Thanks for the info! I was told on a Munich tour once that Hitler gutted the finances and resources of Bavaria for WWII, then after the war ended, what was left went toward reparations. They claimed that Bavaria basically footed the bill for most of Germany, during and after the war, leaving them broke and dependent.
I guess my tour guide didn’t know what he was talking about.
Yeah I expected something like that. In my experience Tour guides are really great at telling a story and entertain us, that’s their job. But how true those stories are… =)
