Itinerary

  1. 1

    Blade Gate

    2 hours

    Day trip to Rothenburg ob der Tauber from Frankfurt. Having left the access highway in the area of Würzburg we will follow the Romantic Road (country roads) to this unique medieval town. On a walking tour through the picturesque alleyways you will come to see the old frameworked houses and the “Plönlein”, the landmark of Rothenburg. On over cobblestoned streets alongside the beautifully decorated townhouses of the old center, along the Herren-Alley to the mighty city gates and alongside the accessible citywall. The extensive castle gardens offer a splendid panorama view of the valley of the river Tauber.

  2. 2

    St. Jakobskirche

    2 hours

    On to the central marketplace with its mighty Renaissance town hall, and St. Jacobs Church to see the altar of Tilman Riemenschneider, one of the most outstanding artists of the Middle Ages. We recommend to visit as well one of the very worth seeing museums of Rothenburg: The medieval crime museum, the history vault or the museum of German Christmas. To see Rothenburg is an incredible journey through time. And a special place for beautiful souvenirs: wood carvings, glasses, Christmas decorations, beer mugs and even cuckoo clocks. Culinary recommended: the "snowball" of sweet shortcrust pastry.
