U17 in Hilsbach

What an incredible reception in Hilsbach - our first stop of the day in the Sinsheim district! Hundreds of people accompanied the transport from Ittlingen to Hilsbach at the roadside - and with an impressive presence. U17 was duly welcomed with banners, cheers and freshly grilled food. The people of Hilsbach then happily welcomed our new exhibit. Residents and visitors to the region did not want to miss out on the spectacle and lined the streets to catch a glimpse of the gigantic metal colossus. But before the convoy could be parked, a tricky intersection in the town centre had to be mastered. Only a few centimetres separated U17 from the church wall and a residential building. After successful manoeuvring, the crew had more than earned the applause that followed.
