Mainberg Castle Christmas Party

Not to many people can say their work Christmas party was in a castle. This year my fellow teachers and I had our Christmas get-together at the Mainberg Castle. I didn't even know there was a castle so close to Schweinfurt. The castle is only about 10 minutes from my house. It was very cool. We got to go on a free tour and the history was very interesting. I didn't get many pictures, partly because it was so dark and you couldn't see much. When Kyle is around we will have to go back and check it out, it was very cool!
Here is the link to the castle webpage...http://www.schloss-mainberg.info/index.php?option=com_frontpage&Itemid=1. It is all in German, but you can see the outside of the castle.

This knight was right inside the front door of the castle.

Gail and myself. She teaches in the classroom right next to mine.

Apparently castles are expensive to heat. The bathroom was so cold! I had to stop at the fire place before going back to the party. I had goose-bumps the entire night!
