Baden-Württemberg

Landtag of Baden-Württemberg

In 1987 I rode by car with a business associate from Paris, FR to Baden Baden, Baden-Württemberg, DE via Strasbourg, FR. We drove through Kehl, Ortenaukreis, BW, DE and also parts of Rastatt, BW, DE. These are 2 of the 35 districts in BW, DE.

My business associate wanted to by a cuckoo clock from the Black Forest. I remember seeing a Kartoffel soup on the menu at a restaurant there and trying to remember what that was from my high school German. Later I refreshed my memory that it was Potato soup.

"A campaign sticker, translated, 'We can [do] anything. Except [speak] Standard German.' This is an allusion to Baden-Württemberg being one of the principal centres for innovation in Germany and having many inhabitants with distinctive dialects."
