Rothenburg o.d.T. - Pearl of German Romanticism

by elgin99 - last update: Jul 14, 2006

Come in...

One of many gates into town
and visit the famous town of German Romanticism.

(you need Realplayer)

Winding narrow alleys and streets nice half-timbered houses, comfortable restaurants, Gothic and Renaissance style buildings. Worth seeing the castle and his garden. And to recommend also the German crime museum. Nevertheless, one should carry comfortable shoes to be able to stroll long time on the paved streets.
Castle Garden
The nice castle Garden with view above the town.

open-air museum

Bad Windsheim. Famous, special and large open-air museum. There you can see many history houses. Middle ages till time when our grandparents lived. All houses are replaced (rebuilt) and are originals.

Look for more pictures in Travelogues.

 My ancesters are Roths from Germany in the Bavarian region. They immigrated to the US around 1850. I am fascinated by the area.
