Rothenburg ob der Tauber

The free imperial city of Rothenburg is world-famous for its medieval old town with its winding alleyways. The large market square and the church of St. Jakob, which houses an altar by the famous Würzburg carver Tilman Riemenschneider, are just a few steps away. The famous Reiterlesmarkt at Christmas time is also very close by. In addition to a tour of the town or a visit to one of the many museums, a walk along the town wall, which was rebuilt after the Second World War, is also well worth a visit. The beautiful Rothenburg countryside is ideal for hiking, cycling and horse riding. In the summer months, the historical festival “Der Meistertrunk”, which celebrates the liberation of the town in the 30 Years' War every year at Whitsun, is particularly worth a visit.
