I spent 2 days in Butzbach 2 weeks ago...what a wonderful old city to visit! I took many photos including the ones from the "Evangelical" (As opposed to Catholic" church that was there before even before the time of our recorded ancestors, and of the ROman Wall. MAde 2 visits to the museum in Butzbach, and discovered that any of us who came from there can count Celtic, Roman and German amoung our heritage! THere was a statue of a Roman soldier that looked so much like my Dad I Felt like Giving him a daughterly kiss!

They ahve an amazing collection of miniature shoes representing the whole span of known life in the area, from Celtic shoes on to modern day.

IF anyone would like jpg photos of Butzbach I Can e-mail them to you.

I was not able to do any research but just wanted to walk where the ancestors had walked and see what they had seen, which is quite possible with the wonderful midevil houses still there in the heart of the town.
