The story

Story · Fossa Carolina

You're standing at the Fossa Carolina, in Graben, a part of Treuchtlingen. Look at the water in front of you. It could pass for an ordinary pond or ditch, but it's a piece of a canal more than twelve hundred years old. In German it's called the Karlsgraben, after Charlemagne.
