Letters From Germany with Love
Remember the fun and nostalgia of getting real personal mail? With PRETZEL POST, it’s back — and it’s got castles, sausages, and a tiny dog.
Each month, a letter directly from Germany lands in your mailbox, full of legends and old-world charm — based on the real world adventures of me, Victoria and my royal dog „Rudolf von Rothenburg“.
Rothenburg ob der Tauber is one of the most well-known medieval towns in Germany. And as residents often say, “We’re not tourists. We live here!” So come experience life in Germany together with us by post — one tail-wagging tale at a time!

Far-away Castles
Want to know a secret? Germany has over 20,000 medieval castles! You’d need a lifetime (and very comfy shoes) to see them all. So we pick the most magical and mysterious ones to feature in our letters—each one packed with fun facts, hidden legends, and local flavor.
PRETZEL POST is like getting a mini adventure in your mailbox, straight from the heart of Europe.
Rudolf von Rothenburg
Our furry friend „Rudolf von Rothenburg“ or „Rudi“ for short, is our royal little buddy.
With his little nose held high, he is quite photogenic and we hope you will enjoy seeing him in many of our photos and artwork.
