I found this wonderful bubblegum machine near Moosham. Another proof for the theory that by travelling via the "Autobahns" you won´t see anything at all.

Vilshofen is located at the confluence of the Vils river with the Danube. The settlement belonged to the bishopric of Passau. The Count of Ortenburg held Vilshofen as a fief. Already in 1220, a bridge existed ver the Vils. After a dispute with the House of Ortenburg Duke Otto II of Bavaria took possession of the city in 1241. Emperor Ludwig of Bavaria confirmed the town charter in 1345. In 1572, Duke Wilhelm V of Bavaria approved the construction of a salt depot, which in the same year resulted in the construction of the first Danube bridge and the establishment of a wheat beer brewery. The “Goldene Steig” salt trade route from Vilshofen to Bohemia and Prague started here. In 1794 a fire destroyed almost the entire city, only a few houses in the town square remained unscathed. Most of today´s buildings date to the reconstruction at that time. I found this large bubblegum-machine on the Stadtplatz, the shopping street in Vilshofen. What freedom of choice!

Traunreut is a very young town. In 1938 an ordnance factory was built on the outskirts of the village of St. Georgen, at the present location of Traunreut. After World War II, with the factory closed, ethnic German expellees from their settlements in Central and Eastern Europe settled in the abandoned grounds. The municipality of Traunreut was founded in 1950 and in 1960 Traunreut became a town. A very friendly coexistance.

Landgasthof Zenz is located in the hamlet of Sondermoning, part of Nussdorf. For long it was probably the centre of social life as the inn had the only larger hall in the municipality. But Landgasthof Zenz closed down in May 2020. Only the bubblegum machines are in full service.
