I learned that Ummerstadt is the smallest town in Thuringia and the second smallest in Germany. It dates back to the year 837. It is located close to Bad Colberg and Heldburg in the Hildburghausen region where we stayed most of the time during this trip.
We did not want to miss this little germ.

In Canada I had planned to have a typical Thuringian lunch in the local restaurant and I wrote to them. However, they never responded to my German written e-mail and for that reason and because we arrived a little bit late for lunch we skipped it.

It is our intention to return to Thuringia to complete more of our tasks. Hopefully this will be at a time when one of the events takes place in Ummerstadt. I am especially interested in the "Brauhausfest", a celebration with lots of beer. I certainly will need a designated driver after attending to it or an accommodation.
