Füssen Altstadt

Füssen Altstadt is a charming historic town with a medieval character that impresses with its cobblestone streets and colorful Bavarian townhouses with beautiful frescoes.

As you explore the Old Town, you'll discover the High Castle (Hohes Schloss) towering over the city and the Baroque complex of St. Mang's Abbey with its mysterious 'Dance of Death' from the 17th century.

The town is also famous as the cradle of European violin-making - the first guild of violin makers was founded here in the 16th century. The surrounding Allgäu Mountains and the Lech River create a picturesque backdrop for this Bavarian gem.
