Gord and Uncle Frank looking at the Donauschwabian
plaques on Ulm`s ancient walls.
The plaque depicting Rudolfsgnad`s origin up to its demise
in 1944 with the arrival of the Red Army and subsequent
imprisonment of the German inhabitants until 1948.
One of the original steps used by Germans to embark on boats via
the Danube River enabling emmigration to the Austro-HungarianEmpire.
