Ice Rink in Burghausen

This is the ice rink that is set up in front of the Burgerhaus in the New Town section of Burghausen now.
It is in the area where the teenagers skateboard during the summer. There is a system to freeze the rink even when the temperatures are above freezing outside.
It is free of charge and everybody, young and old, uses it.
Today there was a group of men playing a sport I had never seen before.
It looked like a cross between curling and shuffleboard.
I think it is a game called Eisstockschießen (Ice Stock)



As you can see, they were having a great time.  The guy waving at me had been trying to point out the best players to me earlier
