Located in the Bavaria district of Germany, on the River Regnitz BAMBERG is a World Heritage city, with one of Europe's largest intact old town centers. In the 17th and 18th centuries, the Prince Bishops of Bamberg gave the Middle Age architecture its largely Baroque appearance.
Points of interest include the wonderful Altes Rathaus, the Bamberg Town Hall with the beautiful frescoes painted on it. Actually it was one of our VT members "Bamberg" page that really enticed me to make a stop here after visiting Rothenburg on der Tauber. I didn't know much about it before. It was a bit out of our way, but sooooo worth it. |

Glad you went out of your way to have a look at the beautiful city of Bamberg. I have only been there a few times on business, so I haven't done a full VT page on it, just a few Off the Beaten Path tips on my Nürnberg page. | jumpingnorman Tue Aug 25, 2009 16:09 UTC
What a wonderful stop you had --- very nice townhall, and that little Venice looks awesome! Also glad you found a Christmas store! Norman :) | TheWanderingCamel Mon May 11, 2009 15:35 UTC
We stayed in Bamberg a few years back - with a hotel room that looked straight onto the Rathaus - gorgeous! A gem of a city, your page brings back such nice memories. leyle | lynnehamman Mon May 11, 2009 09:20 UTC
interesting page on Bamberg, Lori. The Rathaus sure has eclectic architectural features! Love the frescos though.And the 'litle Venice' is unusual.Good photos. |
