Bridge over the river Lauch in Colmar, Haut Rhin (France)


It is best to steer clear of the rue des Clefs at certain hours of the night. The street, by day a bustling shopping area  at nightfall becomes the haunt of a terrifying calf, the famous Colmar Nachtkalb. No one knows exactly how long he has been playing his evil tricks, lowing mightily from his hiding place and sometimes charging poor animals that have wandered away from the safety of their homes or tourists staggering out of the local wistubs, their bellies full of the local wine.
