Bavaria boasts outstanding artistic heritage, reflecting the styles that followed on from each other from the Renaissance through to the 19th century.

François first sets out in the footsteps of the Russian Vassily Kandinsky, who drew his inspiration from the colours and landscapes of the region, and adopted the local technique of painting on glass. He then takes a stab at yodelling, a way of singing that is close to Tyrolean singing, admires the paintings of the Lüft, and discovers the tradition of violin-making in Mittenwald, before finding out how to make Lederhosen, the ideal trousers for travelling through Bavaria on a Mobylette!
