To mark 70 years of twinning between Cheltenham and Goettingen, a twinning gathering was held in Montpellier Gardens on 3 August to celebrate the occasion.
About 40 people who have been to Goettingen and taken part in exchanges over the years enjoyed a picnic with German food and drink and videoed messages of greetings to friends in our German twin town.
Goettingen will be having their own picnic in the park later in August to celebrate 70 years, as we can’t all meet face to face this year.
The Big Party Visit from Goettingen to Cheltenham scheduled for this year, will hopefully take place in 2022.
