Visit To Kaiserslautern Germany In Search of my Childhood Home

[hsl3032]

TheOmagrace1 - the only thing I regret not seeing on my visit was Hohnecken Castle...ran out of time. But I remember the story I was told when I was little saying there was a woman who had to throw her baby into the river and if you go up there at night, you could hear her saying "Where's my baby...Where's my baby?!!"

You are heading in the direction of Hohenecken. No, the other side is not dangerous, in fact it is more of the same... lovely trails and nature and the castle ruins. There are small foot paths cutting across the tracks but you have to look for them. you are crawling all over my jogging trails LOL.

I was stationed in K-town in 1961 to 1964. Vogelweh was the main area of dependent housing and, at one time, was the largest US community outside of the US. It had a very large PX also.

Lol,he never heard of Vogelweh.I was stationed at Kapaun Air Station and Ramstein air base in 87-89 as part of the 608 APS.Good times.

Ramstein is part of K-Town !!!!

[TheOmagrace1]

@1609Richie Ramstein is not really a part of Kaiserslautern. It is another town in the same "county". Remember the signs saying Kreis Kaiserslautern? Kreis is roughly equivalent to our county. Hohenecken, Vogelweh, Siegelbach, and such are suburbs or Stadtteilen of Kaiserslautern.
