Munich, Germany

An article from the local paper:

"Gondelas on the canal in front of Nymphenburg Palace--it's been that way for the last 200 years. Of course now the secret Guglmen* sat in the gondela. The men in the black capes wanted to say to Duke Franz, the official estate administrator of Ludwig II, "Duke, give us back the King!" Which means: the Duke should remove from around the tomb the fence which partitions off the coffin of the Fairy Tale King. In the end the Duke didn't budge, except to call the police. And then he went for a gondela ride..."

*I have no idea what a Guglman might be,
and the dictionary doesn't either...
