We rode the train to Frankenstein today.
Frankenstein Castle in the background. The groundskeeper’s chapel in the foreground.
Frankenstein Castle has a nice pair of knockers.
There’s an electric fence to electrocute you, and I presume, put you out of your misery before you hit the bottom in case you slip off the narrow trail to the castle and fall down the very steep slope.

If you’ve ever wondered what happened to Herbie, The Love Bug, he retired in Frankenstein.

Dr. Frank-N-Furter’s hometown? 🤔 🕶
Ha ha, David, good one!
(and where the Love Bug went
to die … apparently 😥 🕶)
Frankenweenie, my man, Frankenweenie.
The original movie Herbie or one of its many imitators?
Yes, there’s been a Herbie’s epidemic. It’s all Walt Disney’s fault.
That’s what you get for loving cars, especially adorable bugs. Stupid Walt Disney.
😁
I only saw the original movie.
I don’t think I saw any of them, now that I think of it.
This is a well known scene from Herbie Rides Again (1974): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eHFamApISCs
I don’t think I missed much!
I dodn’t believe you did.
😁
As I just replied to David. Spell check tried to put Herbie in Frankenweenie.
Your spell check needs to be checked for kinks . . of the kinky variety.
Maybe it was think about Lola. La la la la Lola.

Transexual Tranylvania, that is.
What you do on your Euro holiday
is strictly your business, Timothy 😎
I’m photographing a lot of Great Tits.
Being back lots of happy mammaries.
Fine feathered friends to remember.
😆
Funny, because spell check tried to put Herbie in Frankenweenie! I was like, “Really?” AI would have had Frank-N-Furter pounding schnitzel if I had brought him up. I was thinking more along the lines of Young Frankenstein. Thanks, David.
Young Frankenstein …
a Mel Brooks classic 👌😎
(Don’t ever go to 🤔 🕶
Doctor Frank-N-Furter
with a case of Herbie’s
that dreaded love bug 🚫)
Hahaha! Absolutely not. He might ask you to stay for the night so he can have a bite and show you his latest obsession. Then he’ll send you to his satanic mechanic to take you for a ride and exorcise your Herbies.

Suspended and suspenseful!
I’m intrigued by the castle ruins!
They are intriguing. Thanks, liz.
You’re welcome, Tim.
What wonderful images,Tim. Thank you for the wonderful tour!
You are welcome, Dale.
Great! Where exactly is it?
It’s east of Ramstein in southern Germany. Thanks, Geoff.
if you want to find it in a map, search Frankenstein (Pfalz); there are multiple Frankensteins in Germany 😂
Great photos, Tim!! Wonderful memories!
Thanks, Rebecca.
Somebody knows their Young Frankenstein movie ha. You now have TWO birds on me Tim! I love the Bad Bunny.
I love Young Frankenstein. I added the doors to the castle for the knockers joke. I was going to title Wednesday’s post “Germany has Great Tits,” but only you and mabe Brad would have appreciated the perversion in that title. Did you see the different birds Merlin picked up on that post?
I did not see the Merlin list, did I miss it or was it in a different post?
You missed the post: https://wp.me/p1yQyy-dEe
Lol, loved the joke. Must say this is an interesting place. I would never visit because I’d be drawn to walk across these beams so… I won’t give the city Shelley credits for getting the idea of a certain figure here, a shout out….
I’m happy you liked the joke. A woman has to know her limits! You don’t want fo fall (literally) into temptation. Thanks, Shey.
A post to get us all chuckling! Smut is always fun.
I’m sure Frankensmut was all the rage back in the day. On the lines for bird smut, I’ve been seeing a lot of Great Tits on my walks with Freyja over the past few days. Thanks, Couriers.
Love these images, so much to see!
Thanks, Tiffany.
The castle looks a bit creepy inside but beautiful outside.Herbie and Frankenstein- two legends!☺️
I think it would be cool to see Frankenstein
It’s a cool castle. We were suprised by Herbie.
That is an impressive castle! If walls could talk, what a tale they could tell.
Lots of stories to tell. Thanks, Lavinia.
Well, that was certainly interesting.
Thnks, Gigi.
😊
I do remember Herbie. What fun to see a Herbie in Frankenstein. Creepy castle 😱
Castle tend to be creepy. The original Love Bug was fun.
Nice bit of history with photos. I bet the ruins are older than our country is.
Over 600 years older. Thanks, Brad.
