Altstadt

Rothenburg has made a concerted effort to preserve its medieval heritage, and Old Town reflects the historic fruits of this labor.

Christmas market we took our granddaughter to see the Christmas markets in Germany in the city and the Christmas market was a wonderful experience. The time itself without the Christmas market is a worthwhile experience because it had very little damage from the war And a lot of the structures are still intact if you are in Germany it’s a definite place you have to visit

Beautiful architecture! Don't miss the sacrament house sculpted by Adam Kraft. The incredible art survived the Reformation because families had donated these priceless items to preserve the memory of their loved ones.

The Christmas Market took over the square and made it look lovely with all the fairy lights and market stalls lit up. Quite busy but worth the visit.

Marktplatz

In the centre of the historical old town with historically preserved architecture: City Hall, City House, court pharmacy (first and therefore Coburg’s oldest pharmacy), statue of Prince Albert. Every Wednesday and Saturday a weekly market takes place here and during Advent is the Coburg Christmas market.

I visited the Marktplatz for the Christmas Market December 2019. It's in the center of the Marktplatz, and the Christmas Market has stalls placed in a way that forms multiple circles. It was so pleasant to walk around and around and around again. Of course, there is the delicious Coburger Bratwurst (don't miss it!), and lots of other foods and drinks and shopping. Mostly, I just enjoyed it for the people-watching (and the Bratwurst!) Down a nearby street, there are WCs for all the tourists. Coburg is a lovely town, and I can't wait to get back to its Christmas Market in 2021!

Altstadt (Old Town)

The Old Town of Heidelberg starts from Sofienstrasse and brings you to the castle. In the middle there is the University Area (the oldest university in Germany), the main shopping street (Hauptstrasse) and it includes to famous Karl-Theodor-Bridge / the Old bridge.

Exploring the Old Town makes the best day trip. It is such a beautiful city and it is very easy to walk between all of the main sights in this area. TIPS: 1. TRAIN - My most important tip if you’re arriving by train is to make sure that you get off at Heidelberg Alstadt station. This will place you right at the Old Town. Don’t do what we did and leap off at Heidelberg Hbf (Central Station). We had to walk about 30 minutes to get to Alstadt. Mostly we could walk along the river which was at least a pleasant walk. 2. PLANNING AHEAD - although everything is close together, there is too much to see in only one day so I’d recommend deciding what you’ll see and what you’ll skip before you go. 3. TIMING - We arrived at around 11am and left around 4pm. We had enough time to look at the Old Bridge, walk through Kornmarkt and Marktplatz squares, catch a cable car to the Schloss (castle) and walk the Philosophers Path in the afternoon. 4. KING’S THRONE FUNICULAR - If you are planning to catch the funicular train up to King’s Throne (Königstuhl), be aware that there can be a long wait at the mid-section station so I’d recommend asking at the ticket desk before you buy the ticket. We’d planned to go but changed our mind when they warned us to expect a 2 hour wait at the second funicular. Instead we opted to get the funicular to the castle only. 5. VISIT CASTLE IN THE MORNING - The queue to the castle can be long too. It took us about 30 - 40 minutes to queue for tickets and get the cable car. From memory, we got there around midday. When we came down a few hours later, the queue had snaked out the door and around the building so I'd suggest doing this earlier in the day. 5. HIGHLIGHTS – The highlight was definitely the Schloss (Castle). The views over the town and river were outstanding, the castle (although in ruins) is very picturesque and the grounds are beautiful. The castle ticket also includes the Apothecary Museum (surprisingly interesting) and the Tun (world’s largest wine keg).

Altstadt

Reviewed By kevinwB5072PW - Gainsborough, United Kingdom

We took a stroll through the Old Town of Nuremberg from the castle uphill through the castle opposite the main train station and beyond, and we marvelled at the beautiful medieval buildings and picturesque canal. Later, we visited a museum near the upper castle and we were astonished to see photos of the city of Nuremberg utterly reduced to rubble by WW2 bombing. The reconstruction of this beautiful city is simply amazing and it is well worth a visit for this reason alone. Also, the transport system is integrated and operates with true German efficiency.
