Schtri, schtra, schtro – de Summerdag is do
Technically these pictures were not taken in summer. But “summer’s day” is celebrated each year on Laetare Sunday, i.e. three weeks before Easter. After a spring parade through town a large snowman is burnt to represent the end of winter.

Something this old Isetta from 1950s didn’t need. It was billed as a motor roller mobile and you didn’t need a car driving license for it. Even the police used Isettas. And it is a BWM, essentially.

The First Car
This is the Benz-Haus, the house where Carl Benz lived in Ladenburg once his company had become successful. He built was is considered the first workable automobile in 1886.
From this came the Mercedes Benz car factory which is known worldwide by the three pointed star.
