Regensburg's skyline is dominated by the two towers of this 13th-century cathedral.

The tall Gothic, Catholic Cathedral of St Peter dominates the Regensburg skyline. The interior has soaring columns to support the high ceilings accompanied by beautiful stained glass windows, statutes and artworks. There is restoration work on-going so exterior scaffolding and construction barriers were in place during my visit. On an overcast day the light inside is rather low for photography but still there is so much to see in this active cathedral.

Every corner of this historic Roman city seems to present the most casual walkers with another photo opportunity and the Old Town Hall is one of these, a few hundred metres from the remains of the Roman gateway. It is actually three buildings; the tower, the palace and baroque town hall. The museum inside is well worth a visit and, for the gloomy minded the torture chambers in the basement are chilling (indeed quite cold too!)

They say it is one of Germany's most important national monuments of the 19th century. Sits on top of a hill and commands an incredible view of the Danube River and valley. Had pay parking. Worth the visit and awesome view to sit and relax.

This cathedral is a masterpiece of the Rococo and Baroque style of the 18th century, probably the best in Germany. Upon entering, you are greeted by some of the most colourful frescoes and gold ornate gilt and amazing alter. Take time to just sit in a pew and take a few quiet moments to take in all its splendor. A first chapel was built by order of Charlemagne in the place where, according to tradition, the Roman temple dedicated to Juno was built. The chapel which was built after the fall of the Roman Empire of the West seems to have been the oldest in Bavaria and this earned it the nickname "Alte Kappelle", the «Old Chapel»

One of the most interesting historic churches we visited recently in Regensburg is that St. Emmeram, a Basilica minor located at Emmeramsplatz next to the Thurn and Taxis Palace. The church history dates back to 780AD and is considered a National Shrine in Bavaria. There are quite a few interesting things to see at St. Emmeram. The church is a mixture of Romanesque and Baroque architecture. The main portion of the church nave dates back to the 8th-century but was given a High Baroque makeover by the regionally important Bavarian architects Asam Brothers in the early 18th-century. The high altar, pulpit, ceiling fresco and numerous decorations with gilding create a beautiful interior. There is a 11th-century crypt with important tombs in the back that is worth a quick visit. Given the church age, its worth reading up on its history before or during your visit. This will help create context to what you are seeing at St. Emmeram Basilica in Regensburg.
