What to do and see in Ulm, Baden-Wurttemberg: The Best Things to do Good for a Rainy Day
Founded in the mid-9th century, Ulm enjoyed a long history as a free imperial city, ruled only by the Holy Roman Emperor with no pesky princes in between. An important trade town for centuries, Ulm was also the birthplace of Albert Einstein. Rising 530 feet, Ulm Minster has the world’s tallest steeple, the top of which can be reached via 768 steps. Ulm’s younger sister city, Neo Ulm (or New Ulm) lies just across the Danube River and is part of Bavaria rather than Baden-Wurttemberg.

The interior of the minster was much more impressive than I had expected. The modern stained glass windows are unique. And of course going up the highest steeple in the world is an extraordinary experience.

The exhibition in the Museum of Bread and Art has two parts. Art is on one side, and topics such as bread, everyday life, nutrition, and consumption are on the other side. There are cultural dimensions to both parts: it is about understanding and interpreting the world around us, especially the exploration of the spaces in between stereotypes and popular conceptions. The two halves complement each other. This is what makes this museum so special.

Das Stadthaus Ulm ist neben dem Ulmer Münster das zentrale Gebäude auf dem Ulmer Münsterplatz. Es wurde von dem New Yorker Architekten Richard Meier entworfen und im Jahr 1993 fertiggestellt. Rund 25 Jahre nach seiner Eröffnung wurde der einst in der Bevölkerung heftig umstrittene Stadthaus-Bau in Ulm unter Denkmalschutz gestellt. Das betont sachlich gehaltene Gebäudes aus Beton und Glas wurde im Jahr 2019 in das baden-württembergische Buch der Kulturdenkmale aufgenommen. Das Stadthaus ist ein internationaler Markstein moderner Stadtarchitektur. Es ist Ausstellungshaus und Veranstaltungsort, moderne Bauskulptur und Bewahrerin historischer Wurzeln, Bürgerforum und Café-Restaurant, Anlaufstelle für Touristen, Austragungsort eines internationalen Festivals neuer Musik und zeitgenössischer Tanzperformances. Der Neubebauung des Platzes, auf dem das Stadthaus steht, ging ein über 100-jähriges Ringen um die "richtige" Lösung voraus.

We saw an excellent exposition Schneider von Ulm, clever, fun, and interesting. The exposition is about how we relate to flying, using international artists perspectives. Take the time to look at the details. Wonderful and informative staff.
