In
Hann.
I
lived
in
Münden
for
a
few
years
as
a
child.
Reason
enough
to
come
back
as
a
tourist,
because
it
is
a
beautiful
little
half-timbered
town
with
over
700
half-timbered
houses.
Hann.
Münden
is
suitable
as
a
day
tour
or
–
as
we
did
–
in
conjunction
with
Kassel
and
the
Upper
Weser
for
a
long
weekend
over
Ascension
Day
2022.
Preparation
is
quite
easy,
the
city's
website
is
clear
and
well
structured,
and
the
tips
are
helpful.
We
booked
one
of
the
public
tours
(70
minutes
for
€6.50
per
person)
and
arrived
by
car.
The
tour
itself
was
carried
out
very
ambitiously
by
our
lady
and
we
noticed
that
she
likes
the
city.
The
catch:
the
tour
was
only
500
m
long
and
a
lot
was
explained
about
the
importance
of
water
in
the
city
and
some
of
the
houses.
There
was
a
tip
for
the
way
up
to
the
Tillyschanze,
but
that
was
it.
What
was
noticeable:
there
is
a
lot
of
vacancy
in
the
city
and
an
obvious
lack
of
money.
This
wasn't
discussed,
but
you
could
see
it
with
the
naked
eye.
Apparently
the
city
also
made
wrong
decisions
when
selling
some
houses
to
a
so-called
"investor"
who
was
just
waiting
for
the
property
to
increase
in
value.
We
know
this:
when
administrations
try
to
be
economically
successful,
nothing
good
rarely
comes
of
it.
And
it
was
also
clear
that
a
wrong
decision
was
made
during
the
Expo2000
in
Hanover.
The
funds
allocated
there
were
invested
-
certainly
with
good
intentions
-
in
the
visualization
of
the
water.
After
all,
water
once
helped
the
city
prosper.
The
ideas
were
certainly
good,
the
only
catch
is
that
water
is
not
so
easy
to
make
visible
and
the
three
large
water
installations
are
very
difficult
to
maintain.
In
addition,
the
artistic
paving
stones
are
easy
to
miss
and
cannot
be
found
on
the
tourist
information
website.
It
was
very
unfortunate
to
see
how
this
city
was
languishing
and
also
to
see
that
it
lacked
either
the
strength
or
the
capital
to
revive
the
offer.
Why,
for
example,
does
Hann.
Don't
we
consistently
focus
on
water
as
a
topic?
With
a
thematic
focus
in
spring
involving
the
rivers,
with
"water
games"
in
the
summer,
sporty
and
playful,
and
a
wine
festival
in
autumn
(motto:
"water
to
wine"?).
There
is
a
Christmas
market
anyway.
Of
course,
you
have
to
invest,
ideally
with
funding
from
the
federal
government
or
the
EU
–
just
not
from
other
“investors”!
–
but
it’s
definitely
worth
it.
Or
you
can
just
continue
to
watch
the
decline.
Would
be
a
pity.
