How Travel Inspires a Novel - Vienna and the Spear of Destiny

from The Top Travel Destinations with Kevin Flanagan · host The Top Travel Destinations - Kevin Flanagan

Vienna: schnitzel, Sachertorte, coffee-house afternoons — and, hidden in the Hofburg's Imperial Treasury, an iron spearhead legend calls the Spear of Destiny: the lance of Longinus, coveted by emperors and stolen by Hitler himself. Kevin follows it from Vienna to a claustrophobic Nuremberg bunker — and reveals how standing before this relic inspired his novel, The Secret of the Sacred Spear.You can also follow The Top Travel Destinations on social media for updates: Instagram: ⁠@thetoptraveldestinations⁠X: ⁠@becreativekev
