Highline179

Mentioned on 
16 lists 
Tours
Bridge
Sightseeing Tours
Highline179 is an exhilarating pedestrian suspension bridge that spans 406 meters over a river gorge, connecting the castle ruins of Ehrenberg with Fort Claudia in Reutte. Adjacent to the Burg, this thrilling bridge offers visitors the sensation of floating as they walk across its narrow and open construction. The bridge stands at a height of 114 meters above the ground and provides stunning views of the surrounding landscape.
The landscape is breathtaking, surrounded by mountains, and crossing the Highline bridge was truly thrilling. It took us about 10–15 minutes to walk across, and on the other side you’ll find small benches where you can sit, relax, and enjoy the scenic views. There’s also a little playground for kids and a short 10-minute movie, though it might feel a bit scary for some children. The view from the castle is equally beautiful—definitely worth a visit!
Sukhada K — Google review
Bloody incredible!!! You need to not be too scared of heights but its such a rush when you make it to the other side. Views are incredible! For €72 for my husband & I, we got a ride up to the 1st station, a walk across the suspension bridge & back, a walk around the fort & a ride down on the zip line. Such a thrill for two Aussies to see and experience all of this. Highly recommend this!
Noelle J — Google review
Very nice experience overall. Worth it! We were skeptic at first but eventually it turned out good. There are actually 3-4 things to do. 1. The highline bridge itself. Hanging and very long....people get there cross it and go to other side. Go to the viewpoint next to the end and click nice views of the valley. 2. Come back and do the ruins. 12-14th century. For historians ig would be great. For others some history and some good views. 3. You could go further up by another cable car...separately charged. ( you could buy all the tickets at the start @bottom). Astounding views. Ruins of the fort and small store for drinks etc. 4. Come down to original level and you can do the zip line (20 euros) or come down back through cable car. 5. Kids playing areas as well at both the levels. Overall great. Posting some pics. See the views yourself. Toilets at all levels. Car park entry both sides of the road. Leave a thumbs up if you like the review and the photos.

When one is in the neighbourhood as in our case just over the border from Germany, this is a drill seeking adventure not only walking the bridge, but the option to visit a number of castles, all ruins, but with so much of history, to the breathtaking views of the surroundings. In our case we took the Ehrenberg Liner via an inclined elevator, Europe largest. We transit to TopLiner to enjoy Fortress Schlosskopf, with all the views around. Return to the middle station highline 172, 400 meters above ground with the occasional winds and movements, a real moment, one for the bucket list. We ended up at Castle Ehrenberg. Plenty of payable car park available.

Bridge 179, a tourist attraction. The largest iron bridge in Europe connecting 2 points (fortresses). There is a large parking lot a few minutes walk from the start of the route. Parking costs 5 euros for a regular car. There are 2 routes to choose: 1) on foot, about a 20-minute walk up the mountain to the bridge. 2) go up by funicular (31 euros for a family of 2 + 2). The cost of the bridge per family is 36 euros. if you want to go up to the higher part (1740 meters) another 31 euros (really not cheap) you can do the first part on foot up + down. The bridge is crazy, really long above the entire area - the bridge sways but very safe. In addition, there is a small museum on site. A very nice experience, very special but not cheap.
Sharon F — Google review
Very nice experience! It actually turned out to be a great exercise for me since I’m a bit afraid of heights. You can hold the sides to feel safer, and although it moves slightly when others walk, it feels stable overall. The view is amazing, especially on a clear day. If you’re scared of heights, I recommend visiting during quieter hours — it’s totally worth it!
Rochella J — Google review
What an unexpected day here, stunning landscape and worth every euro to enter. The high line is super safe but sways enough to give you some thrills. Wasn’t a part of our original journey but if you are thinking about it, just do it. Staff was very friendly and helpful, spoke English (Danke). Parking and entry were available via credit card but bathrooms (WC) were cash pay by coin and with a change machine available.
Jacob S — Google review
We visited Highline179 today with friends and it was a stunning experience! The suspension bridge itself is absolutely breathtaking, with panoramic views over the valley and surrounding mountains. The short walk up to the entrance took us about 10–15 minutes on one side, and it was well worth it once we stepped onto the bridge. Crossing it together was exciting, a little thrilling, and gave us amazing photo opportunities. Definitely a must-visit if you’re in the area!

Neuschwanstein Castle

Mentioned on 
+114 other lists 
Castle
Sights & Landmarks
Neuschwanstein Castle, a 19th-century hilltop fortress commissioned by King Ludwig II, is a must-see attraction nestled in the Bavarian Alps near the Austrian border. It's one of Germany's most visited sites and offers tours of its lavishly furnished rooms. While it's a popular tourist spot, some travelers recommend exploring other day trips from Munich for a more rewarding experience.
🇩🇪 A Must-Visit in Germany: Neuschwanstein Castle If you’re planning a trip to Germany, Neuschwanstein Castle is an absolute must-see. Perched on a hill in Bavaria, it looks like something straight out of a fairytale — and it’s no wonder it inspired Disney’s Sleeping Beauty castle! There are two main options to reach the castle from the ticket center: 🚌 By shuttle bus 🐎 By horse-drawn carriage For the return journey, you can use the same options or do what we did — walk back down. It’s about a 15–20 minute walk, and totally worth it for the scenic route and peaceful forest atmosphere. One of the highlights of our visit was Marienbrücke (Mary’s Bridge). From here, you get a stunning panoramic view of the entire castle — definitely postcard-perfect! We chose not to go inside the castle and instead spent our time enjoying the breathtaking views and the fairytale ambiance from the outside. It was still a truly magical experience. 🛍️ There’s a souvenir shop on site with some nice mementos. ☕ Unfortunately, the café was closed during our visit. 🚗 Parking is available, though a bit pricey if you’re only staying for a short time. Overall: A memorable and highly recommended experience!
Virgiele C — Google review
The castle location is so beautiful. It is a treat for the sight just to hike towards the castle that is surrounded by bavarian alps. The guided tour, on the other hand is rather short (only 30min). The rooms are accessible only by lots of stairs and no photography is allowed. Only 14 castle rooms were furnished. Furthermore during our visit the cafe was also closed. This was a bummer since the ticket is so expensive for 23euros per person. Furthermore even though young kids are allowed inside the castle for free they need their own ticket and it can't be booked online. The ticket we got got our toddler from the information booth did not have a scan code and my daughter could not get inside so i had to run to fund security to let her inside. The security guide solved the issue quickly though. The point is that the ticket handling system must be more organized and improved upon. On the other hand, the cave room, singers room and the balcony were breath taking so the hassle was kind of worth it. The ticket price should be reduced though. I would say overall it was a very pleasant experience.

A real-life Disney castle — but truly so much more than that! ✨ I still couldn’t get enough of this place. Every corner feels like stepping into a fairytale. The guided tour is a must — make sure to book it early, as tickets sell out fast. No photos are allowed inside, but it’s absolutely worth it. Each room reflects incredible richness, elegance, and the artistic soul of King Ludwig II — his passion for theatre, music, and beauty shines through every detail. It’s about a 20-minute walk uphill from the ticket area, but they also offer bus services (check the timings!) and horse-drawn carriage rides for a more scenic way up. The path is a bit steep, but once you reach the top, the view and the castle itself make every step worth it. King Ludwig II was truly a dreamer — and walking through his creation feels like walking inside his imagination. Go see it — it’s magical, surreal, and simply unforgettable. 🌄💙
Amrtha R — Google review
The castle is located in a beautiful setting. Tickets may be bought online or in person (reservation recommended for peak season). There’s free shuttle from downtown Füssen to the ticket center. There’s plenty of paid parking. To get up to the castle you may hire a chariot or walk up for 30-40 minutes. The scenery is beautiful and it is worth the walk. During summer the path is shaded by the threes. Inside the castle there’s plenty of stairs to go up. I advise looking up if it is wheelchair accessible.
Cassia V — Google review
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨ 4.5-Star Review – Neuschwanstein Castle Parking at Platz 4 is very spacious and costs €12 for 6 hours, conveniently located right next to where you catch the bus up to the castle. The bus fare is €5 per adult round trip, and it’s a smooth ride with beautiful scenery along the way. At the top, the area is clear and open, perfect for walking or biking with stunning views all around. The trails are beautiful, offering several photo spots and breathtaking panoramas of the castle and the valley below. There’s also a small snack and souvenir shop at the top with plenty of space and clean bathrooms, making it an easy and comfortable stop before or after exploring. Overall, Neuschwanstein Castle is a magical experience — well worth the visit and the walk. The scenery alone makes it unforgettable!
Jose P — Google review
When near Fussen and Schwangau Neuschwanstein Castle is a must. A beautiful 40 minute uphill walk will bring you there. You can take a shuttle or horse and buggy but the walk is doable if you like and are used to walking/hiking. We did not pay to go in but got good photos from many vantage points outside.
Leila S — Google review
You won't regret visiting here. It's beautiful on the outside but absolutely gorgeous on the inside. If you have trouble walking, definitely take the horse carriage up and/or down (costs money). The walk down is much easier. They have the cutest store after the tour and don't forget to check out the view outside near the bathrooms before leaving. You will not regret it!!
Casey — Google review
Absolutely breathtaking and immersive. The hike up is beautiful and you can take your time just enjoying the scenery. Plenty of photo opportunities outside of the castle, but no pictures inside until you get to the cafe.

Hohenschwangau Castle

Mentioned on 
+102 other lists 
Castle
Sights & Landmarks
Hohenschwangau Castle, a stunning Gothic-style summer residence of King Ludwig II, is located near the Pollat Gorge. The castle is being rebuilt in the authentic style of old German knights' castles and will feature habitable guest rooms with splendid views of the Sauling and the Tyrolean mountains. Nestled in a breathtaking landscape alongside Neuschwanstein, Hohenschwangau offers insight into the royal upbringing of King Ludwig II.
The castle is truly beautiful, offering picturesque views from a distance that allow you to capture its full grandeur. I recommend purchasing tickets online to save time. While photography is not permitted inside the castle, I believe the tour could be enhanced with more detailed information and exhibits about its history. In my opinion, the exterior of the castle is even more captivating than the interior tour. Overall, it was a good place to visit.
Hiwi — Google review
Definitely a must see castle. The grounds and the views are amazing. Unfortunately you cannot take photos of the interior. But nonetheless the interior doesn't disappoint either. I recommend that you get your ticket and tour time set up online. It definitely makes things easier. There are a few restaurants around the castle that have great food. Plus souvenir shoppes too.
Timothy T — Google review
Just a short 30-minute walk from the world-famous Neuschwanstein lies Schloss Hohenschwangau, and we can genuinely recommend adding it to your visit. While Neuschwanstein often gets most of the attention, Hohenschwangau has a charm and authenticity all of its own. Set against rolling hills, peaceful forests, and a beautiful lake, the castle feels more intimate and lived-in, offering a fascinating contrast to King Ludwig II’s fairytale creation. Tickets can be bought in advance—something we recommend, especially during busier months—and guided tours are offered in several languages. The tour provides wonderful insight into the history of the Bavarian royal family and the important role this castle played in Ludwig’s childhood. Many rooms remain furnished just as they were, which makes the visit feel historically rich and surprisingly personal. Even if you decide not to join a tour, the area around Schloss Hohenschwangau is perfect for a leisurely stroll. The paths are easy to navigate, and the views of the lake and surrounding mountains are incredibly beautiful. It’s a calm and charming place to unwind, especially after the more intense and crowded experience of Neuschwanstein. Overall, we found Schloss Hohenschwangau to be a beautiful and worthwhile addition to the day—less crowded, full of history, and surrounded by stunning scenery. If you’re already in the area, it’s absolutely worth visiting both castles to get the full experience of this remarkable region.

Nice hike up, but not too difficult. The audio guide was really informative and the castle was beautiful. Such a great place to visit!
Markie K — Google review
I visited a lot of Ludwig’s castles and this one isn’t the most spectacular per se but it is a must see specially if you’re interested in his history. This is where he grew up and where his parents lived. The castle has a lot of history that you can learn during your visit. The visit is made with a guide but you have an audio guide in your own language during the tour. It is activated in each room by the guide and lasts a few minutes. Our tour guide was young lady with dark hair. I don’t remember her name but she was one of the best guides I’ve encountered in a museum. She was lovely, smiling, added additional informations during our visit and was gentle. We had a great time visiting the castle thanks to her. You can also visit the gardens for free if you want but you have to book a ticket to see the inside. Also up here you get a nice view over the Neuschwanstein.
Melanie M — Google review
Overall, visiting Hohenschwangau Castle is one of the must do things for any tourist in the area. Personally my visit was both meaningful and enjoyable. The scenery was beautiful, the history fascinating and the atmosphere peaceful. It offered a valuable look into the roots of Ludwig II’s life and imagination, making it a visit worth remembering. On a side note, it’s recommended to book in advance, park your car in parking number 4 and keep in mind that only guided tours are offered inside as well as that picture and videos aren’t allowed.
A. K — Google review
Even tough it's not probably as nice as Neuschwanstein I really enjoyed being inside and especially a look through the window at the end of the tour. Around the castle there are food stands where you can enjoy a hot chilly and some sausage with drinks.
Pavle R — Google review
I visited the yellow castle since the smaller white one was sold out. I was blown away by how amazing the artwork is within. It's unfortunate that pictures aren't allowed inside considering how inspiring the story was. I'd suggest that more people book the yellow castle to see and learn about the old rulers.

Sights & Landmarks
Suspension bridge high over the Höhenbach River, illuminated at night, with mountain trails nearby.
One of the most beautiful places in Lechtal. I just recommend visiting this place, quite an easy path up to the bridge and then heading back to Holzgau via the waterfall. It will take a little over an hour (really easy walk) and you will have beautiful views of nature.

Hotel Füssen

Hotel Füssen is a cozy property located on a charming street in the old town. The rooms, although small, are clean and well-equipped for a comfortable stay. While there's no air conditioning, the central location allows for easy exploration of the area's colorful houses and proximity to attractions like the High Castle of Füssen. The friendly staff and convenient parking add to the overall positive experience.
Perfect stay! Starting with the room, which was brand new in the new wing of the hotel, very spacious with 2 queen size beds (this room was for 3 people), under floor heating and a large tv. Even though the hotel is positioned in the center and main pedestrian alley, it is not noisy at all. Very nice staff, good food (breakfast), there were options for everybody. Will definitely be back, totally worth it (the prices are good for what they offer)!

We had a perfect stay at Hotel Fussen. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. The included buffet breakfast was very good. The reception staff were friendly and helpful. We really liked the location of the hotel. It's just a few minutes walk from the train and bus stations, where you can take transport to do hikes in the nearby areas and the Neuschewanstein and Hohenschwanghau castles.
Debbie L — Google review
My bottom line on any property is: would I recommend it to family and friends. I wouldn't recommend this hotel. Too many negatives. Our room, for instance, was extremely hot with no way to cool it down. At least 80F/27C at night. The bathroom was tiny and the toilet jammed into a corner. You had to sit on it at a 45-degree angle. The shower was like trying to rinse w an eye dropper the water pressure was so bad on the second floor. It had a waterfall faucet in the shower, but the water pressure wasn't strong enough to keep it on. The sheets were like sleeping on burlap. The worst, though, is the confusion they had on my stay. They put me in one room, then claimed I was in that room plus another. They called multiple times and sent 'urgent' emails wanting to know why I was in two rooms and told me I needed to move my belongings ... Only to find out that they had screwed up. I didn't appreciate the implications that I had done something wrong and really didn't appreciate the multiple interruptions while I was trying to vacation. Travelling can be stressful enough ... I didn't need extra when I wasn't at fault. And on the day I was checking out, they sent emails to check in online. What? Why? Location was great. The restaurant is very nice. But there must be better hotels in Fussen that solve their own problems without being so eager to foist them onto a guest.

Right in the heart of Füssen. Great breakfast and spacious rooms. Feels a bit like an Airbnb because of how check-in and check-out works. Reception is not open 24/7 so take that into consideration.

The location in the old town is perfect. The hotel is recently renovated in a modern style. Very clean rooms are big with high ceiling. You will enjoy your stay. The breakfast is sufficient although croissants finished 30 minutes before the service ended. Tea and coffee facilities could be added to each room.

(Translated by Google) Thank you so much for slowing down the cable car especially for me to get on and off!!! I have serious back problems, and a little reminder was enough for the friendly employee at the valley station to give me a smooth ride on the chairlift. At the top station, the employee also knew about it and slowed down the cable car again especially for me... I've rarely experienced anything like this and would like to take this opportunity to thank you again. You helped fill me with gratitude and make me feel welcome in the Allgäu 🙏🙏🙏 THANK YOU (Original) Vielen lieben Dank für das ganz langsam fahren der Bahn extra für mich zum Ein und Aussteigen!!! Ich habe große Probleme mit dem Rücken und ein kleiner Hinweis darauf reichte dem netten Mitarbeiter an der Talstation, um mir einen guten Einstieg in den Sessellift zu ermöglichen. An der Bergstation wusste der Mitarbeiter ebenfalls schon Bescheid und verlangsamte die Bahn wieder extra meinetwegen.... Ich habe selten so etwas erlebt und möchte mich an dieser Stelle noch einmal dafür bedanken. Ihr habt dazu beigetragen, mich mit Dankbarkeit zu erfüllen und mich im Allgäu willkommen zu fühlen 🙏🙏🙏 DANKESCHÖN

(Translated by Google) Very friendly and helpful staff at the ticket office and chairlift. A great opportunity to see Oberjoch from above. During the first week of November, it wasn't very busy early in the morning. Therefore, only the Wiedhagbahn cable car was open. As non-hiking enthusiasts, we really wanted to enjoy the view from above. The easiest way to do this was by cable car. It wasn't until around 11:00 that other, larger groups arrived, who also headed up the "Smuggler's Trail." However, you won't get far there in sneakers. It's also not advisable to take the risk with small children. Therefore, we turned back and glided down on the same cable car. Beautiful views up there. Take panoramic photos right at the cable car station or a little further on at the reservoir. Remember not to leave any trash behind. Such beautiful places only remain beautiful if we care for and protect them. (Original) Sehr freundliches und zuvorkommendes Personal an der Kasse und am Sessellift. Eine gute Gelegenheit, den Ort Oberjoch auch mal von Oben anzusehen. In der ersten November-Woche war am frühen Morgen nicht viel los. Deswegen war auch nur die Wiedhagbahn geöffnet. Wir, als nicht aktive Wanderer, wollten uns unbedingt die Aussicht von Oben gönnen. Das ging am einfachsten per Seilbahn. Erst gegen 11:00 kamen weitere, grössere Gruppen hoch, die sich auch auf den "Schmugglersteig" machten. Mit Turnschuhen kommt man da jedoch nicht weit. Sollte auch nicht das Risiko mit kleinen Kindern eingehen. Deswegen sind wir wieder umgekehrt und mit der gleichen Seilbahn runter geglitten. Schöne Aussucht da oben. Panoramofotos direkt an der Bahn-Hütte machen oder etwas weiter am Wasser-Speicher. Denkt daran, dass kein Müll liegen bleibt. Solche schönen Orte bleiben nur schön, wenn wir sie pflegen und behütet.

(Translated by Google) The cable car is okay. However, I found the ceremony the staff perform both downstairs and upstairs when boarding to be completely excessive. I can understand that frail guests or small children need attention when boarding. However, the chairlift moves so slowly in the boarding and disembarking areas that normally fit hikers shouldn't be treated like toddlers or grazing cattle. (Original) Die Bahn ist ok. Allerdings empfand ich die Zeremonie, welche das Personal sowohl unten wie oben beim Einsteigen veranstaltet, vollkommen übertrieben. Ich kann ja verstehen, dass es bei gebrechlichen Gästen oder kleinen Kindern Aufmerksamkeit beim einsteigen benötigt. Der Sessel bewegt sich im Ein- und Ausstiegsbereich aber derart langsam, dass normal sportliche Wanderer dort weder wie Kleinkinder, noch wie Weidevieh behandelt werden sollten.

(Translated by Google) The chairlift takes you up to 1,440 meters. A protective shield can be lowered to protect against strong winds, rain, or snow. While ascending or descending, you'll enjoy a magnificent panoramic view of the Ostrach Valley and a sweeping glimpse of the Allgäu Alps. The almost silent ascent or descent creates a wonderful feeling, almost floating in the safety of the row of chairs. (Original) Sessellift Bahn die auf 1440 Meter hoch fährt. Gegen starken Wind oder Regen bzw Schnee lässt sich ein Schutzschild herunterziehen. Beim auf oder Abfahren hat man einen herrlichen Rundumblick ins Ostrach Tal und weite Sicht in die Allgäuer Alpen. Sehr angenehmes fast lautloses hinauf oder hinabfahren fast schweben erzeugt ein wunderschönes Feeling in der sicheren Sesselreihe.

Alpsee Bergwelt

Mentioned on 
1 list 
Temporarily Closed
Summer toboggan run
Water & Amusement Parks
Alpsee Bergwelt in Immenstadt offers an exhilarating Alpine roller coaster that winds through a forested mountainside, providing thrills for visitors of all ages. The attraction also features Germany's longest year-round toboggan run, the Alpsee coaster, as well as the Barenfalle high ropes course and the 'Abenteuer Alpe' mountain-playing adventure. Families can enjoy a large playground for little ones and zip lines for older kids and parents.
Plenty of parking, at least for this time of year, with only a €3 charge. Need to put in the cart number plate and pay the fixed fee for the whole day. Process to go on the cable car are €15,50 for adults for a rework trip which you can choose to come down with the coaster. Decided to go for a walk up with the kids (4 and 6) which we managed 1/4th of the way as it gets really steep. Can spend a few hours here
Mark P — Google review
What an awesome place to spend time with your family. They make it easy to get up the mountain using the ski lift. Tickets can be purchased at the box office or online all at the same price. Family discounts are offered and you can purchase packages for all the attractions. The Llama park was a treat and they even have three different places to eat once you summit. The toboggan karts are clean and very safe going down for like what it seemed as an eternity. I would highly recommend it as a must visit if you're in this area.
Anibal P — Google review
It's a great place for nature lovers. You can try a combination ticket for ascending and descending by cable car, or ascending and descending by coaster. Alternatively, you can walk up and down. The upper section consists of three sections: a children's park with an entrance fee, a climbing experience trail, and a free common area open to everyone. Spending time at an altitude of 1100 metres is enjoyable. I recommend bringing tick and insect repellent. Restaurant prices are reasonable and not touristy.

It is a nice, small ski area for families to introduce their kids to skiing. Being very small you can always keep an eye on your little ones, during their ski class or after (if they are old enough, to ski alone). The reason for only three stars is, it’s mainly having old T-bar lifts and this is in my opinion something to change, at least for one or two of the old T-bars. Nevertheless i will return with my family as i like the area.

UNESCO world heritage Park that is top notch in size, beauty and features. It's free, never locked and has the most flowers, herbs, trees and walking trails imaginable. Kneipp baths (multiple leg stations, arm stations for adults, kids and disabled people), educational herb garden with smell stations, frog pond, huge bird aviaries, fountains, lakes with duck islands, exercise and mobility stations ("the five Esslingers"), agility and balancing trails, barefoot trails, labyrinth, mud station to walk through and so much more. All based on Kneipp's natural healing therapies. You can't ever see it all, but you can try...

Amazing location if you are looking for for a calm therapeutic nature walk. There are trailed walks pathways where you can walk barefoot and experience different senses. Though I have visited here before but yesterday the rose garden was not well maintained, I think this years constant rain was not good. Highly recommended as well if you are coming here with elderly parents

Great destination for a calm therapeutic nature walk. One gets both peaceful and meditative encounter. The area is touristic also. I like the spacing and varieties of things to explore. It makes one appreciate the things we often take for granted. It's inspirational the history of the place and those that made it really happen. Fully recommend and worth your time if you're anywhere close to Bavaria.

Amazing park to visit in the middle of the forest. Beautiful rose garden and lovely lake. A bit disappointed as they don't keep the very famous umbrellas for longer time in the summer.

The barefoot trail is a lot of fun for the whole family. My only complaint is that some sections could be better marked since the paved road interrupts the trail. The trail is pretty rough on your feet but it is worth it for the experience. Some of the stations along the trail are mud pits, balance bridges, and various walking textures. Parking is a little difficult especially on weekends when the weather is nice. There are also limited lockers on site to store shoes. They require a 1 or 2 euro coin that is returned at the end of use.

This is an excellent park to visit if you all about the rides! The rides are great. Including some that I had never seen before in other parks. Many of the rides are not for kids under 1.40cm and they are worth it! We visited the park middle of the week. Off season and with some small rain. And we had the feeling that we have the whole park to ourselves!! Stuff is friendly and all rides are operational even if you are the only one there!! It has less of the fairytale park but for hardcode riders!!! Loved it!

Wonderful experience for the whole family - or you can just go crazy with your friends! The entry fee is a bit expensive for the first look, but you got value for your money. The food and drinks are at reasonable prices - not double takedown, and I really appreciate it. The park is clean, the staff is really kind and helpful. Grab a map at the entrance and you can spend the whole day there. Highly recommended for everyone!
Csaba S — Google review
Nice choice of rollercoasters, roundabouts, and other rides. Plenty of opportunities to dine, quite some at reasonable prices. The experience very much depends on the length of the waiting queues and thus on the number of people visiting the park. We went on a Friday in August, where many Bavarians are on vacation, so it was great. Kids with a birthday +- 5 days of the visit are free. Reduced fees for all under 1.50m. Most really heavy rides are free from 1.50m and 14 years of age.
Ron M — Google review
We went here on 3 November during kids autumn break, knowing it was the last week before Skyline closes for winter break: we paid the full price as it would of been summer season, a lot of amusements did not work as well as small huts with snacks were also closed. The staff for the rides were extremely RUDE and moody. We started to question if that was after Halloween mood or what has happened but everyone working there was super grumpy. It was quite disappointing experience and not worth of the money we spent.
Ieva S — Google review
If you want to use the train you have to walk 10-15 minutes from the station Rammingen bay to arrive the parking space and from there enter the park. If you are alone walking through empty fields might feel a bit uneasy. At least for me as a solo visitor arriving there early Sunday. You are provided with a useful map at the ticket booth. Adrenaline seekers should pick red-marked-equipments. There are beautiful sites for nature lovers as well. You need at least 5-6 hours to walk around and stay in line for your favourite games. The price and distance worth the adventure.

A trip to Ottobeuren Abbey isn't just a visit to a church—it's an experience. This insane beautiful church is a full-on masterpiece. The moment you step inside, you’re hit with a wave of awe that's hard to describe. The entire interior is a sensory feast. The paintings on the ceiling and walls are so vibrant, and the stories they tell through color and intricate detail are absolutely mesmerizing. Then there are the sculptures—each one feels alive, a testament to the incredible skill of the artists who created them. It’s like every surface, every corner, has a story to tell. This isn't just a place of worship; it's a "Gesamtkunstwerk," a total work of art, where painting, sculpture, and architecture merge into one breathtaking vision. If you're ever in the area, you have to see it for yourself. Pictures don’t do it justice.

Great place to visit if you're in Austria. The cable car is 1 big cable car that is shared with others at the same or similar time as you. Not a long ride, 5 minutes to the other side and you can nice views. When you reach the other side you can come straight back or you can get off and explore as there is mountains where you can do skiing there, there is also a kids playground area there which was useful for the kids. There is a wildlife park with small animals you can enter this as it comes with the ticket option if you chose this option. Good prices as I was expecting more. For 2 kids and 2 adults it cost £27 cable car and back and to see the wildlife park.

What a fantastic place. First as we are in a Mobile Home we could stay on site overnight. We went into the museum when it opened at 10am, the gentleman on the counter spoke english and showed us how to download the app so we could check out all the displays in English. Once inside ‘wow’ amazing displays and set ups, showing the history of caravanning and motorhoming. So glad we made the effort to see this museum. For those with children there are also areas to keep children occupied and I can imagine for hours.

LEGOLAND Germany is a family-friendly amusement park featuring thrilling rides and an aquarium, as well as impressive replicas of German landmarks constructed from LEGO bricks. Visitors can opt to stay at the LEGOLAND Hotels within the Holiday Village, which offers access to various amenities including restaurants, playgrounds, and a high ropes course. The park also provides opportunities for guests to observe the LEGO manufacturing process and create their own LEGO bricks. Additionally, there are water rides that offer an adrenaline rush.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 We had an amazing time at LEGOLAND Germany! The whole family enjoyed it from start to finish. October was a perfect time to visit—great weather and fun Halloween decorations throughout the park added to the magic. There were rides for all ages, and the kids especially loved the playgrounds and interactive areas. One of the smartest features: dedicated play zones near some of the rides so kids can stay entertained while adults wait in line—brilliant! The park layout is very manageable—flat and easy to walk without feeling exhausting. Bathrooms were accessible and food prices weren’t too crazy for a theme park, which was a pleasant surprise. All around, a fun and memorable family day. We’ll definitely be back (got the annual pass)!
Adriel R — Google review
A very successful experience for children aged 4-12. A large place with lots of options that are very difficult to complete in one day due to the long lines for most of the facilities. You have to arrive with a lot of patience. Overall, this is a park where the attractions themselves are not crazy, but the "wrapping" of Lego does its job. The place is very neat and clean and easy to navigate. Overall, this is a recommended day out for the family.
Yonatan A — Google review
This is in my opinion the best of the 3 Legoland parks in Europe. Everything is good value here, especially the food and the quality of said food is fantastic. I went into the pizza restaurant and paid around €16 for a fresh out of the oven pizza and amazing chocolate tart. They both felt like they came from an expensive restaurant, very tasty and beautiful presentation. You have the best selection of rides here from small to thrilling. A really good variety - the best being Maximus. An absolutely thrilling b&m coaster which despite the short ride time, offers some incredible moments of weightlessness. The park is kept tidy and clean - the bathrooms are cleaned very regularly. Queues are managed well and have the bonus of single rider if you're a lone traveller like me. Saves a lot of time. Theres a few little themed shops dotted around and although a couple were closed on my trip due to the time of year possibly, there's still a lot on offer. More than any other Lego park in Europe like I said. I had the best 2 days here and I can't wait to come back again.

We took the kids to Germany and our first stop before traditional castles and museums was Legoland Germany! We LOVED it. Drove straight from airport to the hotel (we stayed at the Pirate Hotel), checked in, then did a full afternoon and evening till close. We ate at the steak restaurant near hotels and onsite for snacks, lunch, etc. We prepaid for breakfast at Pirate hotel. Because of birthdays, we did the birthday package (they decorated the room and more) and because tip mattered we did the VIP package. THIS was worth every penny! We skipped the line at every ride, got extra swag & mini figures, and store discounts [don’t forget to ask for tax refund forms at the store (typically 100 or more spent)]. The staff are awesome and most are bilingual if you are rusty. If you are a LEGO fan or traveling Germany with kids, this place is worth every penny! For the super fans, they had themes we found no where else (e.g. adventure series at the log ride); and rides that are not found at the US Legolands. Augsburg and Ulm are nearby if you need a culture/ museum break.

We spent lovely 2days here, great experience for us, adults and our kids. We had lovely weather, so a lot of people arrived, and some attractions were crowded, and we had to wait. Luckily it was just occasionally. Plus was Halloween decorations and products that can bring home🎃🎃 Thank you, will come again.

Great place for young kids . We spent one day there , 2 would have been better as we didn’t see everything. Very reasonable as once you pay all the rides are free . Ideal kids age 5-12.
Felicity W — Google review
An absolute dream holiday location for my family and I. My son and daughter loved it, the rides were great, food was good and queues were decent. Staff were very friendly, parking wasn't an issue and having Peppa Pig Park right next door made it ideal for my 2 year old daughter too! It was also great fun for my wife and I. Unforgettable memories were made and we cannot wait to visit once again!
David C — Google review
If you or your kids like LEGO then you must visit, the place is huge and there are a lot of activities for all ages. To really cover it you need at least 2 days to get on most of the rides. The only downside is the large ques that form so you don't like to wait a lot then maybe pay more for the express pass. You can also get tickets online for both the park and the parking which I recommend to save some time.

The Ulmer Rathaus is a beautiful and historic building right in the heart of Ulm. Its colorful façade, covered in detailed paintings and decorations, really stands out and gives you a glimpse into the city’s rich past. It’s one of those places you can’t help but stop to admire when walking through the old town. The mix of Gothic and Renaissance architecture makes it even more interesting. It’s definitely worth seeing, especially if you enjoy history or old European buildings.

This is a very impressive and magnificently preserved building. I am proud to be able to make this comment after experiencing it myself several times. If you are curious, please visit. The food is delicious, the service is fast. Very high quality black beer is served inside. The outside is full of handmade figures. Hz. Ibrahim Sacrifice incident is depicted. Jesus Christ is also shown. dating from the 1300s. Even the Ottoman coat of arms is present in the frescoes.

No visitor misses the 3 most important hotspots of Ulm - the Münster, the "Schiefe Haus" and the very special "Rathaus" with its colorful paintings and details. Almoust like a huge history book, these paintings, writings and coat of arms tell a lot about Ulm's past - if you have the time, join one of the guided tours. The active townhall interior is nice, but renovated - the storytelling outside and especially the huge and complex astronomical clock is worth the visit on the way down to the Danube or Fischerviertel.

Located in the fishing district near the Danube, Schwörhaus is a captivating red and yellow baroque building from the 17th century. Today, it serves as the city museum. Every year, the elected mayor takes an oath here in front of residents. The building holds historical significance and houses an intriguing archive that tells the impressive story of Ulm. It's not only a great place to explore Ulm's history but also offers a glimpse into its oldest building.
Every year, the mayor comes out to promise to his people various stuff. I never believe his words and probably never will, because he is telling truth only 80% of the time, but the building still looks cool!

Ulm Minster

Mentioned on 
+25 other lists 
Lutheran church
Sights & Landmarks
The Ulmer Münster is a Lutheran church built in Gothic style, located in the heart of Ulm City. It boasts the world's tallest steeple at 161.53 meters high and features an impressive carved choir. The church is considered a must-visit landmark in Germany, offering visitors a glimpse into the Middle Ages with its lovely Gothic architecture.
I visited the Ulm Minster on my birthday and it was such a special experience. The structure is absolutely breathtaking – you can’t help but be amazed by how tall and detailed it is. I found out it’s actually the tallest church in the world, with a spire reaching about 161 meters high! It took several centuries to complete, starting in the 14th century and finally finishing in the late 1800s. Walking around the cathedral, I was blown away by the gothic architecture and how well-preserved everything is. The inside is peaceful and beautiful, and just standing there made me feel so small in the best way. I didn’t climb the tower this time, but even from the outside, it’s super impressive. If you’re ever in Ulm, you must visit this place. It made my birthday truly memorable. Totally worth it! 😊
Pankaj S — Google review
Every nice church. This church has the tallest tower in the world. You can pay 7 Euros and walk all the way to the top. Please ensure that you are semi fit....it is a long and winding staircase of over 750 steps. But the view is worth it. They are currently doing some restorations to the church so please bear with the noise.
Lewis M — Google review
Ulm Minster is breathtaking both inside and out. The Gothic architecture is incredibly detailed, and the interior is full of history — especially the 15th-century choir stalls with their intricate wood carvings. The highlight, of course, is climbing the tallest church spire in the world. It’s 768 steps up a narrow staircase, but the panoramic view over the city and, on clear days, even the Alps, makes it worth every step. Inside, the atmosphere is peaceful and bright, with beautiful stained-glass windows and an impressive organ. The Münsterplatz around the church is also lively, with cafés and markets (the Christmas market here is fantastic). Be prepared: the tower climb is steep and not for everyone, but if you can manage it, it’s unforgettable. Overall, Ulm Minster is one of Germany’s greatest landmarks. Highly recommended!

Sarath P — Google review
Ulm Minster is an absolute must-see — not only for its record-breaking spire, but also for the sense of calm and beauty it offers. It’s very easy to reach, just a short and pleasant walk from Ulm’s main train station through the charming old town. When I visited, there was some ongoing renovation work, with padding and scaffolding around the front and upper sections, which did slightly spoil the full view of the façade. However, the minor distraction did not take away from the overall experience — once you step inside, the atmosphere completely changes. The city’s noise fades away, replaced by a deep sense of peace and stillness. Whether you’re interested in history, architecture, or simply looking for a quiet moment of reflection, Ulm Minster is a beautiful and easily accessible place to visit.
Girish V — Google review
The Ulm Minster is absolutely breathtaking and a must-see if you visit Ulm. Its towering spire — the tallest church tower in the world — dominates the skyline and offers incredible views if you climb to the top. The interior is just as impressive, with beautiful stained glass windows and a peaceful, majestic atmosphere. You can really feel the history and craftsmanship that went into every detail. Whether you’re interested in architecture, history, or just want a stunning view over the city, the Ulm Minster is unforgettable.

The Steiff Museum is a must-visit for families traveling on the A7 or A8. It offers an interactive experience with a stuffed toy hunt, 'petting zoo', workshops, and a huge slide. The museum showcases animals in various sizes and is enjoyable for both kids and adults. Visitors can also explore the outlet for good deals before purchasing from the store next to the museum. The tour includes a German voice-over of Margaret Steiff's life story and magical stories with soft toys.
one of our wishlist checked! since my daughter born, we're becoming Steiff fans. Finally today we were there (saturday) around 13 o'clock. There are only few people there, so we can enjoy the tour and the museum itself, and also the kids can play in the kids area. its really nice..the tour was memorable..not only the kids also for adults..

(Translated by Google) We finally went there as a family today. We weren't disappointed - in advance IMPORTANT 🚨🚨🚨 This year, the last tours are being offered; according to the provider, there will be no more tours after that. 🚨🚨🚨 There are two different tour lengths. We chose a date online and paid immediately via PayPal. It worked great. There's an option to stay and eat on-site. 🥘 But we didn't do this. When we registered, which was quick, we received wristbands. (Paid 🤪) We were then allowed to walk the route to the starting point 🏃, which is extremely beautiful in the surrounding area. When we arrived, we were given instructions and then allowed to start. (Life jackets for children are provided.) The trip itself was fun, of course - there were a few small rapids in the sections that were really fun. 🚨We recommend wearing water shoes and avoiding carrying unnecessary items unless they are waterproof. 🚨 (Original) Wir waren heute als Familie endlich dort. Wurden nicht enttäuscht - vorab WICHTIG 🚨🚨🚨 dieses Jahr werden die letzten Touren angeboten danach wird es keine Touren mehr laut Anbieter geben. 🚨🚨🚨 Es gibt zwei verschiedene Tourenlängen. Wir haben uns online einen Termin ausgesucht und gleich bezahlt per Paypal hat super funktioniert. Vorort gibt es eine Möglichkeit zu verweilen und zu essen. 🥘 Haben dies aber nicht gemacht. Bei unserer Anmeldung die schnell vonstatten ging haben wir Armbändchen bekommen. (Bezahlt 🤪) Wir durften dann die Strecke zum Startpunkt laufen 🏃 die äußerst schön ist in der Umgebung. Als wir angekommen sind wurden wir eingewiesen und durften dann auch starten. ( Schwimmweste für Kinder bekommt man gestellt) Die Fahrt an sich hat natürlich auch Spaß gemacht - in den Abschnitten waren ein paar kleinere Stromschnellen die richtig Spaß gemacht haben. 🚨Es empfiehlt sich Wasserschuhe zu tragen und möglichst keine unnötigen Gegenstände mit sich zu führen - außer sie sind wasserdicht. 🚨

Specialty Museums
Model railway exhibits from the renowned manufacturer, covering 1000 square meters, plus a shop.
Really enjoyed my time at the museum. The many well executed interactive elements (some with high educational value also) and Märklin showcasing their long history of toys besides model trains makes it a museum worth visiting for the whole family.
Sander H — Google review
This is set out on 3 floors. The first being a shop floor with a cafe. The second floor is part of the museum and is more like a historical look back at some of the products and toys this brand has made and sold. Finally the third floor is where all the model trains are kept (Behind plexiglass) For many people who are into trains, this will undoubtedly be a pleasant place to visit. My only concern is the high entrance fee to visit the 2 floors which are essentially a brands selection of previous products (a show room) and so the 10 euro per adult fee seemed disproportionate for what it was. Sure it’s a nice place to visit, and those with a keen interest in trains and train models should really enjoy this. But i can’t see the value in relation to the cost and what was on show. I personally think the first floor (no charge) is the best option and skip paying the high fees to visit upstairs.
Mrs R — Google review
So cool lots of cool things to see. So much history about model railroad hobbies. There's lots to see and do here make sure you have at least an hour to view the museum. And more if you want to go see the HO layout in the basement. If you are in the area definitely check it out 10/10

The Buildings are fully accessible with a very wide stepless entrance. It's very well laid out with good space between the display cases, there are toilets and lockers behind the Technical Desk.

Schloss Lichtenstein

Castle
Sights & Landmarks
Historical landmark
19th-century, cliff-top castle, inspired by a novel, with a chapel & courtyard, plus regular tours.
Parking was amazingly affordable. We loved the availability of places to eat and drink near the castle. For us, this is part of the total experience. The castle itself is beautiful and in a very scenic location. The one downside is the lack of at least one English language tour on the weekend days.
Mark A — Google review
It was cheap to just walk around on the inside for 5 Euros and pay extra to get the tour. I thought that was great that they gave you options. They had a nice store right in-front with food and sold goodies at the ticket booth. Great information booklet in English. And the views were spectacular. Car parking was only 2 Euro and they had lots of various walking areas.
Grace M — Google review
Schloss Lichtenstein feels like something straight out of a fairytale. Built right on the edge of a cliff, the way it sits perched above the valley is absolutely stunning. As you walk up to it, the first thing that strikes you is how dramatic the setting is — the castle looks almost like it’s growing out of the rock itself. Once you’re there, you can’t help but admire the views that open up all around you. The castle isn’t as large as some of the other well-known German castles, but that’s exactly what gives it so much charm. Its smaller size and unique location make it feel intimate and magical at the same time. Walking around, you get the sense of stepping into a storybook, with every angle offering another perfect picture. Compared to other castles I’ve visited in Germany, Schloss Lichtenstein stands out because of its setting. While Hohenzollern impresses with its grand scale and history, Lichtenstein wins you over with its fairytale look and the way it blends into the cliffside. The combination of scenery, architecture, and atmosphere makes it unforgettable. It’s one of those places where you stop, take your time, and just enjoy the moment. For me, visiting Schloss Lichtenstein was a highlight, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone who wants to experience a castle that looks like it was lifted straight from the pages of a fairytale.
Rafi S — Google review
Can a book inspire you enough to build a castle based on the book's description? I can clearly understand the feelings of Wilhelm von Urach who was mesmerized by Wilhelm Hauff's book "Lichtenstein" at the point that he ordered to build that castle. This is the essence of the era of German Romanticism – a dream of the times of medieval castles, knights and chivalry. The castle itself is magnificent: it rises directly from the cliff, immediately creating an atmosphere of medieval times. The suspension bridge can rise at any moment, blocking the path to the impregnable castle, while the princess has fallen in enchanted sleep... The exteriors are stunning, you might want to plan more than 3 hours for castle visiting. Don't miss the wooden sculpture of Wilhelm Albert von Urach on the road to the castle. The exteriors can be visited only with guided tour, which lasts around 30 minutes (on German or English, flyers provided). The entrance fee is now 14 euros (it was 12 in May 2024). Taking photos inside is strictly prohibited, which is very unfortunate, as the 193cm long champagne glass looks amazing, as well as the armory and weapons, wooden furniture, decorated walls and painted ceilings. The stained glass in the chapel is interesting, too. The other unfortunate thing is the transport communication. The bus goes to the castle only on Sundays, while on working days you will need to find your way to the castle and from it through the forest where no signs can be found (route from road L230). On the official website of the castle you can find the maps of the tracking paths, but there's no mention about the Honau track being unpassable because of numerous fallen trees. It's humid and slippery in the forest even on warm and dry weather. And again, no signs whatsoever. There is a parking area (2€ for the whole day) very close to the castle, so I strongly recommend reaching to the castle by car. TIP: Don't forget to visit the ruins of Alt Lichtenstein, they are close to the Lichtenstein castle and offer a beautiful view. P.S. Drones are prohibited in the area.

Lovely gothic castle, worth a visit. We didn't go inside because we had our dog with us, but the outside views and courtyard were worth the very reasonable entry price. Loved the little statues hidden around! Service at the café outside was friendly and the coffee was good too.

An absolutely stunning castle with incredible views! The location on the cliff is breathtaking, and the architecture looks straight out of a fairytale. It’s a beautiful place to wander around, take photos, and just enjoy the atmosphere. Definitely a must-see if you’re nearby! There is a large parking lot nearby to drive up to the castle that costs €2 (you can pay cash to the parking attendant or with card at the nearby cafe if you do not have cash) There’s a small fee to enter the castle grounds, which I found totally worth it for the views alone. You can also pay extra for a guided tour inside the castle, but I just explored the outside area and still had a great experience. I wouldn’t buy tickets in advance, the line at the ticket desk goes down quickly and it’s worth the wait!
Jack F — Google review
Here are a few tips on how to go to the caste with public transport. On Sundays and holidays there are busses that take you directly to the castle without any hiking needed. These busses don’t show in the Google maps, you can check the times using the DB app. It is very easy and simple to find the bus. If you go on a day without a bus directly to the castle, then you need to do the 30min hike. It starts from the bus stop in Honau. The hike to the castle is very easy. A normal active person can do it fine. It is just a trail inside the forest. There was a fallen tree in the middle of the trail, making it a little difficult, but was ok. If you are with kids or with a girlfriend then it is not recommend to take the trail as the fallen tree part is a bit tricky. But if you are a group of guys, go for it! Go get the famous picture of the castle you need to pay to get in the yard (5 Euros). To get inside the castle you also need to pay (More 8 Euros). *I don’t remember the prices exactly. I recommend doing the small tour inside the castle. It was very fun and interesting. The guide was a lady and she did an amazing job! Lastly there are a few restaurants up there and also a big parking lot for cars.
Ricardo F — Google review
Beautiful little castle and rivals Neuschwanstein for that fairy tale style castle feel. The only down side to our visit is that we booked the tour and we were handed a English pamphlet to read as the tour was conducted in German only - except for the guide telling us not to take any pictures inside the castle in English. It was neat to see the interior but wish the guide would did a little bit of it in English or had a separate tour like other stops.

A truly enjoyable experience and one of the better thermal spa destinations I’ve visited! The complex is spacious, well-maintained, and offers plenty of amenities for a full day of relaxation. The outdoor pool with its swirling current effect is a highlight—both relaxing and fun. The water has a slightly salty taste, adding to the natural and therapeutic feel. The facility is modern and thoughtfully designed, with excellent accessibility for people with special needs. Everything is clean, and the staff is friendly and professional. I highly recommend visiting, whether as part of a weekend wellness getaway or a day trip. For thermal spa lovers—this place is a real gem!

I love this therme. It’s clean. Lots of options from nice pools, saunas, salt room and chairs to relax on. The view is beautiful and always enjoy a nice meal when there. I can’t fault this place at all. It’s one of my favorites in the Stuttgart area.

This place is brilliant. Staff are great and have limited English but they still tried and it's much better than my non existent German. So you pay and they give you a watch which controls the gate to get in and exit. It also locks and unlocks the lockers which is smart You get into a changing cubicle get changed and exit out the other side where the lockers are. Put your stuff in and follow the crowd. If you have never been to a public bath it's good etiquette to wash first before getting into any of the pools. There's quite a lot to choose from in various different temperatures so you'll find one that will suit you The most fun one is the whirlpool where you just grab a foam stick wrap it around you and the water will carry you around the large pool where there are various jets that can massage you. 13 euros for 2 1/2 hours which I think is plenty is pretty cheap . There's also saunas but you will have to go in stark naked. Thoroughly recommended

Nice shopping spot - lots of shops, very well organized and easily accessible. There are a lot of parking spaces. Toilets are accessible and very clean. Everything is organized in such a way that you don't worry about anything and just do your shopping. For the shops themselves I would say that for some things I usually find better deals online. However, there are a lot of people who prefer shopping from outlets.

A large shopping center with many world-class brand stores at reasonable prices. There is a list of all stores in the photos. Parking is not a problem, there are many parking garages and parking areas. There are cafes, restaurants and bistros. They do their best to ensure the satisfaction of visitors.

The OUTLETCITY in Metzingen is one of the big down in Germany. The products are made in china or Africa and the prices are sky-high. The restaurant food is overpriced and even the drinking water is not affordable in this summer and charging 3 euros for a small pet bottle. The Drinks wending machine is not working and you need to buy from only those restaurants.

Amazing place it is like a village and offers everything (food, coffee, drinks etc.) I couldn’t say that the discounts worth the visit as it is an average 30% minus the initial price. You have to search a lot to find a real offer. It ils also really crowded but that is normal for a place like this. I couldn’t imagine that you have to pay parking fee (2€/hour!!!) in a city outlet where you go to spend money for sure 👎

Best place for shopping, has plenty of parking spot and variety of brands on same street.

The best outlet I’ve been to in Germany. Huge selection of stores and very very large campus to walk around. Loved it. Great deals and I love that they have a midnight shopping event once a month usually, where they stay open till very late at night.
Melissa R — Google review
Good area for shopping brands, sometimes discount mentioned with up to % can be misleading. On weekends or during holidays it is hard to find parking which are close to the shopping area.

Esslingen Market Square

Market
Shopping
Esslingen Market Square is a charming open-air marketplace located just 15 minutes from Stuttgart by local train. The square hosts a medieval market with merchants wearing traditional clothing and demonstrating medieval crafts like glassblowing. Visitors can enjoy artists, music, food, and holiday events. The Christmas Market is particularly enchanting with detailed decorations and people dressed in beautiful medieval costumes, creating a unique atmosphere that transports you back in time.
The starting point for the local Christmas Market if arriving from the Esslingen Neckar Train Station on day trip from Stuttgart. Stalls here are beautifully setup with Christmas theme with charming building framing the market.

Esslingen Market Square is surrounded by stunning half-timbered houses and historic buildings, it offers a perfect blend of medieval charm and modern vibrancy. The market square is home to cozy cafés, local shops, and seasonal events that bring the town to life.

A very nice walk thru and old city any time of year. We went on a warm October day and had a good time. Lots of cafes, shops, and bakeries with good coffee and food.

Beautiful town. We were lucky to be there for the summer festival.

If there’s one place that captures the soul of Esslingen, it’s the Marktplatz — a broad, picture-perfect square framed by half-timbered houses, each one looking like it belongs on the cover of a fairytale book. The colors, the angles, the rooftops — everything here feels timeless. On a Sunday, though, the vibe completely changes. The usually buzzing square slows down into something beautifully calm and reflective. Most of the shops are closed, and you can finally hear the fountain trickling and the bells from the nearby Frauenkirche echoing through the air. Locals stroll quietly, couples sit on benches with coffee to-go, and the café terraces — the few that open on Sundays — become little pockets of lazy contentment. Without the weekday rush, you start noticing the details — the ornate carvings on the old guild houses, the contrast between pastel facades and the red roofs, and the way the square gently slopes toward the church. If you stand in the middle and spin slowly, you’ll see centuries of history in one 360° view — it’s that kind of place. And when the sun’s out, the light hits the buildings just right, creating this warm, honey-colored glow that’s pure cinematic gold. Photographers love it, and honestly, it’s hard to take a bad shot here.

Stopped by for an afternoon during the recent Estival, Jazz and Weiss Beer in the sunshine. Knew nothing about the Estival before seeing the advertising at Tram stations in Stuttgart the night before. Hopefully visit again for the Christmas market.

I was here for the Christmas Market and it îs a beautiful medieval market with very good vibe and food. The only suggestion is to go durring the day cause at night it is overcrowded and the lights are not worth it.Awesome place, much nicer than the Stuttgart one.

Esslingen am Neckar Castle

Mentioned on 
3 lists 
Historical landmark
Sights & Landmarks
Points of Interest & Landmarks
Esslingen am Neckar Castle is a historic site with a courtyard garden that offers sweeping views of Esslingen. The long flight of stairs on the city wall provides breathtaking views over the city and vineyards, especially when dusted in snow. The town itself is magical with cobblestone streets, gingerbread-style houses, and stunning vistas. Visitors can enjoy a cozy staircase leading to a good restaurant and a large free valley for relaxation.
The view over the city is stunning. If you prefer, there’s also a bus that can take you up, but climbing the steps makes the experience much more special. A great spot to explore, relax, and take beautiful photo..☺️

Lovely old castle and worth a visit for the views alone! Google maps sends you the ' stairs ' way! This is a steep climb up about 300 stairs? ( We meant to go back for a picture of them but forgot! ) Otherwise you can go up the roads to it. Like I said the views are spectacular and it's free! There's a restaurant up there too but I'm guessing you might need to book?

Great view of Esslingen. As people have mentioned, it requires a great deal of steps to clib. I recommend taking the bus 110 from the station up to the castle. After experiencing the wonderful view, you can take the stairs back down into the town.

Great view of the city. Beatiful structure and gardens. A little over 300 steps to get up there, totally worth the climb. I wish it was possible to access inside the tower.
João R — Google review
Beautiful setting for photos and views above Esslingen. The stairs are tough but make for a good workout before heading to the farmers market in town. One note, it doesn't appear you can actually go inside the main tower
