HANDBOOK FOR TRAVELLERS BY K BAEDEKER. With 15 Maps and 27 Plans. SIXTH EDITION, REVISED AND AUGMENTED. LEIPSIC: KARL BAEDEKER. LONDON: DULAU AND CO. 37 SOHO SQUARE, W. 1877. The right of translation is reserved. "Go, little book, God send thee good passage, \nd specially let this be thy prayere Unto them all that thee will read or hear, Where thou art wrong, after their help to call, Thee to correct in any part or all." Chaccek. PREFACE. Ihe chief object ofthis Handbook, which corresponds with the sixteenth German edition, is to supply the tra- veller with such information as to render him as nearly as possible independent of hotel-keepers, commis- sionnaires, and guides, and thus to enable him the more thoroughly to enjoy and appreciate the objects of interest he meets with on his tour. The Handbook is based almost entirely upon the per- sonal experience of the Editor, and the country described has been repeatedly explored by him with a view to pro- cure the latest possible information but as trifling er- ; , rors and omissions are inevitable, and as the various places and arrangements mentioned are subject to con- stant change he will greatly value any communications , with which he may be favoured by travellers, if the re- sult of their own observation. The information already received, which he gratefully acknowledges, has in many cases proved most serviceable. The Maps and Plans, on which the most anxious care has been bestowed, will be of essential service to the traveller, and enable him at a glance to ascertain his bearings and select the best routes. Time Tables. Information as to the departure oftrains, steamboats, and diligences is seldom to be relied upon unless obtained from local sources. If Bradshaw is mis- trusted, 'Hendschels Telegraph, published at Frankfort on the Main, and issued monthly during the summer season, or the 'Coursbncli published at Berlin, and issued , eight times a year, will be*found useful. = Heights are=given in English fe=et (1 Engl. ft. 0,3048 metre 0,938 Parisian ft. 0,971 Prussian ft.), Distances in English miles (except for mounlain ex- cursions, in which case the time they occupy is more satis- factory), and the Populations from data furnished by the latest census. Hotels. The Editor has endeavoured to enumerate both the first-class hotels and those of more modest pre- tensions which may be safely selected by the 'voyageur en garcon', with little sacrifice of comfort and considerable saving of expenditure. The average charges quoted have either been tested by the Editor himself or have been , gathered from the numberless bills with which he has been furnished from various quarters. Hotel charges as , well as carriage fares and fees to guides, generally have a strong upward tendency but these items, given ap- ; proximately, will at least enable the traveller to form a fair estimate of his probable expenditure. Asterisks are used as marks of commendation. •CONTENTS. Page. I. Language xiii II. Money xiii III. Passports xiv IV. Railways, etc. xiv V. Excursions on Foot xv VI. Hotels xvi Route. 1. Berlin 1 a.
