(Note, this is a post about Fasnet in Villingen Schwenningen\u00a0only. I went from town to town in the Black Forest area in Germany to experience Fasnet first hand – if you’ve landed on this article, you should start\u00a0HERE<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Villengen and Shwenningen<\/a> are two towns that compliment each other.\u00a0Formerly part of Baden<\/a>, Villingen is full of history and stories. Where today you\u2019ll find a bike store, for instance, there used to be a public bathhouse. If you fancy a break from all that wandering and exploring, the multitude of drinking fountains are the ideal place to stop off. They would certainly have a lot to say if they could speak! In years gone by, fountains were the perfect meeting places for people wanting to catch up on the latest gossip!<\/span><\/p>\n Shwenningen used to be one of the world\u2019s largest clock-making towns – and harmoniously combines both tradition and progress, as illustrated by the symbiosis of magnificent Wilhelmian style villas and modern builds.<\/span><\/p>\n
