Memories of Weyer

I spent three weeks in a health resort in Weyer, Upper Austria.

Here I made friends with two ladies, Edeltraud and Waltraut.

These are my memories:

Walking over the meadow in the evening to this little inn.

Drinking a glass of beer under the high chestnut tree.

Watching the horses in the meadow.

Then walking home again across the meadow with its many flowers and so many different grasses!

A place for meditation and yoga under the apple trees.

And sometimes: local music and dancing in the evening sun.

Weyer, good bye, it was so good to be here, for all of us!

A stroll through the small town of Weyer

The small community of Weyer was founded in the 12th century. According to a legend,

the name "Weyer" comes from a diligent beaver who drained the swamps of the river Enns and thus prepared the ground for the first buildings of the village.





The baroque centre of the city gives you an idea of the wealth it had gained from wood and iron industry.

This is the statute reminding of the legendary beaver.

No stroll through a town without some coffee and something sweet...

(husband and dog are satisfied)

We walk up the hill to the upper part of Weyer.

Here we enjoy a beautiful view over the little town.

We come to Weyer's remarkable church.

We stroll down again,

and, of course, we find some houses where we could imagine to live in, as usual...

and with a last glance over Weyer, we finish our little tour.

Weyer again

I stayed three weeks in May at a health resort in Weyer, Upper Austria.

There was beautiful landscape all around, green wooded hills and colourful summer meadows, and I had a lot of time to enjoy longsome strolls through the countryside.

I show you some impressions from my neighbourhood.

Every day I remember these beautiful days.

It comes not as a surprise that I was able to quit smoking in a peaceful rural environment as that...

Memories of the last three weeks in Weyer

High tension!
