Thank you for the video! Growing up, I absolutely adored my Franconian grandmother! ❤ Her family originated from a tiny village in Ipsheim, Mittelfranken called "Kaubenheim". My grandmother had a very playful sense of humor, and she'd often mutter sassy quips in Fränkisch under her breath. I never knew what she was saying, but I suspect it was something very mischievous! 😂
I had the honor and pleasure of living in Bamberg in the mid 1960s. Given the Cold War situation and the nature of my work, I traveled to every village in Upper Franconia over and over again. I also traveled through the rest of the region extensively. You mentioned the number of breweries now, but that must be a quarter of what it was 60 years ago. They were everywhere. I spent a lot of time in Bavaria through the years, including several months recently near Starnberg. My wife is ethically a Balouch, but she was born and raised in Mombasa, Kenya. She loves Franconia wine. Go figure!!! We traveled through Franconia a couple of times in the last 10 years, and although I’m 76 I believe that the thought of being able to take another trip to Franconia keeps me alive. I love your channel. Exactly the right content and delivery. I wish you all the best.
I live in Brooklyn USA now... but I was born in Bad Kissingen, grew-up in Sömmersdorf/Kützberg & Schweinfurt (highschool in Würzburg) - - I miss my homeland, Beautiful Unterfranken!!!
The highest expression of enthusiasm for a Franconian man is 'Bassd sho' (that's fine). From a Franconian now living in the culinaric waste land of Baden (-Wuerttemberg).
Tolles Video!! Meine Verlobte kommt aus Unterfranken, und dieses Video war sehr informativ für mich. Also, please forgive my grammar, I am an American.
Und mei Franken is super beschrieben, immer wenn mich jemand frägt wo ich her komm, sag ich grundsätzlich Franken, nie Bayern 😂 ich sag immer die Bayern halten uns in Geiselhaft 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Great video! I do genealogy and have found that my earliest ancestors who immigrated to the US were ... you guessed, it, Franconians! I'm excited to find out all I can about the areas there were from.
My lastname is Franken and I was looking for the origin of my lastname. Now my wish is to be there to celebrate Franconian day at least once with my sister.
Germany was a separate bunch of Kingdoms. They were all separate states. Then in time of war they all came under the Kaiser. Beer, I thought Franconia was famous for the Franconian wine. Didn't realize Prince Albert was from Coberg.
Grüße aus Bamberg 👋 Actually heard some information I didn‘t even know, but I love Franken, especially Oberfranken and the dialect, really like it. Was ma auch noch oft sagen: Back mers. Oder net? xD
hey bitches, I'm a Merican, lol. actually, I care much about my cultural background, I've actually visited portions of my familial background... primarily through my dad's dad: (Bad Neustadt a.d. Saale / Hershfeld... Würzburg), and and my dad's mom... (Graz, Osterreich)... but obviously it goes deeper than our parents. Regardless, whereas once I somewhat understood that one of my primary cultural sources was Bavaria, I now default to Lower Franconia.
I think many prominent United States Jews were from Franconia. I would like to know more about Franconian Jews in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Also, what is Franconia's connection to France? And to Frankfurt am Main?
My ancestry is represented by Upper and Middle Franconian. I could interpret my Grandmothers Franconian German better than regular German. Do not be fooled into believing this region is pure a Germanic ancestry. a very large Slavic migration occurred in the 1200-1300s settled in the Franconia region in great masse. You can still see it in Franconian with the dark hair and dark eyes. Some of my aunts in-laws had very dark traits that more probably could be mistaken for Magyar than Franconian.
Thank you for the video!

Just moved to Nuremberg and found your video as a great introduction. Thanks a lot!!
Welcome to Franconia! I hope you have a great time here!
My Franconian ancestors are from Ansbach/Wurzburg/ and Bayreuth enjoyed this information very much
Das biedere Kaff namens Fürth😂😂😂wurde zurecht vergessen😂😂😂
Ich war geboren in Nürnberg. Ich habe keine deutschen Vorfahren, aber ich habe das Gefühl, ein fränkisches Herz zu haben ❤️🤍
Fascinating stuff! Love videos like this 😊

I may be a Texan now, but I'm happy to say that my hometown is Großgressingen by Ebrach.
Mine family originates from more the Zettmannsdorf area on grandmothers side.

Gott sei dank ❤
Hab mal in Ebrach 9 Monate Urlaub verbracht.

My family is from Mellrichstadt, Lower Franconia. This was a good watch.

Franconia actually has the Most breweries per Capita in the entire world and they are the best by far

I'm glad I could be of help and clarify that a little! ;-)
🇵🇹👍🏻Franken Provinz🇩🇪
I just wanna point out that Fürth just took over Würzburg as the second biggest franconian city.
I know. I learned about that after I had made the video. Well... what can I say... S. happens.
@@FrankenHerzEuropas Yeah. Greetings from a guy from Fürth (actually I grew up in Cadolzburg) who lives in Copenhagen now.
I wish BBC presenters spoke English as well as you do.
That color is peach 😉😃

You're polish right?
@@amadiohastruck4331 No but I have a very old book in Old German that details the influx of a new era of population in the region.
0:10 what's the name of the Movie is that Lord of Rings ?
Yes! Part III, The Return Of The King.
@@FrankenHerzEuropas Danke
Wer einen Franken Bayer nennt, er um sein Leben rennt. 😉
Hallo.
Was ist der Unterschied zur ersten Version dieses Videos ?
Sind Kleinigkeiten gewesen. Grammatikfehler, und ein paar Einspieler, die ich geändert hab'. Wirklich nicht viel...
born in schweinfurt, miss home
Everything I think of as typically German is really Franconian.
5:00 Never been to Germany, never even left North America and i only know english. However i self identify as a Franconian.
Julius Streicher was also from Franconia
No. He was Swabian. He was born in Augsburg, grew up and studied there. He later came to Nuremberg as a teacher. Unfortunately... 😕
@@FrankenHerzEuropas oh, ok. Thanks for the reply!
My wife is Franconian (Würzburg), there for I am by marriage 😂
Bavaria>franconia
