%B%CB%S4 The main square of Rothenburg: Take a night-stroll

  • Nightlife Spot: The main square of Rothenburg

    The main square and all major tourist-attractions of Rothenburg are beautifully lighted at night, untill late after midnight. All of the thousands of daytourists will be gone then and only a few people will be in the streets.
    That way it might even make sense to get out of the train for a short stop-over of 1 or 2 hours, in case that you pass by Rothenburg in the evening or night.

    The gothic church of St.Jakob makes certainly a great scerery to listen to an organ-concert. You may check for the dates and times on my link below, these concerts are held all over the year, at special dates, mostly around 08.00p.m.

    On my picture : The Marienaltar of St.Jakob, made by an unknown artists of the Riemenschneider-school in 1520.

    %B%CB%S4 Marionette - theatre at Burg-Tor: Zauberfloete performed by Marionettes
  • Tip Rating:
  • Nightlife Spot: Marionette - theatre at Burg-Tor

    Daily except on sundays you may attend a performance by Marionettes, playing "Zauberfloete" by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. That small theatre inside of a small halftimbered house is next to Burg-Tor, and opposite of the Pulverer-Weinstube.

    On my picture : The entrance of Burg-Tor. The small face in the middle was the spot, where hot pitch was spilled upon enemies.

     I also made it to this point and saw the great view. Well worth the effort to reach this point. Rothenburg is my favorite German city!!!

     Wow, this takes me back. My husband & I were in Germany last October. It was my 3rd trip & his 1st to Germany. He was working there & a one day trip to this little town was about all the sight-seeing he got to do. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

     Wow, after seeing your photos I realize I missed going inside the buildings and churches.
    Kuznetsov_Sergey Wed Feb 28, 2007 16:29 UTC
     How could I skip this beautiful town passing it by? Now I know that this purl of Romantishe Strasse would be in my wish Bavarian list. But not this year: SV BSZS will be held in Braunshweig - too far. Thanks a lot Michael - great job as usual!
