germany.

    The Grid a masterpiece of mine, isn't it? The Met will buy it as Modern Art after this round.

    I thought of the Kehl bridge at first, but the design didn't fit. It's the monument-mausoleum of general Hoche, who died at Weissenthurm. The bridge in the background is the Raiffesenbrücke, which connects Neuwied with the left bank of the Rhine.

    Its the Mausoleum and Monument of General Hoche, who died in Wetzlar September 1797, but was buried, where he crossed the Rhine to beat the Austrians in the Battle of Neuwied.

    Thanks!

    I initially thought of posting something unique, but then tradition also has its value. Yet another castle it is!

    That's right! A very impressive feat of architecture, it was demolished by the usual suspect, Mélac. The castle lies next to Germany, the border is just a few meters to the north.

    I like it, the weather was always a good mix out of rainy, sunny, stormy. But we were there mostly late spring, late summer, early autumn. And never too overcrowded.

    No one? The town gives its name to something I assume most of you have consumed.
