Saturday, 7 March 2026 AGM with accompanying programme ‘The Zeppelin Museum in Friedrichshafen’

In beautiful but unfortunately hazy weather, the participants met in Romanshorn for a boat trip to Friedrichshafen, where we were able to take part in an interesting guided tour of the Zeppelin Museum. We were impressed by the incredible dimensions of these filigree airships.
After a hearty and very tasty lunch, the AGM took place in a bright meeting room with a great view of Lake Constance. Afterwards, many headed home, while some visited the museum again to take a closer look at other exhibits.
