Gauverband Announcement

Here's a link to a wonderful video (5 minutes) about the newly opened Trachtenmuseum in Holzhausen. The museum was completed and opened in early September. Abendschau - Der Süden: Das neue Trachtenkulturmuseum | ARD Mediathek  Sounds like many of us will be planning a visit there on our next trip to Bayern!
