Travel Guide
Bad Muenstereifel
Bad Münstereifel is a historical spa town in the district of Euskirchen, Germany, with about 17,000 inhabitants, situated in the far south of the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia
“ I remember my hometown as a place with a powerful sense of community which was sometimes comforting and sometimes stifling. The passing of seasons was marked by festivals that the whole town attended.”
This is an exploration of the history of the village of Bad Munstereifel, through folk tales and gossip.
As admits, the small towns in Germany have raised gossip to an art form. Three’s many things to gossip about as well. When children go missing, parents warn them to stay inside and the fear is that someone they know might be responsible.
In real life, Bad Muenstereifel is a nice place and great for a wander!
