Last Saturday, Charlie was taken to Ladenburg, a small town between Heidelberg and Mannheim, and known for good quality asparagus.
Seit der Landesgartenschau vor einigen Jahren gibt es hier einen netten Park.
They had the state garden exhibition some years ago, and a nice park remained from that event.
Blick auf den Neckar / View over the river Neckar
Aber was ist das für ein interessantes Gebäude, mitten im Park?
But what's this interesting building in the middle of the park?
Das sieht aus wie eine Burgruine, nur ist es dafür ein bisschen zu klein.
Looks like a ruined castle, only slightly on the small side.
Ich bewache die Burg...
Das ist keine Burg, Charlie, das ist die ehemalige Garage von Carl Benz - oder was davon übrig ist.
Watcher of the castle...
That's not a castle, Charlie, it's Carl Benz's garage - or what is left of it.
Mist, sie ist zu!
Es dürften sowieso keine Autos mehr drin sein.
Drat, it's closed!
There are no more cars inside, I believe.
That is a very fancy looking garage, isn't it? But then if you are part of the Mercedes Benz family, I guess you can afford to have a very fancy garage. I like that it looks like a castle, it's the prefect little castle to live in :)

I was very surprised when I saw it the first time to learn it was a garage. I believe the folks in Ladenburg are very proud that Carl Benz lived there!
