Black Forest II - Vogtsbauernhof - Outdoor Museum


The most liked symbol of the Black Forest is probably the "Bollenhut", the hat with the big, fluffy, round balls on top. Young, single girls wear the hat in red, married women wear it in black. Little girls and older ladies have to settle for a plain black cap. No big, funny hat for them.
On our trip Gutach, we got to talk to some Black Forest girls...

...we ate some Black Forest Cake...

...we tried bread with herbs, baked in stone ovens...



...with its old, old houses...

...interior from times long past...










...and crafted a Black Forest doll ourselves...
