The 12th shows the Frauenkirche (woman's church) in the background, and I believe the 14th is of the Marienplatz where the famous glockenspiel is located.





Nice collection and memories of your grandfather. Thank you for posting.

Yeah the 15th picture just below the church picture in the town of Munich is the Salsberg Salt mine in Berchtesgaden. I think I got that all spelled correct. I can go to google earth and and almost find that exact location thats still there today. I can also find the bridge that they are standing on with the stream behind them as well. It is just outside of Berchtesgaden. Pretty cool to be able to use google eart to locate that exact spot. Br kinda cool to go there and get my picture taken on that same bridge at the same angle. Just to see how much has changed in the scenery.
