1. Mercedes-Benz Museum
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 8,161 reviews
The Museum celebrates the automobile invented by Carl Benz in 1886: it relates its history and tells its stories, bringing both alive by placing them in the context of technology, day-to-day life, social history and popular culture. More than 160 vehicles of all types are the main protagonists. They range from some of the oldest automobiles ever built to legendary racing cars and futuristic research vehicles. Together with other exhibits, they form the centrepiece of the permanent exhibition covering a total of 16,500 square metres in twelve rooms. This unparalleled world can be discovered on two tours that follow a 'Legend' and 'Collection' narrative.

A mazing museum of automotive history, brilliantly laid out in a logical fashion with very good information relating to world history as you start from the top at the beginning and work your way down to the present at the bottom. Lots to see and some great photo opportunities. Take plenty of time. 2hours at least. The shop at the end of museum is good but a bit pricey. And we were lucky, in front of museum was a classic car meeting that day. Many american muscle cars to see.

Miniatur Wunderland is the world’s largest model train exhibit, and still growing. See trains running through recreations of Hamburg and the coast, Austria, the Grand Canyon and Scandinavia.

We stayed for 3 hours and thoroughly enjoyed our stay, there's lots of little details to see in the scenes and the airport with planes taking off and landing is impressive. The venue gets quieter later, it was a bit too full when we arrived at 2:30pm, and there are reduced price tickets near closing time. There's a cloakroom (50 cents) before the entrance, or lockers with returnable 1€ in the café. They ask you not to take rucksacks into the exhibition.

4. Marienplatz
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 25,215 reviews
This prominent public square, the largest in Munich, still stands as the center of social activity in the city, much as it has throughout history.
Reviewed By tatianam22 - Charlotte, United States
We were lucky to visit Marienplatz during Christmas, so we could experience the magical part of the decorated tree, the Christmas market with all its colorful displays of baked goods, toys, gluhwein. It's a busy place in the heart of Bavaria, reflecting new and past, mixing old architecture and modern shopping malls. Bustling atmosphere, a sea of tourists and locals create a unique vibe of hospitality and generosity of Bavaria.
5. Reichstag Building

Situated just north of the Brandenburg Gate, this building houses the German Parliament and was the seat of the Weimar Republic government until it was seized by the Nazis in 1933.

6. Cologne Cathedral
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 21,825 reviews
This giant Gothic cathedral, which until its completion in 1880 had been under construction for over 500 years, is perhaps Germany's most famous religious structure and includes two huge towers that serve as the defining symbol of Cologne's skyline.

7. The Dresden Zwinger
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 4,678 reviews
Situated in the heart of the Saxon state capital, the Dresden Zwinger ranks among Germany’s most well-known Baroque buildings of Germany and is, apart from the Church of Our Lady, certainly the most famous building monument in Dresden. It accommodates internationally renowned museums and is a place for staging music and theater performances.
Reviewed By 817gerryd - Winnipeg, Canada
I marvelled at the ingenuity and craftsmanship of the various instruments displayed in the mathematical gallery of the Zwinger. I thought I would just breeze through but the intricacies of the objects and the fact that there were English explanations really captured my interest even though I am not that interested in Mathematics. There are displays of clocks , surveying equipment, microscopes and telescopes and very old globes as well as many other inventions.Make sure you visit this gallery which is included on your Museum Pass that you can purchase at the Information centre in the middle of the old town. A two day pass is just 22 Euros.
8. Main Tower

The Main Tower is one of the highest buildings in Frankfurt. Climb to the top of this 200-meter high building (take an elevator for the first 190 meters and walk the last 10) for incomparable views of the city.

Must see, i recommend you want through römerberg area and opera house on foot then go to main tower, you will definitely enjoy the view and the history of all the buildings you came across. I got 20% off with Frankfurt card that includes unlimited rides of public transit and trip to/from Airport.
9. 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.
10. Classic Remise Dusseldorf
Overall Ratings

Reviewed By tcut - Dallas, United States
We had a great time at Classic Remise Düsseldorf and it's a must-see for classic car enthusiasts. We enjoyed a really good, reasonably-priced lunch at the central restaurant (on the site of the old train turntable). The pizza was excellent and big, plenty for two and, of course, there's altbier. It's really fun to sit there among so many, varied and beautiful automobiles. We wandered for over an hour, fascinated. The variety is incredible, and it's fun to see the prices and descriptions on the cars for sale, take in the variety of stored cars, look down on active garages working on these beauties, and admire the interesting building. Free admission, free parking. Highly recommend!
