Joseph Rosendo’s Travelscope
Germany's Winter Carnival
Season 4
Episode 406
Joseph heads to the German state of Baden-Wüerttemberg for Fasnacht. Each town may call it by a different name, but they all agree it’s a non-stop party that celebrates local culture and chases away the winter blues. From Konstanz to the Black Forest villages of Villingen, Oberndorf, Gengenbach, Elzach and Rottweil, Joseph uncovers the festival’s history and rejoices in the controlled chaos!
