Det Gamle Ribe

Bonuscache: GC8EHP3 DK: En lille tur rundt i Ribe for at besøge nogle markante steder i byens lange historie. Ribe er Danmarks ældste by, og blev grundlagt i år 704-710. Den startede som en handelsplads for datidens vikinger. Byen fik sit navn efter det olddanske ord "ripa" der betyder striber/strimler, og menes at være navngivet således fordi jordloderne på markedspladserne var smalle strimler af land. I byens historie findes også mange danske hekseprocesser, mest kendt er Maren Splids, der blev brændt på bålet i 1641.
