I spotted yesterday’s rather eye-catching windows as we were walking back to the car park just beyond the old town area of Strasbourg. It seemed an appropriate place to visit as Britain embarks on its foolhardy plan to Take Back Control outside Europe. Oh to be in England, now that Johnson’s here …
I’ve given you some tough images to identify. Here, surely you can get the country right? And this town is a tourist destination, so maybe that too.

Andrew of Have Bag, Will Travel invited me to join him and other bloggers to post one favourite travel picture a day for ten days without explanation, then each day, nominate someone new to join in on the same terms. It’s too near Christmas to name someone specific. I’m just saying to all of you – if you’d like to join in, please do. It’s quite good fun, and all I ask you to do is link back to this post so I know that you’ve posted a photo.
Picture perfect! 🙂

Now that I can confirm I have never been to Strasbourg or any other location in its region, my streak may be on the line – but you are giving us leeway by having us ID the country. I’ll go with Germany.

Timber frame houses and gray skies. Northern Europe? Haven’t paid attention to Dutch and Danish churches, but Germany does have lots of slate on the roofs, so I bet do Belgian and Dutch. “Eckerts” and “Klosterbrau” probably rule out the Netherlands (also you already had a photo from there). Since Germany is taken, let me jump to Belgium. Bruges?

Germany has not previously been taken …

Klosterbrau gives the game away…Germany…and, I think, Passau

From the language and the buildings I’m going with Germany, possibly Austria, but since you were in Strasbourg yesterday, then a place along the French / German border.

Not a border town. You’ll have to choose.

Mmm, the zwiebelturm and text suggests Germany possibly, and the wooden building and your hint of tourist destination makes me take a wild guess at Rottenburg am Neckar.

I lived in a small Colorado town called Strasburg…. Spelled different. It was a small farming town. Your photo is real pretty again. 😀

Ah, Strasbourg in France has had a busy history, passing between Germany and France 4 times! So small farming town is a very different beast!

I know this place but I’ve never been there. A friend of mine used to go there when we lived in Germany. The restaurant is well known for its location with water flowing wherever you look and the town is built on 7 hills!
