Sights

The German Timber-Frame Road, which covers Germany from north to south, joins unique landscapes, historic sites and carefully restored monuments. Health resorts and festival locations alternate with nature parks and romantic nooks. Cider and Bock beer were invented here and hardly any other tourist route can offer such a variety of German culinary delights.


Germany's northernmost vineyard, the biggest Christmas candle in the world and Germany's only Ivory Museum are all located on this historical trail. There are many events, festivals and markets throughout the year, which can be explored by car, bicycle, train, or motor-home.

Fellinis TV commercial

Fellinis Fantastic TV Commercials

In 1984, when he was 64 years old, Fellini agreed to make a miniature film featuring Campari, the famous Italian appiritif. The result, Oh, che bel paesaggio! (Oh, what a beautiful landscape!), shown above, features a man and a woman seated across from one another on a long-distance train. The man (played by Victor Poletti) smiles, but the woman (Silvia Dionisio) averts her eyes, staring sullenly out the window and picking up a remote control to switch the scenery. She grows increasingly exasperated as a sequence of desert and medieval landscapes pass by. Still smiling, the man takes the remote control, clicks it, and the beautiful Campo di Miracoli (Field of Miracles) of Pisa appears in the window, embellished by a towering bottle of Campari.
