Wonderful country. Go there every year and never been anywhere not worth a visit. Would also recommend Nuremberg for a day trip. Rothenberg is a bit of a hike from Munich.

I was in a pub in Berlin- Kreuzberg about two years ago when I first heard of it and all the German lads laughed when I said I'd been to Bielefeld. I told them there was a large British garrison there in the 80s when I used to drink there regularly. That's when I was told it doesn't exist. It seems Angela Merkel has also questioned its existence.
The story goes that the city of Bielefeld (population of 323,076 as of 2011[1]) in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia does not actually exist. Rather, its existence is merely propagated by an entity known only as THEM (SIE in German), which has conspired with authorities to create the illusion of the city’s existence.
The theory posits three questions:
Do you know anybody from Bielefeld?
Have you ever been to Bielefeld?
Do you know anybody who has ever been to Bielefeld?
A majority are expected to answer 'no' to all three queries. Anybody claiming knowledge is said to be part of the conspiracy or being deceived themselves.

Thanks Ruhr. From the photos I've seen it looks no worse than any of the other medium sized cities in north Rhine.
Is there a German equivalent of Nuneaton or Mansfield ?
