EXCHANGE 2023-24 / Friday 3rd Nov., DAY TRIP TO MARBURG

The second day trip was on Friday to the university town of Marburg. We all toured the town and students also had tasks to do: find Spanish speakers and interview them and references of the Grimm Brother's stories, as they had both lived in the town while attending its university.

More info on the Brothers Grim here. (Famous for stories such as "Cinderella", "The Frog Prince", "Snow White", "Hansel and Gretel" and many others...) At the end of this post you can see some of the references to their stories around the town*.

We all went up the around 400 stairs to the impressive castle that dominates the town.
