The day of German Unity

s is an old S in old high-german font. Because I have that feeling you will have problems reading old german ^^;; Barely anyone in germany can read old german, which I think is a pity. -.-

Today is the day of german unity. 3^rd October is our national holiday. Although it is not celebrated so much like for example 4^th july, germans still remember this day as day of unity among whole germany. The inner german wall in Berlin, thus the seperation of germany into West and East, dissolved on the 9.November 1989 with the Fall of the Berlin Wall. The 3^rd October was not the real reunification date, it might be the reason why germans don not like to celebrate that day much, but because many things, especially bad things like the November Progrom Night happened in November, the national was set by officials on the 3^rd October.

Well my Papa says that our national holiday should be in june, because the New States of germany signed the declaretion of accession in june 1990.

As for our plannings for this day:

Me and my father will visit the Hohenloher Freilandmuseum. It is something like Old Kentucky Home. You can walk around and make a travel back in time. You can see how people in the region lived their lifes in the past. Many old restored houses, history and even some showmen and -women who are dressed like the people in the past.
