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

Market Square

Reviewed By kdh78 - Fort Gibson, United States

We visited Rothenburg ob der Tauber in December and were very lucky to visit the Christmas Market in the Market Square. What a beautiful setting for the Christmas market in this charming old town! Drinking the gluhwein and eating German sausages outside in the marketplace while enjoying the gorgeous (and enormous) Christmas tree and decorations was just magical. Lots of little stalls for shopping. Friendly atmosphere. If you are contemplating a visit to this lovely, old medieval town consider travelling in December, when it's even more beautiful.

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.

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.

Pompejanum

Reviewed By 688alexj - Hamilton, United Kingdom

I visited this attraction last week during a very sunny spell. the building is stunning and was built in the 1860's for King Ludwig the 4th. It is well worth the visit, and the interior is simply stunning. Unfortunately they do not allow photography, so I cannot post any pictures, but I do recommend that you pay it a visit if you are in Aschaffenburg.
