Camping in Bayreuth

The Bayreuth Festival is, I hasten to note, very RV-friendly
(note we are at the intersection of Tristan Strasse and
Siegfried Wagner Allee (Wagner's son and director of the
Festival for many years, after Cosima's death))





However, we stayed just outside of town at the--I swear I
am not making this up--Lohengrin Therme, one of the
many mineral hot springs for which the area is notable.
It has a stellplatz, a place for RVs to park, free of charge.
Friday night, after my day in Bayreuth, Vicki and I took
the waters, 4 hours of alternating soaking and reading, and
a break for Apfelsatz. Surprisingly, the water was not very
hot, but it was a pleasant diversion. And we love the
stellplatzes.
