Location
Regensburg is one of the oldest cities in Germany, which impresses with its unique beauty and atmosphere. The city is located in the eastern part of the federal state of Bavaria, at the confluence of the Danube and Regen rivers. The historic city center of Regensburg is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, offering plenty of sights.
The main attraction and symbol of the city is St. Peter's Cathedral. This shrine is called the pearl of German Gothic. It is considered one of the most valuable architectural monuments in Bavaria. The facade of the temple is richly decorated with bas-reliefs depicting biblical scenes, kings, and saints. The interior is equally impressive, with beautiful stained glass windows, frescoes, sculptures, the cathedral's main altar made of silver by Augsburg masters in the 18th century, and much more.
Next to the cathedral is another popular attraction, the Stone Bridge, whose architectural style is similar to the iconic Charles Bridge in Prague. It is worth noting that the Stone Bridge, built in the 12th century, is one of the oldest active stone bridges in Europe. At the foot of the Stone Bridge is the oldest sausage shop in the world, where one can have a tasty snack and enjoy a glass of real Bavarian beer.
A stroll through the triangular Haidplatz square in the heart of the old town, with its beautiful fountains and architectural structures, is also highly recommended. During the Middle Ages, this square was used as an arena for knightly tournaments, giving it a special atmosphere.
Other places of interest in Regensburg include the Old City Hall, the Thurn and Taxis Palace, the Goliath House, the Basilica of St. Emmeram, and the New Parish Church.
Regensburg is also famous for its vibrant cultural life, with numerous theaters, cinemas and exhibition centers. In the evening, one can relax in one of the city's many bars, cafes and restaurants.
