    OK, since no one is saying anything and the next puzzle has been published, here are the answers for puzzle # http://www.indusladies.com/forums/e...ts-fire-up-those-neurons-495.html#post3664230

    ​The answer is: The period is the early 1800s in Germany during the time of Ludwig 1, the grand father of Ludwig II (infamously known as the mad king).

    Image 1: Strassbourg in France, near the border of Germany is where Ludwig 1 was born.

    Image 2: The old pinakothek - an art museum. Ludwig 1 was a great patron of the arts. This love for the arts was evident in Ludwig II as well.

    Image 3: He had supported the Greek war of independence.

    Image 4: The first Oktober Fest was celebrated on the Theresenwiese in Munich to celebrate the wedding of Ludwig 1 to Therese of Saxe-Hildburghausen,

    Image 5:
    Ludwig was an eccentric and notoriously bad poet. He would write about anything, no matter how trivial, with strings of rhyming couplets. For this the king was teased by Heinrich Heine who wrote several mockery poems in Ludwig's style.

    Image 6: The first railway in Germany was built by Ludwig 1.

    Additional clues: "Die Schoenheitsgalerie" in the Nymphenburg Palace in Munich. The "gallery of beauties" was one of his most famous conceptions.

    The Bavaria statue was also built during his time.

    Verbal clues:

    Circumstances during his reign where he was forced to do some things he did not like, forced Ludwig 1 to abdicate the throne since he did not want to be a mere rubber stamp.
