The tin figure fair in Kulmbach, Germany, is the largest in the world of its kind. Here are some picures from the event.
Tin figure enthusiasts gather and have a good time her. The sourrounding environment, tasty food and good beer gives it all an edge of extreme sense of wellbeing. I bring a toast to all friends and participants and also to the organizers of this marvellous event!
This was my 8th visit, but the 19th times here for my friend and co-owner of this homepage, Jan Sennebo, will be hard to match.
