Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:

Located in the heart of Franconia in northern Bavaria, the ancient city of Rothenburg ob der Tauber is a must-see day trip destination for any visitor who finds him or herself in Munich. Here you will find Germany’s best-preserved walled medieval town, complete with two miles of defensive walls, ramparts and ancient cobbled streets. To make the most of your visit you can join a guided tour of the city to learn all about the history of the town and the notorious 30-year war between Catholics and Protestants which brought great misery to the city. Besides the city’s fascinating history, Rothenburg is best known for wonderful shopping and hosts a very popular Christmas Market each year.
