It was a perfect tour! We wanted the history of the city, and we covered it from the Romans to present day. Lots of local flavor (even met the Mayor!) and perfect timing for the Christmas markets.

Regensburg is a very charming town along the Danube river and is well worth visiting. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. One of the few cities to escape destruction during World War II, it is a well-preserved medieval city. One of its attractions is the Old Stone Bridge which was built in the 12th century. St-Peter's Church is well worth visiting as is the Sausage house near the bridge.

Die Stadt besticht nicht nur durch ihren Dom.
Nein, an jeder Ecke gibt es neue und weitere Highlights, seien es kleine
Geschäfte oder Gaststätten und Brauereien.
Tip, mehrere Tage vor Ort verbringen. Es lohnt sich !
Wir waren in der Weihnachtszeit. An jedem kleineren Platz war ein Weihnachtsmarkt.
Der imposanteste war zweifellos der auf dem Gelände von Thurn und Taxis.
Der kostet zwar Eintritt, ist es aber wert.
