Priscilla Presley took a meaningful walk down memory lane while on an overseas trip to Germany recently for a special show called An Intimate Evening With Priscilla Presley on March 22.
While in Germany, she stopped in the town of Bad Nauheim, where she first met her late husband, Elvis Presley, in 1959, when she was in high school and he was in the U.S. Army.

Fans shared appreciation for the post, writing kind notes like, “i hope you are enjoying your trip, so many precious memories 💗💗,” and “This is so beautiful how Germany forever remembers the endless love between you and Elvis ❤️❤️❤️.”
While in Bad Nauheim, Priscilla also got to see the town’s new statue of Presley for the first time, sharing a photo of herself posing in front of it.
She shared how much the moment meant to her while speaking with reporters in Germany, via Stars and Stripes, saying, “This is very important to me. Being back brings back so many memories of that time.”
When she was a young teenager, Priscilla moved from Texas to Germany with her stepfather, Joseph Paul Beaulieu, who was an Air Force officer.
She shared what her classmates said when she left Texas, saying, “The teenagers that I knew back in Texas would all say, ‘Oh, you’re going to where Elvis Presley is. He’s over there at the same place that you’re going to go to.'”
“I never in my imagination thought that I would meet him,” she concluded.
While Presley left Germany about six months after the two met, they kept in contact for years before Priscilla moved to Memphis, Tenn. The couple got married in 1967.
