Design model

Jury makes Brunswick a design model for Germany

There is an urbanistic contest on an experimental project for better living. Out of 140 competitors Brunswick won! The experiences made here are to be overtaken by other towns in the future.

It´s good to live in a town where you can be proud of.

Hehe. This article (german only) suggests that Christoph Columbus would never have reached America without the Brunswick Mumme. There is no counterevidence he didn´t have heaps of it on his trip, like many other seafaring men had. It could be possible - it´s documentarily mentioned first in 1390. The Mumme was exported to the Carribean as well. This beer had a very high nutritional value and it was durable over a long time.

Now we even get a 1. Brunswick Mumme Mile.
