    Check this out - one of our viewers (Nadia) gave me the heads up - von Trapp family singers were on “What’s my Line”, in 1960, see it on RUclips here!!! ruclips.net/video/1j_cImXm1kw/видео.html
    (and while we are there, check out Julie Andrews on the show - ruclips.net/video/LoABYwa_RMo/видео.html)

    When I was small I used to watch the movie. I would try to sing like Julie Andrews. I imagined myself running through the hills and fields. But I could never carry the tune and was always scolded by my parents for giving them headaches. But I love the movie and the songs...and once awhile I will still watch it. Thanks for transporting me back to my childhood for a moment 👧

Have been a fan of this beautiful innocent film since childhood. So sad we are moving so far from these values in the current age. Hope one day to visit the Lodge & USA. Sincere thanks from England.

    A very dear sweet German elderly I know told me a wonderful story of the von Trapp family. She worked for Maria & the family when she was young.

    One interesting postscript: the eldest boy, Werner (called Kurt in the film) had some grandchildren who started a new group called the Von Trapp Singers. They toured from about 2000-2015, I think. There are some nice YT videos of them singing the old songs.

    Maria had a 3rd child, a son, named Johannes born in 1939. He returned to Stowe in late 70's to manage the Lodge. He was the sole heir of Maria's estate, after her death in '82.
    Last I knew, Johannes's son, was the manager of the Lodge.

      I live 7 miles from the lodge. This is nothing like it was 2 years ago. The garden was full of flowers. So full of flowers that it was difficult to see the grave sites. Because of the pandemic, I guess they could not keep the gardeners to tend to it and the gardens across the street. They never used to charge money to walk the grounds. So many things have changed.

      Maria Von Trapp, one of the daughters: The family did not secretly escape over the Alps to freedom in Switzerland, carrying their suitcases and musical instruments. As daughter Maria said in a 2003 interview printed in Opera News, "We did tell people that we were going to America to sing. And we did not climb over mountains with all our heavy suitcases and instruments. We left by train, pretending nothing."

    I can see why they fell in love with their home in Stowe Vermont. Reminiscent of the mountains of Austria. When they made the movie Marie actually met Julie Andrew's. But if I remember correctly Maria wasn't completely happy with how the VonTrapp story was told in the movie. I would have to rewatch the documentary again. They also didn't escape over the mountains by walking. I think they took a train.

    Thank you so much for sharing this. My husband, daughter, and I went there for a vacation and, sadly, Maria passed away a couple of days into our stay there. We were eating breakfast after we learned of her passing and saw the the family coming in to eat also. They had the movie, The Sound of Music, constantly playing in a room there at the Lodge so you could watch it anytime you wanted. Every evening during dinner they would have different musicians gracing us with beautiful music. It looks like they have expanded the Lodge since we were there and there were no tours(although I wish there had been.) Again, thank you for sharing this. It brought back bittersweet memories. We loved staying there, but were greatly saddened and surprised when they announced Maria had passed. We had no idea she was ill. It was nice to see some of the family's final resting places. I don't know if I'll ever get a chance to go back, but we have never forgotten the meaningful time that we spent there.

    The Sound of Music used to be my favorite when I was younger. My first grade class went to a theater to see the movie. Thanks for sharing 👍

    What a lovely place, so beautiful all the views. The story of this family is a history of it's own. The graves are lovely no concrete just flowers, I like that. Thank you Ron for sharing this. 🇦🇺

    This was such a treat Ron! I used to go skiing in Stowe an loved the area for its awesome beauty. I had heard that the Von Trapp family lodge but never go a chance to visit. So happy to have seen it through your channel. Many thanks! 😃

    I remember 'The sound of music ' movie when I was a child. I didn't know that the family left their native Austria. Thanks for the wonderful narration. Loved all the music in the movie though haven't seen it for 50 years!

    One of your most beautiful videos. My family was fortunate enough to have owned a second home in the Green Mountains for almost 40 years. It is just breathtaking. I miss it.

    Their great grandchildren grew up here in the Flathead Valley in Montana! They used to sing all over as The Von Trapp Children. They are amazing too. I'm not sure what they do now, last I heard the were in Portland singing more modern music. Their parents still have a place here in Somers.
