    Things To Do: Altes Rathaus
  • Tip Rating:
  • Regensburg’s Altes Rathaus or Old Town Hall has gone through many incarnations from medieval to baroque and offers tours in English daily at 3:15 but it was such a nice day, we just enjoyed the views of the intricately carved windows bedecked with flowers.

    Directions: In the Rathausplatz next to the Tourist Information Office.

  • The Neupfarrkirche or Reformed Church was built in1540 and dominates its namesake cafe laden square. The square was a Jewish Ghetto in the middle ages and the church itself was built on the site of a former Synagogue.

    Directions: Neupfarrplatz is very close to the Domplatz. The Old Town is quite small and you're bound to get to just about every square if you wander around for a couple hours.

     were you sober when you were gathering info for your Regensburg tips?!?!? Most of them revolve around beer, flavours and brands ... What an inebriating experience is the perusal of this page ... :-))))

     I loved your write-up on my hometown of Regensburg. I think it's a beautiful old city and well worth a trip. While I have lived in the US for many years, I always look forward to going back home to Regensburg.
