Some Scenes of Erlangen

Here are some videos I have gathered of Erlangen, Germany. It was here that I spent most of my Army service. In 2005, I published an English-language history of Erlangen (Erlangen-An American's History of a German Town).




The below promo (in German)  is narrated by my friend Peter Gertenbach, the spokesman for the Lord Mayor's office.



Below is a scene from the 2012 Bergkirchweih (beer fest) A performance of Lili Marleen




In the video below, a former US Army soldier stationed in Erlangen takes us on a tour of the former Ferris Barracks, now known as Roethelheimbad.

The below clip (in German) pays tribute to the Huguenot heritage of Erlangen.
