The Documentation Center Nazi Party Rally Grounds in Nuremberg is a striking example of architecture repurposed for learning, offering deep insights into the history of the Nazi regime. Currently undergoing major renovations to enhance accessibility and exhibitions, the renewed spaces is scheduled to be completed in 2026.

It's my second time visiting this complex and I can highly recommend it. This time, I found out that the museum itself has been closed for several years already due to extensive renovations. Unfortunately this wasn't very clear online and when you get there the signage isn't very clear either - we walked right past the containerized ticket booth because when you walk towards the building from the parking lot, you can't see the signage. However, visiting the special exhibition was worth it. It's immensely important to expose yourself to our history - maybe one day we will learn?

Pavi0208 — Google review
Worth a visit. They are currently renovating and I expect that the updated museum will be excellent. No real signage for the other outdoor paths and buildings. We saw the interim exhibit and it was quite complete. €5 cash to park. Couple this site with the Nuremberg Court Rooms. (Make sure to pay the street parking fee as a whole line of cars got ticketed outside the court room.)

Castle

Museum
The Imperial Castle of Nuremberg, also known as Kaiserburg, is a majestic 11th-century castle complex that includes a royal palace and gardens. Perched on a sandstone cliff overlooking the city, it is divided into three parts: the imperial castle Kaiserburg, noble buildings in Burggrafenburg, and other structures to the east in stadtische Burganlage.
One of the most well kept castles for its size and age. Not a lot of English info so prepare to get the audio guide if you want to know more about the castle. Had fun climbing the tower and the views of Nuremberg were unmatched!
Elle F — Google review
One of the iconic castles of Germany, with loads of imperial connections, and well worth braving the rather steep ascent (the views are great, too). Part of the fortifications that lure you up are actually the city wall, not the castle proper, but the overall effect is what counts. If you are spendthrift, skip the castle interior (interesting, but nor overwhelming), and definitely do not eat there (much better value can be found around the nearby Dürerhaus or in town).
Bernd B — Google review
Definitely worth the price of admission. Lots of walking so wear good shoes. Make sure to check out the bridge near the bus drop-off point for the best view. No photography once you are inside. The castle is fabulous. There are bathrooms and a small Cafe inside. Get there early to avoid the crowd.
Mike R — Google review
Nuremberg Castle Beautiful castle with great panoramic views of the city! 🏰✨ The climb up gives you a bit of a sweat, but totally worth it once you reach the top — the scenery is amazing. Perfect spot for photos and enjoying the old-town vibe from above.
Subencha P — Google review
From other reviews, didn't believe there'd be a lot of items to see in the museum. Was very surprised at the amount of historical items and information provided. The views of the city were fantastic along with the historic background. Very easy walk even inside the museum and inner grounds. I highly recommend to anyone visiting.

The Imperial Castle is the symbol of Nuremberg. Since the Middle Ages its silhouette has represented the power and importance of the Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation and the outstanding role of the imperial city of Nuremberg. From 1050 to 1571, all Holy Roman Emperors resided – at least temporarily – in the Imperial Castle. An archeological exploration of the grounds of the castle has revealed remains of a fortress.

ibis Bamberg Altstadt

Mentioned on

Hotel
Sights & Landmarks
Historic Sites
The Ibis Bamberg Altstadt is a laid-back hotel with basic rooms and a 24-hour snack bar. Despite being centrally located, it offers a quiet atmosphere, making it convenient for exploring the nearby attractions on foot. The hotel's proximity to the Hoffmann Theatre makes it easily accessible. Guests can enjoy clean and functional facilities, although some found the bathrooms to be small. The hotel also offers underground parking for a fee, which was appreciated by guests during busy times such as the Christmas Market.
Sweet little hotel with a very friendly personal and a nice view from the 4th floor! Perfect for visiting Bamberg for a few days or just a weekend. The location couldn’t be better - it’s in the heart of the city and still very quiet.
Georgi G — Google review
Location is the only good about this place. Rooms are really small, I mean REALLY small. I've booked a room with separeted beds, got a double. When I got back the reception, to have it as I booked, the receptionis said this is all the rooms like, sepearate the beds. Yeah, maybe I should bend the space, so it would have enough room for it. We were there for 3 nights, the room never got cleaned. The whole place could use a renovation. Breakfast was ok, not good, just ok. Staff is below ok. For this price it is expensive.

Sharadkumar J — Google review
The only modern/budget hotel in the old town. Ask for rooms facing the street side (better view) and ending in 15 or 19 (larger). Not the best Ibis shower that I know (they're generally excellent), the shower floor levels with the bathroom (don't wash too enthusiastically), and there's a GREY shower curtain that doesn't let light it (now that's a first-timer!).
HERM P — Google review
My husband and I arrived, during Christmas Market time. The concierge's name was Abdullah, who was very professional, personable and helpful. This hotel was close to the festivities and had underground parking. Parking fee was $20 euro for the parking, which was convenient not trying to find parking elsewhere or the possibility of walking long distances, with suitcases. The room and bathroom were very clean, location mostly quiet (in the middle of the night, there were people smoking and speaking loudly outside, which wasn't the hotel's fault), beds and pillows were comfortable and the temperature pleasant. If one didn't want to eat at the hotel, Cafe Luitpold was nearby with a delicious, fresh and nutritious breakfast. If we would travel again to Bamberg, we would consider this hotel again.
Kelly R — Google review
The central location is by far the best feature is this Ibis Bamberg Altstadt - you are just five minutes waking from Altes Rathaus, in the heart of the old town. The installations are very clean and functional. The bathroom is extremely small and they charge for the subterranean parking, which is something I didn’t see in the website. But anyway, in terms of cost benefit, it is definitely well worth.
Flavio P — Google review
Everything was great here!!! Breakfast, Clean rooms, quiet warm place, park for additional Euros, but not much. Excellent Staff service as they are very nice and kind. The location is another great item, very close to the most popular city tourist attractions. I do recommend it.
Rodrigo C — Google review
Historic house well located in the center with friendly staff. While rooms are clean and big enough, they lack atmosphere (I guess that can be expected from an Ibis?) and some maintenance (dents in furniture, plastic covers of light switch and remote control broken,...). Breakfast is OK to good, paid parking available and WiFi is slow (unless you pay extra).

LEGOLAND Germany

Theme park
Water & Amusement Parks
Amusement park
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.

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.

Würzburg Residence

Sights & Landmarks
Historical landmark
The Würzburg Residence is a must-see attraction in the city, known for its opulent 18th-century palace and formal gardens. This UNESCO World Heritage Site showcases magnificent Baroque architecture and lush surroundings. The palace, built between 1719 and 1744 under the patronage of the Prince-Bishops of Würzburg, boasts intricate stuccoes, lavish furnishings, and an impressive fresco by Giovanni Battista Tiepolo.
Gorgeous rococo. Twice a day English tours but the tour is not really necessary. The small von Wagner museum is worth a quick stop (it's free) and the church is small but pretty. There is a tourist town bus that stops outside the Residence during summer months. There are no online tickets sales or time slots.
Kate J — Google review
The decorations were wonderful, and the optical illusions on the ceiling were so impressive that I could have mistaken them for real sculptors. I took a guided tour in English, and they explained every detail, which was very educational. Towards the end of the tour, there were photos of the building that were devastated during World War II, and I was impressed by how well it had been restored.
Taka N — Google review
An absolute masterpiece — easily one of the most breathtaking palaces in all of Germany. The Würzburg Residence is the kind of place that stops you in your tracks the moment you walk in. Even if you’ve visited other European palaces, this one has a unique elegance — a perfect blend of Bavarian grandeur, Italian influence, and French sophistication. The scale, the symmetry, the attention to detail… everything feels world-class. The highlight is undeniably the grand staircase with Tiepolo’s famous ceiling fresco. It’s massive, vibrant, and so full of movement that you could stare at it for ages. The fact that it survived WWII feels almost miraculous. Every room that follows — from the mirrored hall to the intricate salons — feels like stepping deeper into a story where every wall, every frame, every piece of décor has something to say. The flow of the visit is smooth, the staff are friendly, and the signage makes it easy to understand the historical context without feeling overwhelmed. Photography restrictions apply in some areas, but honestly, that makes you focus on the craft and artistry even more. The gardens are another highlight. Perfectly manicured and incredibly serene, they create a stunning contrast with the palace’s ornate interior. If the weather is good, take your time — the angles for photos are endless. In spring and summer, it’s absolutely magical. Overall, the Würzburg Residence is a must-visit. It’s grand, inspiring, beautifully preserved, and one of the crown jewels of Franconian history. A true UNESCO treasure and an unforgettable experience.
Ronnie P — Google review
The Würzburg Residence is an absolute marvel—both architecturally and atmospherically. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, it stuns with its grandeur even before you step inside. The perfectly symmetrical façade, elegant domes, and sweeping gardens immediately signal that you’ve arrived somewhere truly special. Inside, the lavish interiors are almost overwhelming in their beauty. The Baroque and Rococo details, particularly in the chapel and ceremonial rooms, are full of intricate marble, gold leaf, and awe-inspiring ceiling frescoes. You could stand there for hours just admiring the craftsmanship. But what truly sets this place apart is the Residence Garden. It’s a quiet sanctuary right in the heart of the city. The sculpted hedges, fountains, and graceful statues are all arranged with such harmony that walking through the paths feels like stepping into a painting. Whether you’re sitting in the shade of an old tree or admiring the palace from behind a leafy arch, there’s a calming elegance to every corner. This is not just a site for history or art lovers—it’s a peaceful escape where you can slow down, breathe, and enjoy beauty at your own pace.

This is a unesco world heritage site. Very well maintained especially given that it was damaged during the second world war. The key highlights are the glass room, ceiling art and the gardens. The total visit time would be 2-3 hrs. Do spend time in the gardens. The rooms can feel repetitive after a while with the same greek themed tapestries

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! 😊

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.

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!

Ulm Minster is an awe-inspiring masterpiece of Gothic architecture and holds the distinction of having the 2nd tallest church tower in the world. Standing at 161.53 meters. It's interior is very impressive and magnificent with stained glass window and majestic Hall.

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.

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 Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart is a true architectural and historical masterpiece, offering an immersive journey that appeals far beyond just automotive enthusiasts. It is, without a doubt, one of the best corporate museums in the world and a must-visit landmark in Germany. Brilliant Architecture and Chronological Design The building's ingenious double-helix architecture guides the visitor through time. You ascend to the top floor—the birth of the automobile—and then spiral down through nine levels, witnessing 130 years of history unfold chronologically. This unique design ensures a seamless and captivating flow. The lighting, presentation, and curation of the exhibits are world-class, giving every vehicle, from Karl Benz's first patent motor car to the modern F1 racers, the reverence it deserves. Innovation Contextualized in World History What truly elevates this museum is how it integrates the vehicles with parallel world history. Each exhibition floor connects Mercedes-Benz's technical progress with defining moments and culture of that era. You see the evolution of luxury, safety, and racing innovation—including the legendary Silver Arrows and the iconic "Gullwing" models. The sheer volume and diversity of cars, trucks, and prototypes are breathtaking, illustrating Mercedes-Benz's influence on global mobility. Conclusion: For its stunning design, technical depth, and engaging historical context, the Mercedes-Benz Museum is a powerful experience. The exhibition is impeccably maintained, the staff are helpful, and the ticket price offers fantastic value for a deep dive into industrial heritage. Allow at least three to four hours to properly explore this brilliant celebration of engineering. Highly, highly recommended when visiting Stuttgart.

It was a unique experience from my side. After having parked the car, we entered to the museum and took the elevator to the top floor where you are going to start your journey. From classic cars to classic sport cars and from recent road stars to formula cars. I mean simply amazing. The most important thing to do in the city.

⭐ 10/10 — a place I’d gladly visit again I visited the Mercedes-Benz Museum on a Sunday and it turned out to be a great decision. It wasn’t crowded, so I could walk around comfortably and really enjoy the atmosphere. The whole place is extremely clean and well-organized, and you can see how much attention is put into every detail. The audio guide was another highlight: clear, easy to follow, and filled with interesting facts. It doesn’t just talk about cars, but also about the history and the world around the inventions. At some points it genuinely feels like a small time-travel experience. Even if you’re not a big car fan, the museum still has a lot to offer. It tells a wider story about innovation, progress and the people behind it all. Each floor adds something new and keeps you curious. I’m not adding too many photos here because I’d rather keep some intrigue for future visitors. If you’re in Stuttgart, this place is definitely worth a visit. 👉 Highly recommended 👍

The Mercedes-Benz Museum isn't just a place for car enthusiasts; it is a meticulously curated journey through industrial and global history that easily earns its five stars. The experience begins with a profound reverence for innovation, celebrating Mercedes-Benz as the true pioneer of the internal combustion engine—the very invention that birthed the modern automobile in 1886. The cloverleaf architecture is genius, guiding visitors chronologically through the "Legend Rooms." You descend through nine floors of history, witnessing the evolution from the first Patent-Motorwagen to the latest concepts. The promise of the museum holds true: it has all the cars, showcasing an incredible collection of over 160 vehicles, including legendary Silver Arrows, luxurious Popemobiles, and iconic vehicles from every era. What elevates this museum far above others is its educational depth. It skillfully weaves the story of the founders, Carl Benz and Gottlieb Daimler, presenting not just their creations, but the entrepreneurial spirit and visionary ideas that drove them. Even more impressively, the museum integrates this automotive narrative with the broader history of the world, offering context on social and technological upheavals, allowing you to see how the car shaped (and was shaped by) the events of each period. It is a stunning, comprehensive, and perfectly presented exhibition that honors a legacy of engineering excellence. An absolute essential visit in Stuttgart!
Micu V — Google review
The Mercedes-Benz Museum is nothing short of extraordinary—a world-class experience that blends automotive history, innovation, and storytelling into one unforgettable visit. From the moment you step inside the striking, futuristic building, you’re transported into the rich legacy of one of the world’s most influential automotive brands. What impressed me most was the sheer breadth of historic Mercedes-Benz models on display. The museum takes you on a chronological journey, beginning with the very invention of the automobile and guiding you through decades of engineering achievements, design evolution, and cultural impact. I was genuinely amazed to discover just how deeply Mercedes-Benz has been woven into major historical moments over the years—whether in motorsport, luxury travel, or groundbreaking technological advancements. Each exhibit is thoughtfully curated, offering the perfect blend of information, visuals, and interactive elements. This isn’t just a place for car enthusiasts, though they will certainly be in heaven. It’s an experience the whole family can enjoy. There’s so much to see, explore, and learn that even those who aren’t deeply into cars will find themselves captivated. The museum is spacious, beautifully organized, and designed to keep visitors engaged at every turn. Make sure to give yourself plenty of time—at least a few hours—to truly appreciate everything the museum has to offer. From early prototypes to legendary racing cars, from elegant classics to modern innovations, every level reveals something new and fascinating. Incredible in every sense, the Mercedes-Benz Museum is a must-do for anyone visiting the area. Whether you’re a lifelong fan of the brand or simply curious about automotive history, this museum delivers an experience that is both inspiring and unforgettable. Highly recommended.

We recently had the chance to visit the Porsche Museum in Stuttgart, and it was an incredible experience. The moment you walk in, you're surrounded by a stunning display of design, speed, and innovation that reflects the true **triumph of German engineering**. From the earliest Porsche models to cutting-edge concept cars, every exhibit showcases precision, craftsmanship, and a relentless pursuit of performance. The museum's architecture itself is strikingly modern, mirroring the brand’s forward-thinking spirit. We were especially impressed by the motorsport section, which highlights Porsche’s dominance on the track and the technological breakthroughs behind it. Whether you're a lifelong car fan or just curious, the museum offers a deep appreciation for what makes Porsche — and German engineering as a whole — world-renowned. We left inspired and uplifted especially my husband who is cars enthusiast! Definitely must see!

Enjoy the impressive assortment of Porsches on display for you to admire.

Such a cool experience to be able to go here, loved the interactive bits but the story telling could’ve been done better for Ferdinand Porsche’s life.

The collection is stunning, with so many iconic cars from throughout Porsche’s history displayed in a beautifully curated space. From groundbreaking race cars to legendary road cars, every exhibit highlights the brand’s innovation and engineering excellence. My personal favorites were the Nurburgring record-breaking 919 Evo, which is breathtaking to see up close, and the Carrera GT, a true masterpiece of design and performance. The museum perfectly captures what makes Porsche special, and it’s well worth the trip for any automotive enthusiast.

Beautiful historical site. The Romer still stands in Frankfurt in all its majesty. This medieval building is perhaps the city's most important landmark. In the past it was regarded as the most beautiful square in Germany. Now it is a very popular square and a very good spot for photographs. Romer is the seat of the Frankfurt city administration. There was a sizable crowd there when we went to it. There was also some preparations going on for an upcoming national event.

The Römer is absolutely stunning - a must-see when visiting Frankfurt! The old town square around it is full of charm, with half-timbered houses, cafés, and plenty of photo spots. You really get a feel for the city’s history here. It’s especially nice in the evening when the lights come on, and during the Christmas market it looks magical. Easy to reach by foot or public transport, and there are lots of restaurants nearby. A perfect place to start exploring Frankfurt!

Frankfurt (Main) Hauptbahnhof

Transit station
Sights & Landmarks
Frankfurt (Main) Hbf, the city's grand central station, is a stunning example of Neo-Renaissance architecture and serves as a vital hub for both regional and long-distance travel. Nestled in the heart of Germany, Frankfurt boasts a dynamic blend of modernity and history, making it an exciting destination for travelers. The city’s skyline is impressive, while its rich cultural scene offers diverse culinary delights to explore.
Beautiful but busy train station with vaulted ceilings and awe inspiring architecture. Some cool and fun things to note like the Frankfurt train station sign at the far end and the small toy coin operated train set. Decent food selections. Ticket booths are plentiful, but be aware that there are different ticket machines for different lines. S trains (e.g. to airport) are down below. Train times are fairly accurate. Access through the north, east, and south entrances.

Frankfurt Hauptbahnhof is a huge, bustling station with stunning old architecture blended with modern design.

Frankfurt Hauptbahnhof is a major transportation hub and offers excellent connectivity, quick links to regional trains, long‑distance services, suburban S‑/U‑Bahn lines, and a large selection of food outlets and shops. According to recent rankings it even borders on being one of Europe’s better large stations. On the flip side, the station and especially its surrounding district have mixed reviews: many passengers mention crowding, hygiene issues (including unpleasant odours in some areas), and a part of the neighbourhood that feels somewhat rough after dark. If you’re passing through during the day with luggage and clear destination, it’s very serviceable and worth using. At night or if you plan a long stay in the area, just be a bit cautious.

Frankfurt Central Station is a large train station with attractive architecture and an impressive building. Fortunately, you can find various restaurants and services inside the station. Unfortunately, there are many beggars in the area who constantly ask for money and food. The station itself is relatively clean and organized, but unfortunately, the paths leading to the subway and lower levels often smell of urine. Also, using the restrooms requires payment, and another important point is that the platform (Gleis) for trains can change until the very last minute, so it's recommended to continuously check the platform information until your train arrives. Additionally, the DB information service is always helpful and answers your questions well, and I was satisfied with their service.

This is the main station that serves the Frankfurt city. S Bahn, U Bahn, trams and all long distance regional bahn and IC and ICE trains are staring and ending from here.

Museum
Heidelberg Castle, a 16th-century red sandstone fortress, stands proudly on a hillside overlooking the Altstadt and the Neckar River. Visitors can enjoy guided tours of the castle's interior and marvel at its Renaissance architecture. The castle is accessible via a steep cobbled trail or by taking the Bergbahn cogwheel train from Kornmarkt station.
We took the fernicular up and the ticket included entrance to the castle courtyard, big wine barrel and apothecary museum. If those things don't interest you and you don't mind walking a steep incline to get there, you can explore the castle grounds for free - most of the interior is not accessible to visitors, anyway. There's plenty to see outside, including beautiful views of the river and the old town.
Amy T — Google review
Dating back to the 13th century, this castle is impressive and has a unique architectural character compared with other castles. Several sections have been carefully restored, while others are intentionally kept as ruins, which adds to its atmosphere. You can visit a fascinating pharmacy laboratory museum inside, though access to the other interior areas is unfortunately restricted. The grounds include an enormous garden and provide breathtaking views of the city. Entrance fee is 11,00 € for adults. Walking through the castle and soaking up its centuries-old history was an unforgettable experience.

Very beautiful view over the whole city including the hills, the river, and a breathtaking sunset in the horizon. The garden is sooo big and “instagrammable” with many spots for selfies and photos. The castle is not big but has a beautiful winery, restaurant, small museum, beautiful facade, but most importantly an amazing high terrace overlooking the city. The tickets include a ride on the cable tramway taking you all the way to the tip of the mountain. A beautiful ride and nice view.

This castle truly has a mystic vibe to it! The red-brick theme, and the fact that its in ruins but still very well maintained adds to its appeal. Highly recommend visiting in fall/autumn as it looks super aesthetic with the green-yellow-red-brown leaves all around the magnificent castle! We didn't go inside but just taking a stroll around it and outside was super beautiful and makes for a good outing in Heidelberg!

My recommendation is to take your time and just enjoy the atmosphere as well as to go before the sunset. Highly recommended!

Mainz Cathedral

Mentioned on

Catholic cathedral
Sights & Landmarks
Nestled in the heart of Mainz, the Mainz Cathedral, also known as St. Martin and St. Stephen, is a stunning example of Romanesque architecture that has captivated visitors for centuries. With its impressive six towers reaching towards the sky, this architectural marvel was constructed starting in AD 975 under Archbishop Willigis and draws inspiration from Rome's iconic St. Peter's Basilica.
Mainz Cathedral is truly a masterpiece of Romanesque architecture and a place where you instantly feel the weight of history—and the serenity of the present. From the moment you approach its striking red sandstone façade and soaring towers, the cathedral commands attention. Yet, once inside, what stands out most is the calm and quiet atmosphere. The interior, with its high vaulted ceilings, delicate stained-glass windows, and softly lit chapels, invites reflection and stillness. Each corner offers something unique: from colorful modern stained-glass windows to beautifully preserved medieval sculptures and ornate altars. The cathedral is not only a feast for the eyes but also a deeply spiritual space, whether you’re religious or not. Sitting in the long nave, surrounded by centuries-old stone and gentle candlelight, brings a sense of grounding and peace. A small exhibit area shares more about the cathedral’s long and storied past, and there are plenty of nooks to explore if you enjoy architecture, art, or quiet contemplation. Right in the heart of Mainz, this is a must-visit spot that feels worlds away from the busy streets just outside.

A stunning landmark right at the heart of Mainz! The cathedral is massive and full of history, with its beautiful Romanesque architecture and peaceful atmosphere.

Definitely a must-visit if you’re in Mainz!

Beautiful cathedral. Lovely garden area as you come in. I was in a bit of a hurry so I was not able to figure out how to climb the tower but I hope I can come back sometime and try. Crypt was neat to see. Fun murals of gospel scenes above the clerestory level along the nave. Some interesting sid chapels to include one of the more vibrant colored crucifixion paintings I've seen in a cathedral.

The cathedral is beautiful. I came here on a Thursday afternoon and there was no wait at all and there was minimal people inside. Be careful if there is a service happening and be respectful of the space if so. There is a museum but I didn't go inside there. The architecture in the cathedral is worth the visit to come see. Be aware that as of may 2025 there is major construction happening on the outside of the cathedral so it is covered in scaffolding. Its free to enter the church but donations are welcome. Be prepared to translate most of the signage if you do not speak German. There is a wheelchair ramp going into the main section of the cathedral and the main cathedral floor is flat but all of the side rooms and passageways have steps and are not handicap accessible.

Niederwald Monument

Mentioned on 
+23 other lists 
Cultural landmark
Sights & Landmarks
Perched atop a hill, the Niederwald Monument commemorates the unification of Germany following the Franco-Prussian War. Accessible by foot or cable car, it offers stunning views of the Rhine River and valley below. The monument features an imposing figure of Germania, symbolizing unity and strength. Visitors can take a cable car ride through picturesque vineyards or hike through beech forests to reach this historical site.
I recommend the ring tour but check the times for when the boat runs - they didn't advertise how early the boat stops running even though the tour is officially open until 7 that would never work to complete the tour. I had to take the train back to Rudesheim. The views were stunning, the ice cream and coffee delicious at the top, and the music was fun. The monument is gorgeous.

As we take a moment to reflect, it is essential to honor the brave men and women who fought valiantly for the freedoms we cherish today. Their sacrifices have paved the way for us to enjoy fundamental rights such as freedom of speech and freedom of religion. This remembrance not only deepens our appreciation for our liberties but also inspires us to uphold the values they fought for, ensuring that future generations can experience the same privileges. The Rhine River, with its stunning vistas, offers a picturesque backdrop, especially during the summer months. The lush vineyards that line its banks create a vibrant tapestry of green, while charming towns dot the landscape, each with its unique character. As you gaze upon the river, you can see various cargo ships navigating its waters, transporting goods and adding to the lively atmosphere. The scene is further enhanced by the presence of majestic castles perched on hilltops, standing as timeless guardians of history. Additionally, the region boasts a diverse array of parks, providing serene spaces for relaxation and exploration, making the Rhine a truly enchanting destination.

Wonderful cable car ride from Rudesheim, views of vineyards and surrounding countryside, very peaceful but a bit chilly in the wind. A short walk to the monument, bit of a hill, but worth it. Amazing views of the Rhine and all around, the monument is massive, really impressive and the history (to read on placards) is very interesting. Nice little outdoor takeaway for drinks and snacks, note.. you pay a deposit for proper cups. Restaurant as well but didn't use it. A place well worth seeing!!

We had a good tour up here, we got the ring tickets which included cable car through the vineyard , chairlift and boat back. The view at the monument is beautiful totally worth it and the hike through the forest to the chairlift is good too.

Impressive monument, fun to ride the gondola up there. There is a little restaurant up there. Impressive views! It's worth going up to see. If the weather is good, it is a nice day. We had poor weather so we didn't stay long. You can ride the gondola down (keep your ticket) or walk down through the vineyards.

We visited on a weekend in summer holidays. Took Cable Car to top of the hill. Waiting was around 45 mins. There is also a hiking path. You can either buy cable cat tickets one way or for round trip. Hike trial takes around 90 mins One can also directly visit the spot by car. To enjoy the view cable car is more recommended.

Points of Interest & Landmarks
Deutsches Eck, also known as the German Corner, is a picturesque headland in Koblenz, Germany where the Rhine and Moselle rivers meet. At this historic site stands a 37-meter high equestrian monument of Kaiser Wilhelm I. The city of Koblenz itself is over 2000 years old and is surrounded by beautiful low mountain ranges. It serves as an excellent starting point for exploring the UNESCO World Heritage area of the Rhine Valley and the Mosel Valley.
Definitely worth a visit, probably one of the largest statues in Europe. There is lots in the surrounding areas, cafes just behind. There is access to the fortress within a 5 minute walk and the old town is only a 7 minute walk A must see if visiting the area

Great and large statue with huge area for people to stand, sit, walk by and eat/drink at the numerous food stalls in the vicinity. Nice place and area beside the Moselle (Mosel) river flowing into the Rhine river. Koblenz is very nice river city in Germany not very far from Border city Trier or the country Luxembourg by train.

Deutsches Eck is an absolutely stunning place to visit! The meeting point of the Rhine and Moselle rivers offers breathtaking views, especially at sunset. The atmosphere is peaceful, and there’s a real sense of history surrounding the monument. The area is beautifully maintained, perfect for a relaxing walk or taking photos. It’s also a great spot to sit and enjoy an ice cream while watching the boats pass by. Whether you’re a local or just visiting, this iconic landmark is truly unforgettable. Highly recommended!

If you are visiting Koblenz, this is a must-see place. It's in all honesty nothing that spectacular. The monument (covered elsewhere) is, but this is just a lovely bit of space, made extra special as it's the confluence of the two rivers. Just take time to appreciate the views of the water, the castle, and of course the (spectacular) monument.
Phil B — Google review
It's worth visiting. You can see the colour difference of Rein and Mossel coming together at this place, go with a cable car to the fortress (a lot of expositions included in the entrance ticket. The view of Koblenz from the fortress is very nice.

Sixty-three steps to climb to the highest point of this humongous monument to Whilelm 1, which was much bigger than I thought it would be, situated at the land jutting into the confluence of the Rhein & Mosel Rivers. Wonderful views of the fortress, the Basilica, and the actual joining of rivers. A must/ see on Koblenz.

Cathédrale Notre-Dame-de-Strasbourg

Mentioned on 
+100 other lists 
Cathedral
Sights & Landmarks
The Cathédrale Notre-Dame-de-Strasbourg is a stunning Gothic edifice that dates back to the 1200s and features a remarkable 16th-century astronomical clock and a beautiful rose window. Its iconic 142-meter spire can be seen towering over the city's rooftops, making it an unmissable landmark.
I visited the cathedral on a schools trip and it was amazing. The fog on that day made the spire disappear into the clouds which was very cool. The inside was also beautiful, and the large clock was meant to have an animated show happen at 2:00 but it was a little disappointing, with the bell just ringing twice, and that was it. But everything else was spectacular. 👍

Strasbourg Cathedral is an awe-inspiring masterpiece of Gothic art. Its soaring spire and intricate facade leave you speechless before you even step inside. The stained glass glows with breathtaking color and detail. The atmosphere inside is both grand and deeply spiritual. A visit here is unforgettable—a true jewel of Europe.

Architectural wonders. I really surprised and wondered on this cathedral architecture. It amazing and look very nice. There is no entrance fee. But there is security and he will check your bags. Inside of the cathedral is also great. You will enjoy it. Everything about this cathedral is displayed on the screen inside the cathedral that really valuable. Not too crowded if you have patience you may get nice photos of the cathedral. In side there is clock and its make bell on specific time.

The overall experience is good but was busy. So many people always in the way. The history of it being built was very interesting. It's amazing that structures can remain in the same location basically untouched for such a long time. The clock in the back is a highlight that you don't see in any other churches.

The Strasbourg Cathedral is an absolute masterpiece of Gothic architecture and one of the most stunning landmarks in Europe. Its intricate stone façade, towering spire, and detailed sculptures leave you in awe from the moment you see it. Inside, the soaring nave, beautiful stained-glass windows, and the famous astronomical clock are simply breathtaking. You can climb to the top for a panoramic view of Strasbourg and the surrounding Alsace region — the climb is worth it, though there are sometimes long queues, especially on weekends and holidays. The cathedral is surrounded by charming squares and streets, making it a perfect spot to explore, take photos, and enjoy the city’s historic atmosphere. A must-visit for anyone in Strasbourg — whether you’re a history buff, architecture lover, or just looking for a spectacular view!

On a foggy morning in November we o pop aid a visit to the Notre Dame Cathedral in Strasbourg. We missed the morning opening time so we made sure we were standing in line for the afternoon opening hours. The queue, although long, moved quickly, and once inside we could see all of the stained glass windows and the mechanical clock in the far corner. We were there when the clock struck one o’clock - so not much movement on the animated figures at the top of the clock! The cathedral is worth a visit - even in winter!
Annette K — Google review
Strasbourg’s iconic cathedral is truly breathtaking. From the outside, you can admire the magnificence of Gothic architecture in every detail. The massive towers and finely carved stone decorations are mesmerizing. Once inside, the peaceful atmosphere immediately surrounds you; the colorful light filtering through the stained-glass windows gives the cathedral a mystical feeling. Climbing up the tower is a bit challenging, but the view makes it absolutely worth it. You can see the rooftops of the city, the Rhine River, and the Alsace landscape stretching far into the distance. The astronomical clock inside the cathedral is also a must-see – both historically and technically fascinating. Whether during the day or illuminated at night, the cathedral offers a unique beauty in every moment. It’s not only a religious site but also a cultural and historical treasure. Anyone visiting Strasbourg should definitely make time to see it

We came for the Luminous exhibition in the evening. It was very beautiful, colorful and joyful with the show and the music in the background also was so beautiful. If you come for the show better come at least 20 minutes early to pick up the good seat. Totally recommend the show !

Mont Sainte-Odile is a truly magical and spiritual place in Alsace. Perched high on a mountain, the monastery offers breathtaking views across the Rhine plain, the Black Forest, and even to the Vosges peaks.

Cochem Castle, also known as Reichsburg Cochem, is a stunning 11th-century hill-top castle offering panoramic views of the town and the Moselle River. Although much of the original structure was destroyed in the 17th century, it was meticulously restored to its former glory in the 19th century. Perched on a vineyard-covered hilltop, this iconic landmark is considered one of Germany's most beautiful castles.
Beautiful piece of architecture decorating the town. Nice local attraction with a coffee and observation terrace. Fantastic tour guide. I was wishing for more spaces to be available in the castle. Perhaps exposition is only 30% of the possible area. Still very beautiful and worth the visit.
Egle K — Google review
Scenic beautiful castle on the top of a hill by the river just like in a fairytale. You only can visit inside the castle following a guided tour, you can buy the ticket at the souvernir shop at the gate. I'm very grateful that this castle is dog friendly so we all can join the tour together. The tour is about 45 minutes and in German, the tour guide handed out printed script for other languages before the tour started, but you can always ask him question in English. The castle was built in 11th century but was destroyed, then rebuilt in 19th century in Neo-Gothic style. The interior is Neo-Renaissance and Neo-Baroque style with many interesting decorations stuffs. The tour guide told some interesting about languages, why we call something as it is. The view from the castle is magnificent

There is also option to hike to the castle or go by bus.

Parc animalier de Sainte-Croix is a family-friendly animal park featuring 3 raised observation walkways and over 100 different species living in semi-freedom. It's a great destination for families, offering hiking, cycling, and horse riding trails through the countryside. Visitors can also look forward to lively days out in Luxembourg. The park offers unique lodging experiences like the Amarok lodging with Arctic wolves, which provides an up-close encounter with these majestic creatures.
Fantastic. Everyone is so warm and welcoming. The park is so beautiful even in January. Our lodge at the wolves enclosure was an experience none of us will ever forget. Again everything was welcoming and beautiful. The wolves are stunning and we never got tired of watching them. Already looking forward to our next visit! We will be back!
Kathrin F — Google review
We went there for a day trip. This is one of if not the nicest animal park I have ever seen. It is spaceaus and beutiful for people and animals. The areas are very well looked after and tastefully created and decorated. Everywhere you look you see someone with true ability and style takes care of this. No kitch no nonsense- just a beatiful large park with a farm and some animals in it. Very nice playground for childre too. The only negative I can say- they need to change their catering partners or make them do better job. I am yet to see at least average level of quality from Eurest anywhere but the main restaurant food is really very low quality and very overpriced for what you get. It looks sad and unloved. It's really a big contrast between the restaurant and the rest of the park. So pack your snacks and avoid the panoramic restaurant if you go there. The soup serving place next to the playground looked a little better though. But we only had coffee and ice cream there so I don't know about the food. Nevertheless- for us it was more than 2 hour drive but it was totally worth it! Higly recommended, especially if you love animals and prefer to see them closer to their natural habitat instead of being placed into display boxes.

Stayed here two nights with my son. We had lodge 14 with a view of the black bears. The park is well located and you can tell that they go out of thier way to organize activities so that everyone can enjoy thier visit. The animals are really well taken care of. I recommend the train ride as you learn a lot about the animals. We also did the soigneur du jour option biodiversité, but I don't think it was worth it for the price. However my son enjoyed it so I was happy. Breakfast and dinner is included if you are staying the night. This should probably in the future become a paid option (thus lowering the prices of the stay) because the food offered was really not that good at all and I am far from being picky food wise. We ate elsewhere the second night and breakfast we skipped all together. Otherwise, I would definitely visit and sleep there again but would love to not have to pay for food that I probably won't even like.

Porta Nigra, also known as the Black Gate, is a grand Roman gateway dating back to 180 AD. It is the largest monument of its kind in the north of Italy and serves as a natural starting point for exploring Trier. Despite several renovation projects over the years, its imposing size and unmissable Roman design have been retained. Visitors can walk through it and even go up into it to appreciate the detailed carvings and sheer size.
Beautiful day out in Trier where this historic gateway is found. A ride in the tourist train is a must ro see the main sights which are all accessible to walk within 20 min radius. Lovely bars and cafes in the square. The Cathedral is beautiful. Home of Karl Marx, his house is good to visit too alongside the amphitheatre, palace gardens and other beautiful buildings.

Amazing site to see - not often you csn see Roman ruins from the 2nd century. Built from huge sandstone blocks, some weighing 6 tons - without modern machinery. The only one of the 4 original gates still standing, it was spared because it was used as a church. Massive structure in the center of town that should inspire awe. A remnant of a different age, when the Roman Empire ruled much of Europe.

I visited on a Tuesday late afternoon at around 1600. It is a very well preserved Roman building, where you could enter and walk up to the third floor of the building for a ticket of €5 (Student ticket). The explanation on the history of this building was very detailed and informative. 1 hour is well sufficient for a detailed visit for this landmark and learning its history. Overall, it is a fantastic experience to learn about the history of this area and I would definitely recommend people to visit.

Vianden Castle

Mentioned on 
43 lists 
Castle
Sights & Landmarks
Vianden Castle, located in the town of Vianden, Luxembourg, is a hilltop fortress that was built between the 11th and 14th centuries. It now houses exhibits showcasing medieval history. The castle's unique architecture is the result of a comprehensive restoration in the 20th century after it had fallen into ruin. Visitors can explore walkways displaying different historical layers of occupation, from Roman times onwards.
From the medieval times, it was originally a sentry post in 400 AD with its foundation and walls built of stone. It later became the seat of counts of Vianden. Over centuries, it was enlarged and rebuilt and passed down through inheritance until 1820 when it was sold and later fell into ruins. In 1890 it became an asset of the grand-ducal family of Luxembourg whose family later transferred it to the state in 1977 and the state began reconstruction to preserve its history. A tower, a hall and a chapel - symbols of a medieval aristocratic property. The visit started with an upslope walk from the bus stop to the entrance of the castle, where I got my ticket (€13). Then it was more steps to climb inside but not steep. Missed the audio guide (€2 as an online version to be used on your own device) at the entrance, but I'm thankful for the QR codes throughout the castle that gave detailed descriptions of the different areas and exhibits. I later discovered a small exhibition inside the Gift Shop with a video on the history and reconstruction of the castle. Should have started the tour here with an overview of its history before going into the castle. Overall, I enjoyed the visit and am glad I made it here. Highly recommend this as a must visit. I was actually still hesitant last night due to the long travel time across multiple modes of transport. But now, I'm glad I made it. In fact, it was what I enjoyed most this trip.
Daphne Y — Google review
Excellent castle to visit, very reasonably priced including the cafe. Although there were a reasonable number of visitors following the route around the inside of the castle, the visitor centre (located through the gift shop) was empty. This contains exhibits and a film presentation of the development of the castle over it's life span. The graphics on the film presentation are excellent. If you visit the castle, please don't miss out on the visitor centre.

I visited on Monday in the morning at 1030. Overall, it provided details regarding the history of the castle, but most required you to scan a QR code to read on your phone. An audio guide was available as well for €2 if needed. The castle was well preserved and provided a nice view of Vianden. A student ticket was €7. A visit of 1 hour should be sufficient, maximum 2 hours for a more detailed exploration of the castle and its history.

This is the heart of Vianden if you are in Luxembourg like in my case, is not far and you can find free public transportation There is a fee to enter the castle, not that expensive.

Vianden Castle in Luxembourg is one of those places that immediately feels like stepping into a storybook. Perched on a hill overlooking the quaint town of Vianden, the castle is beautifully restored and offers a wonderful mix of medieval atmosphere and panoramic views. Inside, the rooms are thoughtfully curated, giving a clear sense of how the fortress evolved over centuries. It’s large enough to explore for a couple of hours without feeling overwhelming, and the setting—surrounded by forested hills—makes it especially scenic. Whether you’re into history, architecture, or just want a stunning day trip, Vianden Castle is absolutely worth a visit.

€13 for adults or €7 for students. It’s a beautiful redeveloped castle. In my opinion the most picturesque in luxembourg. From the top you can overlook the quaint town and mountainous landscape, even seeing into germany. They also offer audio tours for €2 and there is a cafe where you can get sandwiches and drinks for not too badly priced. The gift shop does your classic souvenirs at about the same price as the other souvenir places. There is also a nice stamp you can use on your postcards. The castle is not too steep of a walk up to either so is accessible for all.

Good place to visit for those who love the history. Well restored castle with some entertainment. They have schedule for traditional dance, sword fighting and something else.

Very beautiful view! We loved it! Despite the masses of foreign tourists we never felt trapped or stuck. Everything is very good organized and the paths are big enough to walk around. There is a free escalator available (up to 25 persons) to travel up and down to the highest or lowest point. Absolute recommendation! Bring enough time to see all the beautiful things around. Visit the church, walk the little paths. Enjoy the small river and feel the warmth of luxembourg. The people are awesome and very friendly. The architecture is historic and modern at the same time. We discovered the city as a coincidence and we fell in love with it. Visit the nice little cozy restaurants, the bars, have a chat and enjoy the hospitality we experienced.

It ok, quite expensive for a few casements. Most the views are either obscured or the same as the last casement, you visited. I don’t think it’s worth €10 and adult. Don’t get me wrong, it’s an impressive feat of workmanship but you don’t really need to go inside to see them. Take photos from the top and the battlements on the bridge instead.

I visited Casemates du Bock and honestly, it was an amazing experience! The underground tunnels are full of history and mystery — it feels like stepping back in time. The view from the top is breathtaking, especially overlooking Luxembourg City. The place is well maintained and easy to explore. I’d really recommend visiting in the morning when it’s less crowded. Perfect spot for history lovers and photographers. Truly one of the most unique and memorable places in Luxembourg😍😍😍

Nice caves in the cliffs -There was only 1 person in line when i got here around 5 pm. -You get a map of the cave, but its pretty simple, you walk down looking at the rooms/lookouts, there is a few cannons, a well. -On the way out you cross the gate bridge on the inside level

I went on a Sunday at 1130 with their official guided tour which was hosted in English. The tour also offers other languages but do check and reserve your spot in advance as they do not open tours every hour/every day. The guided tour gave a lot of important information about the history of the Casemates, but also the city and urban planning in general. There were hardly any text printed out for visitors to read if you enter without any audio guide/tour guide. Therefore, remember to collect an pamphlet before entering the site if you want to know more about the history of the site. If you want to have more flexibility in exploring and taking photos at the site, I would suggest to explore on your own pace instead of joining the guided tour.

Going around the Casemates was amazing. Our tour guide was absolutely outstanding. Really do recommend paying the extra €8 and getting a tour because they are full of historic information about the history of the Casemates as well as some of the history about Luxembourg itself had a fantastic time took a roundabout about an hour and 15 minutes but it’s well worth a visit!

We were able to buy tickets when we arrived, which was convenient. Students can get tickets for €8 and I was not asked to show any ID. There is very minimal signage and none of it is in English, but they provide a pamphlet in multiple languages with helpful information. The views of the city are great and you get to see everything from a completely different angle than you would from the street. I am directionally challenged and got turned around a couple of times, but it was still easy to find the way out. I am 160 cm and did not feel like the space was small, but my friend who is 170 cm had to watch her head in a few spots. If you are taller than 180 cm, some areas may feel low and not very comfortable to move through. Overall, it was worth the visit.

A Weekend Well Spent in Luxembourg! Classmates Luxembourg was an absolute delight! We were lucky with the weather, which made our visit even better. We spent hours walking around, exploring the stunning views from various angles, and truly soaking in the beauty of the surroundings. We drove there by car and had no trouble finding parking—plenty of space, no waiting, and reasonably priced. The area is well-equipped with restaurants and food stalls, perfect for grabbing a quick bite on the go. Overall, it was a wonderful weekend escape. Highly recommended for anyone looking to unwind and enjoy some breathtaking scenery!

Metz Cathedral

Mentioned on 
45 lists 
Cathedral
Sights & Landmarks
Metz Cathedral, also known as the Cathedral of Saint Stephen, is a breathtaking Gothic masterpiece nestled in Metz, France. This architectural gem was constructed over several centuries, from the 13th to the 16th century, showcasing a captivating blend of Romanesque and Gothic styles. Its most striking feature is its vast array of stained glass windows that span an astonishing 6,500 square meters—making it one of the largest collections in any church across France.
One of the most beautiful cathedrals I’ve ever visited. The stained glass windows are incredible, especially the ones by Chagall – they really stand out. The cathedral is huge and full of light, and you can feel the history as soon as you walk in. It’s free to enter, which is great, and it’s right in the centre of Metz so it’s easy to visit while walking around the old town. Definitely worth seeing if you’re in Metz, even just to sit inside for a few minutes and take in the atmosphere.
Kinan R — Google review
One of the most amazing cathedrals in France! When you stand in front of Metz Cathedral, you feel small and full of wonder. The golden stone shines in the sun, and the tall towers seem to touch the sky. Inside, the light is mystical. The stained-glass windows are not only from the Middle Ages but also modern, even by Chagall. They make the walls look alive with colors. It has the highest nave in France (41 meters), higher than Notre-Dame in Paris. It is called the “Lantern of God” because of more than 6,000 m² of stained glass.People say that at sunset, the golden stone creates an atmosphere that feels almost supernatural. This place is not just history. It is an experience. If you visit Metz, you cannot miss it.

Walking into Metz Cathedral - if you’re not exactly used to walking into thousand year old cathedrals - will leave you speechless, overwhelmed, and possibly teary eyed. It’s an astonishing edifice and on a sunny day the interior dances and glimmers with light and colour from the 1000s of panes of glass. You also have to appreciate and respect that this building is in active and daily use, so please - please - remain silent as you slowly wander the perimeter to marvel at the wonder of just how this building came to be, and the architectural miracle it is.
Greg M — Google review
We visited the Metz Cathedral with a specific goal — to see the stained glass windows created by Marc Chagall, since Chagall was our compatriot, also from Belarus. The cathedral itself is magnificent, and the stained glass windows are absolutely mesmerizing. The light filtering through the colorful glass creates a magical effect — the patterns and colors evoke feelings that are simply beyond words. We couldn’t imagine anything that could make the experience even better, but while we were there, an organ concert began, and it turned the visit into something truly unforgettable. The combination of the music, the stained glass, and the atmosphere was enchanting. Since it all happened during the Christmas markets and holiday season, it became one of the most beautiful and awe-inspiring experiences we’ve ever had.
Maryna K — Google review
Incredible cathedral in size, artistry, detail, and use of colors! Huge volume of space under immensely high ceilings and arches! Photos and video really don't do it justice.. The audio echoes and booms here. The richness of the murals, paintings, stained glass, and sculptures are mind-blowing! Definitely a must-see! No entrance fee, though parking is not free and space is limited. Public restrooms are across the street and are free, though not very clean; while there are urinals, there are no toilets, just holes in the ground.
Brian B — Google review
It is very beautiful from the outside, but much more beautiful inside! This is one of the tallest, most beautiful and majestic cathedrals I have ever seen. If not the most! Its stained glass windows are simply incomparable. In such a place you feel some elusive magic, especially with the sounds of the organ.
Aliaksei A — Google review
Top 5 of stained glasses I've ever seen in 26 countries (I am french btw). Breathtaking, original with multiple styles, you definitely have to visit this cathedral in France if you love stained glasses!
Myriem L — Google review
The Metz Cathedral is absolutely stunning. Its Gothic architecture and level of detail make it one of the most beautiful cathedrals in Europe. Inside, the enormous stained-glass windows — some of the largest in the world — create a magical atmosphere with the natural light. Walking through feels like a journey through history, with glasswork ranging from the 13th century to modern pieces by artists like Marc Chagall. The exterior is just as impressive, with intricate sculptures and an imposing presence right in the heart of the city. Take your time to explore every detail, and if possible, join a guided tour to fully appreciate its history and symbolism. Definitely a must-see when visiting Metz.

Zoo d'Amnéville

Mentioned on

Zoo
Outdoor Activities
Zoo d'Amnéville is a captivating independent zoo that houses approximately 2,000 animals from five continents. The zoo offers unique attractions such as the medieval-style falconry show and various themed areas like the African plain where elephants, white rhinoceroses, giraffes, zebras, and other species coexist. Visitors can also explore the lush Amazon Jungle with its diverse wildlife and a stunning 9-meter waterfall.
Great zoo, beautiful setting and lots of animals. Great parking and accessibility. Really beautiful place to go with or without children. The only thing to be aware of is that most restaurants inside seems to be closed, so you will only be able to buy anything to eat or drink in a few places. Not ideal and not many options available. That being said, it is amazing overall.

Very nice zoo. A lot of different cats species, which i love. There are two shows, birds of prey and sea lions. Both are good, especially the birds of prey. Free parking is nice. The toilets could be better.
Wim O — Google review
Super place, if weather is ok, and you have children - this is kind of place which you can spent whole day and it will not be enough! I was thinking what are the tickets for 2 days and yearly access to zoo?! And being there for 5h we saw 50% of all attractions prepared for visitors. Bad for Animals but perfect for visitors is that places for animals are not enormous- so you are able to see cats, wolfs, birds and any kind of animals. It’s a balance between safe place and attractions for visitors. HIGLY RECOMMENDED

We had a great experience visiting Zoo Amnéville! There are so many animals to see — lions, tigers, polar bears, rhinos, hippos, and many more. It was amazing to watch them all from such a close distance. This was the first time I’ve seen a lion so close, and it was truly an exciting experience for all of us. We really enjoyed our visit and appreciated how well the animals are cared for. It’s a wonderful place for families and animal lovers — highly recommended!
Mohamed M — Google review
Amazing zoo, beautiful animals and very touchy. I was hugging a goat at one point lol. I would also touch more animals if I wasn't that scared lmao. 8/10 (wish it was less expensive, for two adults and one child we payed 100 euro, but if they need money to keep the animals healthy then I don't really mind)
Pol I — Google review
The zoo was a delightful experience, offering a diverse array of animals, and our visit lasted approximately five hours. Regrettably, we were unable to observe some of the animals, as they were taking shelter. The animals appeared quite relaxed, possibly due to the warm weather. We were fortunate enough to catch a glimpse of the red panda. The Jurassic section proved to be particularly enjoyable for the children. While I cannot comment on the quality of the park's food, as we did not purchase any based on recommendations from friends and other reviews, it is worth noting that some areas of the park could be cleaner, and the presence of standing water in certain locations resulted in an unpleasant odor. Nevertheless, it is certainly a worthwhile destination if you happen to be in the vicinity.
Matvii G — Google review
I have an annual pass and it has been such fun to visit the zoo at different times of the year! It’s very kids friendly . Great place to take kids out, short walk or a full-day out. My baby likes observing all the animals. We watched polar bear Henk and Akoia fighting, a vulture trying to open our bag during his performance , kids feeding giraffes leaves, gorillas climbing up the to get bananas, penguins chasing a butterfly… many cherished moments. The staffs are always friendly. Hope there would be more different animations. Will renew the pass definitely.
Lulu Y — Google review
Great park, a lot of animals. Make sure to take foods with you (especially if you have allergies) because food places closes at 14h. After that only icecream available. It’s better to start as early as possible, as we arrived at 12h at it was just enough time to see everything (we were 4 adults, so we were walking pretty fast everywhere). Animals look pretty looked after, in between areas there are enough benches, rubbish bins, toilets. Would come back again in future.

Points of Interest & Landmarks
Place Stanislas is a stunning neoclassical square in Nancy, France, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Designed by Emmanuel Here in the 1750s, this grand space is named after the enlightened Duke of Lorraine and features his statue at its center. Surrounded by elegant 18th-century buildings like the Opera National de Lorraine and the City Hall, visitors can admire exquisite gilded gates crafted by Jean Lamour and beautiful rococo fountains designed by Guibal.
A truly impressive square with royal charm! Place Stanislas in Nancy is an architectural gem – spacious, elegant, and full of history. The golden gates, fountains, and classical buildings create a grand and welcoming atmosphere. Cafés, museums, and the town hall are located right on the square – a perfect place to soak in the charm of Nancy. Some buildings around the square are currently under renovation, but this doesn’t take away from the overall experience. A must-see when visiting Nancy!

Really loved it. A mix of French and Polish baroque. The place and the surrounding garden was really friendly. We saw a dancefloor in the middle of the gardens, behind a really nice cafe. All the locals young and old swinging to the music. Magical.

I visited Place Stanislas today and was completely charmed. The golden gates, elegant facades, and lively atmosphere made it feel like walking through a fairytale from the old times. It felt peaceful and inviting I took a break by the Neptune fountain, enjoying the breeze and the sound of water — such a calming moment in the middle of the city. This place isn’t just beautiful; it has soul. I’m truly grateful I got to experience it.

With four distinct villages to explore, visitors can enjoy 43 thrilling attractions suitable for all ages. The park's well-maintained grounds and friendly staff create a welcoming atmosphere.

Theme park that has everything for the family ranging from rides for thrill seekers and rides for the little ones. We spent the whole day here from open to close and managed to cover most rides, except the ones for really little kids. The queues are manageable in the morning, by afternoon, the queues started to get quite long. Download the app to be able to check how long are the queue times before deciding to walk over to the ride! Helps to plan your day better!

Wow. This is one of the most well run theme parks I‘ve ever been to. It’s on the smaller side, but it offers enough to spend a whole day here. The whole park is very clean, ticket and park food prices are very fair and the ride operations are lightning quick. I unfortunately visited on of the most crowded days of the year, but because this park is so well run, I got everything done including 17 rides on their main attraction Alpina Blitz. I highly recommend a visit, and I‘m excited for their new coaster in 2027.

Nigloland is one of those parks that’s big enough to be exciting, yet small enough to stay cozy and easy to enjoy. It’s clean, nicely kept, and full of charm, perfect for a relaxed family day. There can be queues for the main attractions, but honestly, which park doesn’t have them during school holidays? What I really love is how balanced it feels: not just for little kids or thrill-seeking teens, but great for families with children of all ages. Even toddlers can find something fun to ride. During Halloween, it’s especially atmospheric, colorful, cheerful, and full of small details that make you smile. And by the way, it’s in Champagne, so technically, between rides with the kids, you can still sneak off for a tasting or two. To each their own pleasure. A warm, well-run park. Five stars, happily.

Nigloland is wonderfull blend between a fully fine to be old fashioned theme park for toddlers and older. You got everything for what you pay. It's clean, you have decent lines for all kind of attractions and rollercoasters. Spend a entire day in there. And it was a good surprise. An excellent ratio quality/price. If you plan to stay for a whole week end you should definitely stay at Hotel des pirates. The props are fun, the owners come to visit oftenly the customers. The restaurants has everything you'd like to eat. For starters you can enjoy the garden to take a drink while your kids are playing in the big playground just aside to where you can bask in the late afternoon light in your seat sipping your cocktail ! A nice stay for any family

Such an amazing experience with family, good for the little ones and also very fun for the adults. This is one of the most beautiful and well kept and maintained attraction park I’ve ever been to in my life. You can really tell they keep their maintenance and housekeeping to a really high standard. All staff were also very friendly. The rides are all amazing. The African “safari” on the boat was a highlight. So entertaining. So in awe of what they have created at this park. The gardens are also beautiful, reminds me of the botanic gardens.

The Cathedral of Notre-Dame of Reims is an impressive 13th-century Gothic cathedral featuring twin towers and intricate stained glass windows. Along with the nearby Archbishop's Palace, known as Tau Palace, it is recognized by UNESCO for its architectural and historical significance. The cathedral has undergone extensive restoration after being damaged during World War I.
What is it about the majority of the large towns and cities in the UK. You have so many restrictions. You can’t drive into places with the many traffic restrictions zones and parking costs an arm and a leg. (The ULEZ & LEZ’s have nothing to do with saving the planet, just another Tax!) I’ve just driven into the centre of Reims in France (No traffic queues (This was on a Saturday!) to visit the most wonderful Notra-Dame Cathedral, parked my car less than 10 minutes walk without any congestion or issues ( yes I had to get a Crit’Air sticker for my car… cost less than £5! for the year). We parked for over 2.5 hrs in the centre of Remus and visited the beautiful Cathedral which has no cost to enter! The next most amazing thing was the cost of the parking. €0.30! Yes that right. Less than £0.30p. In the uk you probably would be queuing for an hour and if you were lucky to find parking it would be around £15 for a couple of hours. I’m proud to be British but the government don’t want to you to do or go anywhere and everyone is trying to squeeze every penny out of you. I recommend a visit to this lovely cosmopolitan city that has wonderful architecture and many other ‘ attractions’ you can also park for 24hrs for €4.00. Enjoy. Well worth it.

Historical & Legendary Cathedral This is one of the oldest Cathedrals in the world. It witnessed the crowning of Kings in the Middle Ages and was always an amazing beacon of faith for the Catholic Church. It is currently ongoing a bit of renovation but still looks fabulous. If you come to Reims you will see the Cathedral it is the absolute one and only building you need to see visit. We were also very impressed by the inside the ceilings are so high that they give you this feeling of Grandness- ABSOLUTE must see !

One of the most beautiful cathedrals in France. It was built in the Gothic style and is truly a masterpiece of architecture. The exterior is incredibly detailed, with stunning sculptures and tall towers that immediately catch your eye. Inside, the high ceilings, colorful stained-glass windows, and peaceful atmosphere make the experience unforgettable. It’s amazing to think how much history this place holds — it was the traditional site for the coronation of French kings. The best part is that entry is free, so it’s definitely worth a visit for anyone interested in history, architecture, or just looking for a breathtaking place to explore. Highly recommended!
