If you?re going to Wetzlar, be sure to save a few hours to visit Schloss
Braunfels, just a few klicks west.  I found it accidentally after a wrong
turn out of Solms after a factory visit.  I lived in Wetzlar a couple years
but I was a self absorbed teenager at the time, and never knew about it.
Great foto fodder.

Sonny.
