Bamberg old town

Bamberg old town is a unique UNESCO-listed site where history comes alive at every turn. More than 1,200 architectural monuments, including the impressive St. Peter's and St. George's Cathedral with its four towers and the famous Horseman of Bamberg, transport you back to medieval times.

The stunning Old City Hall (Altes Rathaus), built on an artificial island in the Regnitz River, combines Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque styles. While strolling through the three historic districts, sample the local smoked Rauchbier beer and visit the Rose Garden with 4,500 roses of 50 varieties.
