Rothenburg ob der Tauber — Old Town

Highlight • Historical Site

Rothenburg is considered one of Germany's best-preserved medieval old towns, and the first glimpse of the half-timbered facades around the market square immediately shows you why. If you have some time, a walk along the completely preserved town wall is worthwhile. From above, you'll see the old town's roofscape from a perspective you won't soon forget. In the early morning, the city is still quiet and almost belongs to you alone.

Market Square Bad Windsheim

A beautiful place with a historic city center. It is very nice to sit in front of the Döbler brewery - and you can taste it there too.

July 29, 2024,Durchs Aischtal nach Rothenburg ob der Tauber🌞👍

Today we went to the tourist hotspot Rothenburg ob der Tauber. A lovely tour through the Aischtal (the Aisch is small, the valley is big) on easy to ride, quiet roads. We drove through small villages and the Franconian Heights. The highlight was of course the old town of Rothenburg ob der Tauber with the impressive city wall and the …

Pedaled to Rothenburg today in a strong headwind, very nice section of the route. On the way back with a nice tail wind, it went back quickly. That was the reward!

Day 3 of the tour Bamberg/Rothenburg and back. Today on well-developed cycle paths and again very well signposted, we set off very early so that it was cooler. The churches in Burgbernheim and Schweinsdorf are very beautiful and absolutely worth seeing. Rothenburg is always beautiful - and there was even space to run with a bike - but for lunch …
