Food and drink in Bundesarchiv Freiburg?

[John Manrho]

As far as I remember it is not possible to buy anything to eat or drink. At the same time it is 3 years ago since I've been there....

cheers,

John.

you can buy sodas in the archive, but no food. There is a sandwich-shop a bit down the road, but their food is bloody awful. Get something in town and store it in your locker.

Better yet, breakfast in a German hotel includes things like ham, sausage, cheese and bread rolls that us English would consider a light lunch - smuggle some of that out from the breakfast room and take it with you. You already paid for it.

Opposite the Bundesarchiv, 100 feet down the road there's a restaurant. The food is, IMHO, decent, and plenty, I recommend the salat-plate. The girls from the Archive usually eat there ( say Hi to Frau Brabant and Frau Waibel from me!). The problem is, if you bring food, you can't eat nor drink in the Lesesaal.

I agree with Hans, the restaurant ca 100 m down the road was ok when I ate there. Obviously it's a good idea to bring some drink and snack if one gets hungry.

I'll be in the archive between 26-30 June if anyone else from TOCH is there and wants to grab a beer in the evening.

Thanks guys!

Now the very important aspect of food and drink is covered, any tips on research if you are looking for a Kampfgeschwader (I./KG66 in my case) would also be very welcome

Please note that I already have the digital findbücher found on the site of SES. I'm more thinking of a kind of checklist/roadmap of things which you shouldn't forget to do while researching a typical unit.

Thanks again,

Marcel
