Zamek Książ

Mentioned on 
5 lists 
Castle
Sights & Landmarks
Książ Castle, the largest castle in Lower Silesia, is a grand chateau-style complex situated on a hill overlooking the river Pelcznica and part of the Waldenberg mountains. Originally built in 1288 and expanded in the 16th century, it showcases Gothic, Baroque, and Rococo architectural styles. The castle offers guided tours with informative audioguides that seamlessly lead visitors through its rich history and art gallery.
Zamek Książ is a very impressive historical place to visit with rich history, culture and mystery. The palace is so huge, elegant, well maintained, super clean and well managed. Thump up for the dedicated staff. I have visited the palace few times and I well visit again as it is near impossible that you can absorbe this rich history from one visit particularly when you see the picture of Princess Daisy with her dazzling beauty and philanthropy. But I am glad that after the WWII, the castle was restored and open to the public to see first hand the beauty and charm of such amazing historical castle in the whole world. You got to see the place. You will not regret it. I recommend.

We walked in the summer, but wanted to see this castle last winter, which might be a bit problem as the path may have been a bit slippery. It's a nice circuit along the river, quite uphill, from St Anne's church, (ruins) through the old castle to the new chateau , which is beautiful and the park maintained, free to enter. The place is photogenic and on the way there you can stop at the viewpoint. However, choose the right part of the day not to have the sun directly to your eyes.
Hama — Google review
Unbelievable castle! Very huge with an extended park. Tha castle itself is nicely decorated and furnished. You can feel the atmosphere of the past. By official suggestion you need 2.5 hours to go round but we did it shorter because we didn't have too much time. We went on the underground tour as well which is very interesting. It was part of the Rise Project of nazi Germany. A sharp contrast with the peaceful world of the castle!! You have to climb a lot of stairs!! Be careful. But it is worth!
Gabriella S — Google review
Tickets cost around 60pln for visit a castle. The whole tour takes around 1h. The castle is really good renovated and has a lot to see. Parking cost us 30pln . With the ticket you have also entrance to the garden. I did not have to wait to visit this place
Wikson — Google review
It was an interesting visit, but there were some organizational issues. Ksiaz Castle is definitely worth a visit. The self-guided tour of the interior is interesting and informative. Seeing the original furniture and décor from different historical periods was fascinating and really helped us imagine life in those times. The castle is large, and the tour takes about one to two hours, depending on your pace. You can explore at your own pace, which is a big plus. After finishing the tour of the interior, you can access the gardens, where you can walk around, relax, and even grab a bite to eat at the café. Note that prices are on the expensive side. Unfortunately, I had an unpleasant experience with the security staff. Due to the large number of visitors, it was difficult to stop and take photos, so I wanted to walk back and capture some shots I had missed. However, I was told that going against the flow is not allowed, even though I saw someone else (not a staff member) doing so freely. It felt inconsistent and frustrating. Make sure not to skip the underground section of the tour. It provides fascinating insight into the castle’s role during WWII. It's quite cold underground, so bring a warm layer. Plan to spend about 40 minutes down there. Overall: It's a beautiful, historic place worth visiting, but be prepared for some crowd-related limitations during peak times.
Mykhailo — Google review
Better to come earlier to prevent huge queue for the tickets. Use terminals to the left from tickets office (same enter as tickets office), they were totally free. Great and clean place inside and outside. P.s. if you want to enjoy coffee after visiting castle - better stay in cafe inside (NOT on terrace), because they have huge queue and bad coffee quality. So buy inside whatever you want (as take away) and enjoy terrace view.

Wang Church is a 12th-century wooden church that was originally located in Norway and later transported to Karpacz, Poland in the 19th century. The church's architecture resembles Viking longships, adding to its historical and cultural significance. Visitors can also explore the picturesque Karkonosze National Park nearby, known for its rare plant and animal species as well as breathtaking landscapes.
this beautiful charming wooden church offers a glimpse into the past with its unique design and craftsmanship. Tour is available with a small fee. Don’t miss the stunning views of the valley from the small cemetery. Parking fee: 5€ per hour.
Hong P — Google review
It's a very historically important church. It's a wooden church with beautiful exterior architecture. There's a small cemetery surrounding the church. While many churches in Poland are free to enter, this one costs 14 zł, with an additional 5 zł if you have a camera. I didn't go in because there were large groups of people inside.
Ruslan M — Google review
Worth to see, very nice little wooden church with beautiful well maintained grounds. Ticket is cheap and you can spend there as much time as you want. To there there you can leave your car on paid parking and take a walk. Some little shops and coffee places around. View is spectacular

A small wooden Viking-style church surrounded by a small old cemetery. The steep trip up will reward you with breathtaking views. What I don’t accept personally is paying an entrance fee to a church!

A unique 12th-century wooden church originally built in Norway and relocated to Karpacz in the 19th century. Surrounded by the stunning Karkonosze mountains, Wang Church blends Viking architecture with Christian symbolism. A peaceful place for reflection, history, and beautiful views — a must-see when visiting Karpacz.

Tropical Islands

Mentioned on 
4 lists 
Water park
Water & Amusement Parks
Tropical Islands is a vast water park with accommodations like rooms and cottages, featuring an indoor rainforest and a lagoon. The Aquapark AMAZONIA offers outdoor heated pools, water slides, and Balinese beds for relaxation. Conference facilities are available for business events. Guests can enjoy various dining options on-site. While some visitors had issues with check-in, they found the park impressive with its diverse activities and natural elements like animals and plants.
We had a great stay, but yes they use too much chlorine in the water and since chlorine is a gas and is not trapped well in warm water the atmosphere is feeling heavy of chlorine. This is unfortunate. Having said that, we had a great stay. Not all the staff are polite as expected but the greatest majority are good. They are just not very confortable with English. The service was good however. We stayed at the sunrise houses and it was a great surprise. It was clean and very fresh, almost new even.
Martin L — Google review
It’s an incredible experience that I will never do again. The waterpark aspect is nice and huge, but every beach chair is taken by towels… You can change to swim wear in the dome but there are not enough closets for everyone and the ones that seem available are broken. Meaning the lock doesn’t work. The food is bad and the service to get the food is worse - it’s horrendous. They have hired just about 1 server per restaurant and they only speak German. Today our dinner restaurant at Ohana hotel where we stay, had run out of 2 food items, of 5 available, and ketchup. At least they said that they might have it tomorrow, but no guarantees. The room in Ohana is nice. And one elevator is broken so always a queue to get up to your room. You can buy a refill cup, that you can fill every 45 minutes, but there was always a queue and multiple times we experienced that drinks had run out or no ice… If you like regular quality food, then this is not for you. If you like good food, then Germany is not for you. So, all in all it’s an experience - not be repeated.

Tropical Islands - a place that will test if your team would survive on a deserted island. I came to Tropical Islands for two days with a group of 16 friends. I booked four tents (bookings were made simultaneously, from one account). Upon arrival, I discovered that two tents were in Zone 1, and two more in another one – about 5 minutes apart. It seemed absurd to split the group, but I decided it wasn't worth arguing about. Upon arriving at the tents, we discovered that one of our assigned tents was occupied by strangers, leaving my guests with nowhere to sleep. I spent approx. 1.5 hours at the reception desk discussing the situation, and the staff sent me from one employee to another, with no specific action. Each employee kept me waiting, without telling me how long or for what I was waiting for. The manager suggested moving one tent to Zone 1 and leaving the other four guests separately in Zone 2, or putting four people in a "house" in a completely different area from the rest of my guests. This would have meant we'd be housed in three different areas of the complex. We weren't given the option of moving all of us to the same area. The only comment from the staff was "we are overbooked, we can't do anything about it - you can write a complaint". When I asked ironicaly if I could give a one-star rating on Google Maps as compensation, the employee said yes. What I'm doing right now. After the argument, we were given a tent that leaked and was completely wet (pics attached). The staff told us, they don't have any protective foil and we had to deal with it by ourselves. When asked what kind of compensation we will receive for the inconvenience, wasted time, and ruined atmosphere, the employee said we could get 4 coctails vouchers. After commenting that there were definitely more of us and the whole group was now waiting and getting upset, the employee decided the problem was limited to one tent. Ultimately, we received 7 vouchers, which could only be used in the area outside the main water attractions. The worst customer service I've ever experienced. The entire complex advertises itself as an amusement park, although the attractions included in the ticket price are two swimming pools (one of which is a children's playground), four indoor water slides, one pool and one outdoor slide. During our stay, the outdoor water wasn't very warm. The outdoor slide didn't have enough water, and we stopped at every turn, having to push ourselves off the walls. The bar and food court, as well as most of the attractions, close at 10:00 PM – this isn't a place for adults looking to spend a pleasant evening, enjoy an exotic evening drink on the beach, dance, etc. If it weren't for the fact that I wasted a lot of time on Saturday arguing with the staff and having team-building activities planned for my guests for the evening, we would have left right after breakfast on the second day, as there was absolutely nothing to do for more than 4-5 hours. On the positive side, I came with fantastic people who organized themselves, made a great atmosphere and wanted to have fun together. Breakfast was also good. Otherwise, I wouldn't recommend it. The Polish Suntago is definitely more attractive, better organized, and has a wider variety of attractions for everyone and stuff is more pro-client.

We arrived at 6pm and waited in line for a little over 1hr to get checked in. Check in person was friendly but overwhelmed. We had to find our way around during our stay but it’s ok because my husband and my son are very good in memorizing the way. The frustration started when we wanted to check out. They have some check out machines that many people use to check out, but many of them are stuck because the machine won’t take the payment so in the end they can’t finish the self check out. After waiting and observing the situation, we decided to do check out at the counter. The person (a beautiful lady) told us how much to pay and I reached my wallet to pay to the cents with coins. This, apparently, created frustration for the beautiful lady and she had to shake her head while looking at what I was doing. VERY UNPOLITE, but also very German! Honestly, we had a great time at tropical island and in the end she had to ruin that experience. WHYYY???? I just don’t get it. But be prepared for this kind of customer service wherever you are when in Germany!

Impressive at first glance but we wouldn't come again. The initial impression is really cool, the jungle area and overall size of the dome is nice! But afterwards, you'll notice some things: - Food and service are absolutely horrible. We waited 10 minutes to be seated at a restaurant, and there was no one in front of us and the restaurant was basically empty. - Almost all arcade games and tables in the game area are just broken. Overall, our group agreed that it was a nice one time experience and maybe really cool for a single day stay with small children, but we wouldn't go there again.
Alexander M — Google review
The venue itself is genuinely beautiful and well-kept. The environment is immersive, clean, and provides a pleasant tropical atmosphere, making it a great place to relax and enjoy the unique setting. Dining Disappointment: The food quality is poor. It mostly consists of low-quality frozen products sold at the price of normal, fresh meals. This is a significant drawback for a day-long visit. • Locker Trouble: The changing room situation was frustrating. Lockers for personal belongings are open and seemingly available, but are unusable, which causes inconvenience right at the start of the visit. • Service Hit-or-Miss: The staff attempts to be nice and polite, but the execution of good service is inconsistent. Their efforts are visible, but the helpfulness and efficiency vary.
Tomasz S — Google review
On balance a great experience enjoyed by us all. Would advise an overnight stay, as facilities can be used prior both check-in and check-out. Arriving around 17:00 ~ albeit in November ~ using the QR code meant little or no delay, leaving time for the pools and water-slides prior the buffet dinner. Likewise with an early start we were able to use many of the facilities ahead of the day-trippers before a buffet breakfast. An imaginative way of using a remarkable historic building, and an interesting contrast to the autumn weather beyond! Our only criticism stems from using the regional railway service to arrive (30 mins delay) and depart (120 mins delay)... maybe the trains ran on schedule back in the day?
Colin H — Google review
It was the most horrible experience. We arrived at 11:30, none of the lockers were locked. We tried dozens of lockers. We, like many other people, had to leave our things in an open locker. Or we had to carry everything with us. We were with three small children, so carrying everything with us was not an option. The air and water inside were not warm enough, everyone was freezing, both the children and us. Very few hair dryers. Finally, when we were leaving, I accidentally noticed the extra 10, 15 and 25 euros. When I asked the cashier what it was for, he said that it was for the bracelet that closes the locker, 2.50 euros and he didn't know anything more. He sent us to the information desk and didn't want to solve the problem. The information desk showed that it was a charge for our numerous attempts to close the locker. Of course they took 50 euros from us, but we spent a lot of time arguing and our tired children barely survived the whole time. I can only imagine how many people didn't notice and just paid whatever they were charged. And for all this terrible service we paid 200 euros and an additional 100 euros for food (only for two adults and three small children under 5 years old).

Took these photo during my trip to Prague from Vienna in 2022 Mid Dec. Walking from the train station to old town square before reaching the castle. Quite an eye opening as walking from train station to the castle lets you experience many of the old historical buildings. Nice place to visit. History: Prague's Old Town Square, or Staroměstské náměstí, has served as the city's main public gathering space since the 10th century. Surrounded by historic architecture spanning multiple periods

The main square of the city and probably biggest and most visited sight in the whole city. A large square surrounded by medieval buildings, of which the most famous are the old town hall and the church of the madonna. Absolutely fabulous and a must visit place, which of course has it's drawbacks: it is extremely packed with tourists.

This square in Prague has delightful architecture to see. It also has the famous Astronomical Clock. There are many restaurants with outdoor places to sit and eat. You can go to the top of the Old Town Hall by walking up many steps or purchasing an elevator ticket. Here you will see great views of the surrounding areas from up there.

The Old Town Square is definitely the kind of place where you get an incredible view no matter what coordinate you stand on or which way you look. ​It’s always packed with tourists (even when it was pouring rain!), but Prague, Czech Republic, is one of those cities that just instantly lifts your spirits and makes you feel happy. ​If you’re lucky, you might even spot two giant dogs, just like the ones in the picture. (They are seriously a sight to behold in real life!) I wonder what breed those dogs are? ​Anyway, I don't think I'll ever forget this square—it’s the hub where so many famous landmarks meet. Prague, you're totally stuck in my memory!

One of the oldest parts of the city is the heart of medieval Prague. The most significant square of historical Prague, founded in the 12th century, has witnessed many historical events. In addition to the Old Town Hall and the Church of Our Lady before Týn, the square is dominated by the Baroque Church of St. Nicholas, the Rococo Kinsky Palace, the Gothic House at the Stone Bell and the Jan Hus Monument. On the pavement of the square there are memorial stones commemorating the execution of 27 Czech lords in 1621 and the Prague Meridian. Perhaps the most beautiful square in the whole city. Gothic houses and churches; cobblestone streets and squares; stone towers create an amazing historical atmosphere. And all kinds of bars, restaurants, dance clubs, shops of international brands, galleries and hotels give energy to the old city, presenting its modern face.
Witold D — Google review
The most beautiful and historical centre of Prague! The astronomical clock, St. Nicholas church, church of our lady and other historical buildings are located around the square. The Old Town Square remains a vibrant place with many pavement cafes and restaurants, frequent concerts in the churches, street performances, and seasonal markets like Christmas and Easter markets.

The building's historic atmosphere and well-preserved interior make the experience even more special. If you visit Prague, don't miss a visit to this iconic landmark! The clock is located on the south wall of the Old Town Hall in Old Town Square. The clock mechanism consists of three main components: the astronomical disc, which represents the position of the sun and moon in the sky and displays various astronomical details; statues of various Catholic saints standing on either side of the clock; the "March of the Apostles," an hourly display of animated apostles and other sculptures, notably a skeleton representing Death, striking the time; and a calendar disc with medallions representing the months. According to local legend, the city will suffer if the clock is neglected and its good work is jeopardized. A ghost attached to the clock is said to nod its head in confirmation. Legend also states that the only hope lies in a boy born on New Year's Eve.

The Old Town Hall is one of the main sights of Prague. It dominates the impressive and beautiful Old Town Square. It was built in the 14th century in gothic style with a tall tower (which you can enter for a fee to enjoy fantastic views). It also has an astronomical clock with a performance at every hour during day time.

Great view from the tower. One of the best is Prague. You can take elevator or be brave and have fun and walk the stairs for a few flights then it is an easy incline ramp to the top, until you get to a spiral stair that has a stop & go light! Fun place to see the town

The best part of this place is the tower view, which comes with a price tag. But trust me, it’s worth it. The view from above is breathtaking, and it’s definitely worth the money. Check out my picture to see the amazing view you can get.

You do not have to buy a tour to climb (or ride the elevator) up the astronomical clock tower. You are able to go to their ticket booth and buy a ticket, possibly even at a discounted price if you’re there just as they open. I’m so glad our walking tour guide from the day before told us this! All of the ”guided tour” tickets were either sold out or did not work with our schedule, so having this information allowed us to experience this historical clock tower. There are two interior elevators, the first one everyone can take, the second one is for those who paid for elevator tickets. The second elevator is a circular glass elevator that will take you to the top of where you can go. Otherwise, you walk up steps and ramps. The view is beautiful, even if you have gone up other towers in the area. Apparently, Prague is known as “the city of a hundred spires!” This one is definitely worth visiting!

A symbol of the Czech Republic, an object of national cultural heritage, a symbol of the history of Prague and the oldest institution of Czech self-government. At the end of World War II, its dungeons became the centre of the Prague Uprising against Nazism, and the town hall was almost completely destroyed by shelling. Even the bell from 1313 was not preserved, and the altar of the Chapel of the Virgin Mary was also seriously damaged. However, the people of Prague have restored their national treasure, and today you too can enjoy the Old Town Astronomical Clock with its depiction of the procession of the twelve apostles, the grandeur of the state rooms, the elegance of the Chapel of the Virgin Mary and the mysterious Romanesque-Gothic dungeon. Be sure to take our space elevator to the top of the Town Hall Tower for a stunning view of all of Prague.

Beautiful historic town square, would highly recommend heading there between 8-9am and you will absolutely miss the crowds. Also if you want to see the astronomical clock working and in action, make sure you are there on the hour.

Charles Bridge

Bridge
Sights & Landmarks
Points of Interest & Landmarks
Charles Bridge is a historic stone bridge that connects Prague's Old and New Towns. It is known for its lively atmosphere with street artists and entertainers. The bridge offers majestic views of iconic landmarks such as the Dancing House, Petrin Tower, and the historic fort of Vysehrad. Nearby attractions include the famous Prague Castle, which consists of multiple sections including St. Vitus Cathedral, the Old Royal Palace, St. George's Basilica, and more.
It’s definitely a must visit spot no matter how many people there are. Feel the vibe of the excitement of the crowd and the splendid historic beauty. You have to be there at different timing though, in the morning, in the evening, on the rainy day and a beautiful day. And different angles, on the bridge, from the top of the tower and on the boat. It’s never enough.
Wen — Google review
Took these photos during my day trip to Prague on 2022 mid Dec. A wonderful site walk to the castle back to the train station. Love the history sites. The Charles Bridge is Prague's iconic medieval stone bridge, built from 1357 to 1402 under the auspices of King Charles IV to replace the flood-destroyed Judith Bridge. Connecting the Old Town with the Lesser Town across the Vltava River, the Gothic structure was the city's only river crossing for centuries, making it a crucial trade and procession route. Originally known as the Stone Bridge, it was officially renamed the Charles Bridge in 1870. A defining feature is the continuous alley of 30 Baroque statues and sculptures of saints that adorn its length, added mainly in the late 17th and early 18th centuries. Most are now replicas, with the originals preserved in a museum, though they retain the bridge's mystical aura. The most famous statue commemorates St. John of Nepomuk, who legend says was martyred by being thrown from the bridge. Since 1965, the bridge has been pedestrian-only, transforming it into a vibrant hub for artists and musicians. It is a quintessential Prague experience, offering panoramic views of the city, including the majestic Prague Castle.

This was the first place I visited when I arrived in Prague. The bridge was much less crowded than usual, but there were still a lot of tourists. It was extremely foggy, so nothing was visible. After sunrise, the views were incredibly beautiful. I recommend going just before sunrise, especially if you want to take beautiful photos. The bridge gets extremely crowded around noon. There are 30 Baroque statues on the bridge. This bridge will be one of your favorite places in Prague.
Ruslan M — Google review
Must see at sunset or at night I recommend. Beautiful unique statues all along both sides with great views of the city on both sides of the river. Pretty crowded but not any problem. You can pay for a ticket in the tower on the east side once you climb up several levels that will get you to the top for cool views of the bridge.
Joe B — Google review
One of the most beautiful bridges in the world, the key is to come here early in the morning around 5:30/6 am when the sun is slowly rising. There’s a lot less tourists and people so you can take some great photos and really take in the scenery. It gets extremely crowded in the afternoon onwards. All of the statues and history of the bridge truly are mesmerizing, this is a must visit if in Prague.
Connor — Google review
This bridge features amazing architecture, statues, river views and medieval era feel! Go early or late in the day if you want to avoid tourist jams. Don’t miss the Old Town Tower and stairs to the top at the east end of the bridge👍 ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Charles Bridge (Karlův most) An absolute highlight in Prague, truly an impressive and historic landmark. Walking across this bridge feels like walking through centuries of history. The view over the Vltava River and the city skyline is just stunning, especially in the evening. I visited on a Wednesday evening in October, it was lively but not overcrowded, just the perfect time to enjoy the atmosphere without the big tourist crowds. You’ll find street musicians, artists, and an amazing vibe that captures the spirit of Prague. ⭐️ 5 stars! A must-see in Prague, both for the view and the history.
Andreas B — Google review
Charles Bridge is one of the most magical places in Prague — a true masterpiece that captures the city’s charm and history. Walking across it feels like stepping back in time, surrounded by beautiful baroque statues, the sound of street musicians, and incredible views of Prague Castle and the Vltava River. It’s especially enchanting early in the morning or at sunset when the light reflects on the water and the bridge feels almost dreamlike. Each statue tells a story, and every view from the bridge looks like a postcard. It’s a place where history, art, and atmosphere come together perfectly.

Prague Castle is a sprawling complex that showcases a mix of architectural styles, from Romanesque to Gothic and even 20th-century designs. As the primary attraction in the Czech Republic, it holds significant historical and symbolic importance. Serving as the seat of Czech sovereigns since ancient times and later as the residence for Czech presidents, this expansive site includes various structures such as the Cathedral of saints Vit, Vaclav and Vojtech, noble palaces, a convent, and more.
Visiting Prague Castle was an absolutely exceptional experience . The entire complex is filled with incredible history beautiful architecture and a magical atmosphere. Walking through the courtyards exploring the old buildings and seeing St Vitus Cathedral up close was truly fascinating. From the top areas the panoramic views of Prague are breathtaking especially at sunset. Everything was well organized and the area was clean and lively with street musicians and local vendors. Definitely one of the most impressive and unforgettable places to visit in Prague. I also took some amazing photos that perfectly captured the charm of this place.

Visited Prague Castle and the surrounding building during my trip in Mid Dec 2022. I took the 1st train in the morning from Vienna to Prague, train ride about 5hrs plus, reached around 12pm where i slowly walk over to the Prague Castle. I must said i love the history and the architect, very beautiful, a must visit place. Abit of History of this castle and the surrounding building: Prague Castle is a vast complex of palaces, churches, offices, and gardens, established in the 9th century and now a UNESCO World Heritage site. It is the official seat of the President of the Czech Republic and showcases a blend of architectural styles from Romanesque to Gothic and 20th-century additions. The castle complex is one of the largest in the world, covering approximately 110 acres. Key buildings within the Prague Castle complex: St. Vitus Cathedral: The dominant feature of the castle, this Gothic cathedral is the largest and most important temple in Prague. Its construction spanned centuries, finally concluding in 1929. It is the site of coronations, houses the Bohemian Crown Jewels, and contains the tombs of many Bohemian kings. Old Royal Palace: The former seat of Bohemian princes and kings, this palace features Romanesque foundations and a magnificent late Gothic Vladislav Hall. St. George's Basilica: The oldest surviving church within Prague Castle, this basilica dates to 920 AD and is a fine example of Romanesque architecture. Golden Lane: This charming, narrow street is lined with small, colorful 16th-century houses originally built for castle guards and goldsmiths. Later, it famously housed writer Franz Kafka. Today, the houses contain exhibits and souvenir shops. Lobkowicz Palace: The only privately owned building in the complex, this palace showcases a significant private art and musical collection.

We bought tickets ahead of time, which was helpful since Prague is bustling no matter the time of year! The palace complex is massive and beautiful! Unfortunately, the palace itself was closed for an event, but we were able to explore the Cathedral and other areas within the complex. The stain glass windows are stunning and we had a good chuckle about the Starbucks with the grounds. We also were able to witness the changing of the guards, which was cool! Don’t miss out on the gardens and buildings outside of the main area!

Nice and interesting to visit overall but the basilica can be skipped. The Cathedral is beautiful. The museum is interesting and it offers nice views of the city from the terrace. A ticket to the tower is extra (200 czk) and can be purchased from the ticket office in front of the Cathedral.

Fantastic architecture, stunning buildings,you buy a ticket and it is valid for 3 days, as there is a lot to see in 1 trip,easy to get to,we got a taxi there, then walked back into town, (all down hill).only thing i felt spoilt it was it has a Starbucks in the grounds, just a bit bizarre. But we'll worth a visit.

Worth getting at ticket for the standard circuit in advance on the official website. You can then take a tram to the top of the castle grounds and work your way through the complex before ending the day with a nice refreshment at the bar area, before making your way down the steps.

Prague Castle is an absolutely fascinating place and one of the highlights of my trip to Prague. It’s not just a castle, it’s a whole complex full of history, stunning architecture, and beautiful views of the city. Walking through its courtyards and old buildings feels like stepping back in time. The atmosphere is amazing, especially when you see the mix of Gothic, Baroque, and Romanesque styles all in one place. The castle grounds are very well maintained, and there’s so much to see including St. Vitus Cathedral, the Old Royal Palace, and the charming Golden Lane. Getting there was easy, and the entrance process was smooth with no long lines. I really enjoyed taking my time exploring, as every corner has something interesting to discover. From the top, the panoramic view of Prague is absolutely breathtaking. If you’re visiting the city, Prague Castle is definitely a must visit attraction. It’s a place full of culture, beauty, and history that leaves a lasting impression.

Prague Castle was an awesome place for our family to visit! We stuck to the free areas to avoid the long lines (not ideal with kids), but there was still plenty to explore and enjoy. The architecture, views, and atmosphere were all incredible. The changing of the guard ceremony at noon was definitely the highlight—everyone in the family loved it. A must-see when visiting Prague!

St. Vitus Cathedral is a Gothic masterpiece and a resting place for saints like Vitus, Wenceslas, and Adalbert. It's part of the Prague Castle district, a UNESCO World Heritage site with a mix of architectural styles. The cathedral features twin towers and houses the tomb of St. Wenceslas and the crown jewels. Visitors can also admire gurning gargoyles and stunning stained-glass windows, including one by artist Alfons Mucha.
I didnt actually go on a tour but I went up to the castle a vigorous but doable walk for a senior. The castle and surroundings are amazing and definitely worth the trip. The tour would probably be even better. Every hour on the hour they change the guard. Its a great show. Prague is the most beautiful city I've seen and the Castle was the topping on the cake
Dave M — Google review
St. Vitus Cathedral is truly a masterpiece and one of the most breathtaking landmarks I have ever visited. The moment you step inside, you’re surrounded by incredible Gothic architecture, beautiful stained-glass windows, and a sense of history that fills every corner of the cathedral. It’s located within Prague Castle, which makes the visit even more special since you can explore the entire castle complex at the same time. Getting in was surprisingly easy there was no waiting line, and the entry process was smooth and well organized. The details in the interior are stunning; every column, sculpture, and window tells a story. The atmosphere inside is peaceful and awe inspiring, especially when sunlight passes through the colorful glass. If you’re visiting Prague, St. Vitus Cathedral is an absolute must-see. It’s not only a symbol of the city’s rich history but also one of the most impressive examples of Gothic architecture in Europe.
Rawia F — Google review
A breathtaking masterpiece — a must-see in Prague! St. Vitus Cathedral absolutely took my breath away. The moment you step inside, you’re surrounded by stunning Gothic architecture, intricate stained-glass windows, and an atmosphere that feels almost otherworldly. The sunlight streaming through the colorful glass paints the walls in beautiful shades — it’s hard not to just stand there and stare in awe. Climbing up the tower is definitely worth it too — the view of Prague from the top is spectacular, especially on a clear day. You can see the red rooftops, the river, and the whole city spread out beneath you. It’s a bit of a climb, but totally worth the effort. Even if you’re not religious, the history and craftsmanship here are fascinating. The details on every arch, sculpture, and window tell stories that go back centuries. I’d recommend visiting early in the morning or later in the afternoon to avoid the big crowds, and take your time walking around the Prague Castle complex — it’s all connected and full of history. Overall, St. Vitus Cathedral is one of the most beautiful and memorable places I’ve ever visited.

High above Prague towers St. Vitus Cathedral, the largest Gothic church in the Czech Republic, mausoleum for the Bohemian kings, and repository of the Bohemian crown jewels. The history of this imposing structure begins around 930, when Duke Wenceslaus I commissioned the construction of a Romanesque rotunda to house a relic, an arm, of St. Vitus. The presence of this relic contributed to the conversion of the local population to Christianity. This proved successful, as in 1060 Prince Spytihněv II decided to commission a new, larger Romanesque basilica to replace the rotunda. The new basilica also housed the tomb of Duke Wenceslaus I, who had since been canonized. After the Bishop of Prague was elevated to archbishop, King John the Blind laid the foundation stone for the current Gothic cathedral on November 21, 1344. Ultimately, the cathedral took 585 years to build (in phases), and it wasn't officially consecrated until 1929. This exceptionally long construction period certainly paid off. The building is 124 meters long, 34 meters high, and has three towers; the large south tower rises another 11 meters above the two 88-meter-high west towers. The most noteworthy elements of the interior are the magnificent stained-glass windows, several of which were designed by Alphonse Mucha. There are also the royal tombs: Charles IV, Rudolf II, Ferdinand I, and Maximilian II (all King of Bohemia and Holy Roman Emperor) are buried in the cathedral. Furthermore, the Bohemian Crown Jewels (including the Crown of Saint Wenceslas) have been kept here since 1791. These are rarely shown to the public (replicas are on display in the Royal Palace). So, there's more than enough to admire in St. Vitus Cathedral!
Koen — Google review
2025-October St. Vitus Cathedral is gothically beautiful and definitely worth a visit while exploring Prague Castle. The stained-glass windows and Gothic details are impressive, and the size of the cathedral adds to its grandeur. However, having seen cathedrals in Rome and Madrid, I’d say St. Vitus doesn’t quite reach that same level of awe. It’s still remarkable, but it felt more like a historical landmark than a deeply moving experience. Still, it’s one of the top highlights within the Prague Castle complex and absolutely worth seeing.
Cindy R — Google review
I was amazed by St. Vitus Cathedral, the largest and most important cathedral in the Czech Republic. Words cannot describe the cathedral's size; just walking around it takes minutes. The cathedral's interior is truly stunning. There's a large main altar, several smaller altars, and wonderful historical sculptures and paintings on the walls. The cathedral is only open from 12:00 to 15:40, and it gets incredibly crowded. Don't leave Prague without visiting this cathedral.

Architecture is nothing less than insane. There is no picture I can show that will justify how beautiful this place is. If you go during the day, I highly recommend you revisit after dark when it the lights are on. Note, I didn't go inside, but I have heard it's great. In that case you will need to buy a ticket

A marvelleous piece of medieval church architechture and a huge and beautiful cathedral. Really impressive. The big negative side was, that the church was overful with people - and it wasn't even high season. It was impossible to truly enjoy the church, when the place was so packed that you felt like being sardines in a tin. Feels like the oversell tickets - entrance should be more regulated. But still amazing!

Theresienstadt concentration camp

Mentioned on 
15 lists 
Museum
Sights & Landmarks
Theresienstadt concentration camp, also known as Terezin, was originally a garrison town turned into a Jewish ghetto and concentration camp during the Nazi occupation of Czechoslovakia. The fortress walls contained over 150,000 Jews from various countries. Visitors can explore the Great Fortress and Small Fortress on guided tours to learn about the harrowing history of this place. It's a somber experience that offers insight into the suffering and loss endured by countless families during that time.
It's not a place you want to star rate, but it has been well preserved and open to the public to recount, in a small way, the abhorrent conditions the Czech Jews had to endure. Important for as many people to visit and appreciate that this must never happen again.

Really sad to get to know the past and how was life or surviving in a place like this, the entrance was about 10€ per person, there are toilets for free inside, don't miss the cinema, it shows a movie of about 20 minutes where you can get most of the information and history for free as well and it was translated in English.

If you’re planning a visit to the Terezín Memorial, I highly recommend making an online reservation in advance. While there are a few basic informational signs scattered around the site, most of the historical context and stories require a guided explanation to truly understand the significance of what you're seeing. The admission ticket includes a guided tour, but you must book it online beforehand through their official website. Several language options are available, making it accessible for international visitors. There is a small kiosk within the site that offers vending machines, and the town has a few grocery stores. However, it’s a good idea to bring your own light meal and drinking water for the visit, as options on-site are limited. Also, make sure to set aside time to visit the other museums in town. The ticket to the concentration camp also grants you access to several important museums in the town of Terezín, and they are absolutely worth seeing. These museums provide essential context and help paint a fuller picture of the site's history.

My nephew as me about Auschwitz when we were in Germany so we drove there the following week. As I read on the Internet that we need to reserve as we won’t get in, that was false, the free entrance are limited and need to be reserved but the tour in your language happens every couple hours or so and with many language, of it is 70€ but to really get the feeling and understanding of the place, I think you need the guided tour. Our guide was not that enthusiastic but I guess this is in their mantra. Her English was good for conversation but maybe a bit lacking for this kind of guiding but this did not bother the group I was in. For some reason I was expecting more from what everyone I know who have been there where telling me about the feeling and all but maybe I just been to too many of similar place when I was in the military… definitely recommend to go there with your younger members of the family so that we never forget and don’t let the Israelis repeat the same thing now with the Palestinians

A must visit, worth the day trip from Prague. We booked the tour online in advance but they didn’t even check the reservation. The guided tour was nice, if you don’t do it I’m not sure how you’d get information on the buildings as there is very little signage. They do run 4 or 5 tours at the same time, just in different languages. This means it’s quite crowded. It would be better if they staggered the times. They offer tours in many languages, and your entrance ticket here works in numerous other sights throughout the town as well.

We visited as it’s our last day, it’s pretty impressive how much money, time, and effort to rebuild all these historic buildings, including this Church of our Lady. Inside still haven’t had much to see but still nice to visit. Free entry but if you wish to climb up to the viewing tower over 100 steps then have a fee.

This is a beautiful church that is the jewel of Dresden. I loved visiting the church as well as sitting outside in one of the many cafes and restaurants and taking in the view. Church entrance is free. It’s gorgeous inside. If you want to climb up the dome, you need to go around the back. I think it was €12 entrance. The views are great from the top. There are a good few steps going up to start and then there is a ramp around the dome which makes it far easier to ascend.

Brilliant history! In the final days of WWII, the whole city was bombed including this church which was a very important part of Dresden.

It's free to walk into the main part of the church where you can see the beautiful interior, and 10€ per person to climb to the top of the church. The stairs are pretty easy most of the way up, and up until after you finish walking up a big sloped ramp near the end you must also get up some VERY steep and skinny stairs (so beware, if you're a claustrophobe or don't like heights). But the view of Dresden is so worth it if you do it.
Caleb M — Google review
The magnificent Frauenkirche! When I last visited decades ago, the church was nothing but a pile of rubble—or more accurately, a heap of stones—serving as a stark reminder of the devastation of war. Reconstruction began in 1994, and on October 30, 2005, it was officially reopened. The church hall is impressively tall and richly decorated. You can climb up to the dome, but we didn’t have time for that on this visit. I’m sure the views from up there—both into the church and across Dresden—are breathtaking. If you only have time to visit one attraction in Dresden, I’d choose the Frauenkirche.

The city of Dresden, often referred to as 'The Florence on the Elbe,' boasts magnificent architectural wonders like the Semper Opera House, Royal Palace, Cathedral St. Trinitatis, Castle Pillnitz, and Frauenkirche. Despite the devastation of World War II, Dresden has persevered and regained its beauty.
The building is still under construction 🚧 and the garden also. But it’s still beautiful, they allowed tourists to go inside the garden for free and walking up to the fortress area to see the view on both sides of the castle and city. The beautiful historical arts and history is worth to visit, very close to the Opera House too.

Magnificent Baroque palace, initially build by August Strong as a an orangery and gardens, destroyed by the ally bombings in 1945, restored in 50s and 60s . You can walk on the roof of the galleries and admire the beauty of it. It's open till late evening and the entrance is free.The inner garden part is currently ( as of August 2025) under renovation. The galleries house 2 museums - one of mathematical instruments and another is porcelain gallery ( which I highly recommend). When we were there in one of the towers a classical music concert was held. It was beautiful to listen to music in a such beautiful place.

I visited the Zwinger in Dresden and really enjoyed the experience. There is a lot to see here, and the place itself feels quite special. The architecture is impressive and honestly a bit overwhelming – you can just stand there and keep looking at all the details. Every corner has something interesting, from the buildings themselves to the sculptures and the way everything is arranged. It was a bit crowded when I visited, but that didn’t really stop me from enjoying it. You still have plenty of space to walk around and take your time. I found myself slowing down just to notice the small details, and it was worth it. Overall, I think it’s one of those places you shouldn’t miss if you’re in Dresden. It’s not only about seeing a landmark, but also about the feeling of being surrounded by such a unique piece of history and design.

Dresden Zwinger is an absolutely beautiful place—one of those spots where you instantly feel like you’ve stepped into another century. The architecture is breathtaking, with elegant palace buildings, detailed façades and peaceful courtyards that make the whole complex feel almost magical. It’s the kind of place where you can just stroll around, soak in the atmosphere, admire the gardens, and truly appreciate the history and beauty of Dresden. A must-see when visiting the city.

What a beautiful palace. Baroque at its best. Apparently nearly completely destroyed during world War 2 it now shines once more. Different exhibitions at the 4 wings with porcelain, old master and physics. Close to all the downtown historic buildings. In walking distance to the Frauenkirche. A definite must see.

We walked here to do something. It was pretty. We went across the street to rooftop bar pretty good view and sunset was pretty.

The Zwinger in Dresden is one of the city’s most stunning Baroque landmarks. Its elegant courtyards and ornate pavilions make it perfect for walking around and taking photos. The Old Masters Gallery, home to the “Sistine Madonna,” is a highlight, along with impressive porcelain and scientific collections. The site is well-kept, atmospheric, and beautiful both day and night. A visit truly feels worthwhile.

Castle
Sights & Landmarks
Historical place
Karlštejn Castle, founded in 1348 by Charles IV, Holy Roman Emperor-elect and the King of Bohemia, is a stunning Gothic castle located in Central Bohemia. It holds great historical significance as it houses the Imperial Regalia, Bohemian/Czech crown jewels, relics, and other important items. The castle has undergone various reconstructions and architectural style changes over the centuries.
Love this castle! Went with some family friends when visiting the Czech Republic to visit family. I’ve been in the past as a little kid also and I always love it. It’s beautiful and so fun to explore, really takes you back in time. I recommend if you’re visiting the Czech Republic or a resident! There are also nice walks nearby which I do recommend.

A really beautiful and lovely medieval castle with a rich history. It is quite a walk uphill from the train station or the car park, but it is definitely worth it: the castle is just amazing. You can visit the courtyard for free, but you can enter the castle only with the guided tour. I recommend to buy the tickets in advance, as it is likely they will sell out at least in peak season.
Henri ( — Google review
Tour of CZK300 per person for Charles IV apartment, went on November weekend but wasn’t too crowded (was able to get tickets upon arrival for a tour starting in 10 min). Note chapel is closed in winter and that’s the main attraction here. The tour wasn’t very informative about the history and felt a little rushed - would be okay to skip. The view of castle is very nice on the walk up from village and castle grounds are quite nice too (even the free accessible parts). Took about 45 min-1 hour each way from Prague + 30 min walking between village and castle.

Nice castle. You can take the train S7 from Prague main station to this castle. Which runs every 30 minutes during most of the day. The train station is just a 7 minute walk from the beautiful high street of the tiny town, with many f&b option. The street then leads to the steep incline to the castle, and it’s a 10 minute walk - lots of children make it up as well - so shouldn’t be an issue. The views from the castle are brilliant. There is a short 5 minute video with English subtitles being played in a small room below the visitor center and it is interesting. Recommended…!

First time doing a level 3 tour (small group of 6, all family members) that allowed us to see the castle in its entirety and on much more personal level. It was about 3 hours long. We had tickets bought in advance, online, no wait to get in.

I loved Karlštejn. The castle has an amazing history. Yours are both in English and in Czech. All the staff at the castle was super friendly and we even made friends with the local blacksmith. We had a really lovely time and highly recommend the castle as just outside of Prague adventure.

There is designated paid parking and transport at a cost up to the castle. Although steep at times you can walk through the town and shops up to the castle, we drove up and walked down. There are various guided tours with different sections of the castle. Book in advance to plan your trip if you want to do more than one tour. More shops operate during peak season in summer. A few shops where open, October. Would recommend the Snack Place for something to eat and drink, with a view of the castle and the Antique shop. We did the basic tour.
True R — Google review
One of the national treasures of the Czech Republic this iconic castle is definitely worth a visit. The castle founded around 1347 is set in the picturesque scenery of mountains and the Berounka river and it is linked with the emperor Charles IV. There are several visiting tours to choose from. The tickets can be bought online. If you have the possibility, make sure to choose the tour including the castle's chapels. The breathtaking gilded interior of the St. Cross Chapel is absolutely amazing.

Zoo Leipzig

Zoo
Zoos & Aquariums
Zoo Leipzig is a top destination in Germany, offering an immersive experience for visitors to observe 850 different animal species in habitats that closely resemble their natural environments. From watching elephants swim through an underwater glass wall to encountering black howler monkeys and playful penguins, the zoo provides a diverse range of experiences. Visitors can also explore themed areas such as the tropical Gondwanaland, home to Germany's only Komodo Dragon, and the unique Pongoland featuring various primate species.
Leipzig Zoo is hands down the best zoo I’ve ever been to – just go! The area is massive and beautifully designed, with tons of space to explore. The animals are surprisingly close, and there’s an amazing variety – I saw species I’d never even heard of before. There are plenty of spots to grab food or a drink along the way, which makes the whole visit super chill. The highlight for me was the tropical hall *Gondwanaland* – a huge indoor rainforest with its own climate. It’s seriously impressive and makes the whole experience feel really unique.

This Is the most amazing zoo I've ever been to. It's so big with the kids. We could only see a portion of it, but the jungle experience especially with the boat ride was so cool. All of the exhibits are wonderful. I would highly recommend to anyone to visit the zoo. Easily one of the best zoos in the world.

Leipzig Zoo is one of the best zoos I‘ve ever visited. Large enclosures. Many events throughout the day. Amazing infrastructure (you can find maps, sign posts, and directions for a tour that leads you through the entire zoo everywhere). They also don’t solely focus on the animals as mere entertainment but seek to inform kids in playful ways about preservation/biology/even physics in the aquarium. Leipzig Zoo also provides a variety of restaurants and snack bars that are evenly distributed across the entire Zoo. I wholly recommend visiting, whether alone or with friends and family. It’s an amazing and informative experience!

Best zoo in Germany especially with huge greenhouse of tropical forest and self moving boats along river with warm climate. Highly recommended for both adults and children alike
Rony W — Google review
This zoo park was fantastic. I would recommend this to everyone. There is so much to see and you should have water with you because food and water prices there is too expensive. WC is free which is very good. And I suggest you guys to go early there, zoo opens at 9 am and closes at 7pm. As I mentioned earlier there is lot to see so you probably will need some rest. And one good thing about this zoo park is that you see animals without any borders and it is kind of crazy but it is safe. So enjoy with your trip everyone.

Zoo Leipzig is a great place to visit with kids. The grounds are very clean with almost no smell, and there are nice play and climbing facilities for children. A fun and family-friendly zoo experience!

This zoo is arguably the best in Europe. The animals have the freedom to roam, creating a more natural environment, and plenty of dining options are available. Don’t miss the chance to watch the monkeys and explore Gondwanaland. It's truly a fantastic spot for some quality time with your children.

Diana Observation Tower

Observation deck
Outdoor Activities
The Diana Observation Tower, also known as the Dianaturm, is a 35-meter-tall tetragonal brick structure built in 1914. It offers breathtaking views of Karlovy Vary and its surroundings, with visibility extending up to 70 kilometers on clear days. Visitors can reach the tower by taking well-marked trails from the town center or enjoying a short funicular railway ride.
Diana Observation Tower is a great spot for panoramic views over Karlovy Vary. You can either hike up or take the funicular, which runs (at least in summer) every 15 minutes. Funicular is located right next to the Grandhotel Pupp. Once you reach the top, the tower is just a few steps away. There’s even an elevator inside, so you don’t need to climb the stairs—especially nice on a hot day. From the top, you get stunning views of the city and the surrounding forest. Definitely worth a visit if you're in town! 🗼
Cyntia P — Google review
Diana Observation Tower is a must-see attraction in Karlovy Vary! Not only does it offer stunning panoramic views of the city and surrounding forests, but the entire area is peaceful and beautifully maintained. After enjoying the scenery from the top, you can relax at one of the lovely cafés nearby — a perfect place to sip coffee, enjoy a snack, and take in the fresh mountain air. A truly delightful experience for nature lovers and travelers alike!

The Diana Observation Tower is one of the most beautiful spots in Karlovy Vary! The view from the top is absolutely breathtaking — you can see the entire town surrounded by lush green hills. The ride up by funicular is scenic and relaxing, and there’s a lovely forest walk if you prefer hiking. The café near the tower is cozy and perfect for a short break. A must-visit place for anyone coming to Karlovy Vary!

Beautiful 360 degree view of the region. There's also a small, budget-friendly kiosk selling street food and drinks in front of the tower. If you don't have any serious limitations, I suggest getting a one-way ticket. Take the funicular up and walk down while enjoying the view. Observation tower itself is free. You pay for the funicular.

St. Peter Cathedral, a magnificent example of High Gothic architecture, stands proudly in the heart of Regensburg, dominating the skyline with its impressive bell towers. Originally constructed around 700 and later rebuilt in 1273 after a fire, this stunning cathedral is not only an architectural marvel but also home to the renowned Regensburger Domspatzen choir.
Amazing place to Visit. Such an incredible architectural work. But if you need to go inside, you have to see their religious activities time. Because at that time doors were closed to the visitors.every thing was fine and tremendous work and were well maintained to the future generation.

St. Peter’s Cathedral is absolutely breathtaking. The Gothic architecture is stunning, with soaring spires, intricate stonework, and beautiful stained glass windows that create a peaceful, awe-inspiring atmosphere inside. It’s hard not to be impressed by the history and craftsmanship. Even if you’re not typically into churches, this one is worth the stop. It’s right in the heart of Regensburg, so very easy to visit while exploring the old town. Highly recommend taking a few quiet moments inside—truly a highlight of the city.
Todd R — Google review
Massive pure Gernan gothic church that was built from the end of the 13th to the beginning of the 16th century using the architecture of French cathedrals as an example. The inside is dark and has beautiful details like the silver altar. The stained glass windows from the 13th and 14th century are impressive and the most extensive, still preserved, collection of medieval stained glass in the German-speaking world. An interesting detail was a large waterwell with a hoist and bucket inside the church which was used as a secure source of water for the clergy, cathedral staff and cleaning.
Seimen B — Google review
The cathedral is truly impressive! A magnificent structure that’s hundreds of years old. I can’t even say whether I liked it more from the outside or the inside. Every day in summer, the organ plays at noon, it’s absolutely amazing! An architectural masterpiece that definitely deserves attention. The only downside is that the exterior has been under renovation for many years.
Boltomatis — Google review
Learned so much about German history from our Viking excursion to Regensburg Cathedral. Stepping into this medieval masterpiece, we were instantly awed by its towering Gothic architecture and the sheer scale of the place. The amazing stained glass windows, glowing with centuries-old craftsmanship, were absolutely breathtaking. Our guide wove fascinating tales about the cathedral’s medieval sculptures and its historical significance as a key center of Christianity in Europe, making the past feel alive and vibrant. The world’s largest hanging organ was a true marvel, suspended like something out of a dream, and its presence added to the cathedral’s awe-inspiring atmosphere. Learning about the Regensburg bishopric’s influence gave us a deeper appreciation for the city’s role in shaping European history. This cathedral is a must-see for anyone visiting Regensburg—its beauty and stories will leave you speechless. Highly recommend making time for this incredible landmark!

Krämerbrücke, also known as the chandlers bridge, is a historic landmark in Erfurt, Germany. It is the longest inhabited bridge in Europe and features half-timbered houses that now house galleries, cafes, antique shops, and boutiques. This medieval bridge offers a glimpse into the city's rich history and provides stunning views of Erfurt from its cobblestone street.
This is probably the first thing you should visit as a tourist in Erfurt - it's beautiful, there's lots of cute little shops, you can get some ice cream and sit and enjoy the view of this beautiful bridge and all the people who are walking past. There were lots of tourist groups, but it was still relatively quiet. I'd really recommend coming here!

The Krämerbrücke in Erfurt is the longest bridge in Europe that is completely covered with inhabited buildings. It spans the Gera River and connects Benediktsplatz with Wenigemarkt in the heart of the old town. Small shops, galleries, and artisan workshops line the bridge, giving it a charming medieval atmosphere. It is one of Erfurt’s most famous landmarks and a popular spot for both locals and visitors.

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?

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.

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.

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.

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.

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).

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).

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.

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.

Allianz Arena, home to Bayern Munich, is a renowned football stadium and one of the most impressive athletic venues globally. Designed by Herzog & de Meuron, its unique architecture features 2,784 ETFE plastic panels that give it a distinctive appearance resembling an inflatable cushion with translucent air pockets. What sets it apart is its luminous exterior that changes color based on the team playing: red for Bayern, blue for TSV 1860, and white for Germany.
An iconic stadium and a must-see for football fans! ⚽ The design is incredible especially when it’s lit up at night. The area is clean and well-organized, with easy access by metro. Even if there’s no match, the tour and museum are definitely worth it.

The FC Bayern stadium (Allianz Arena) has a very high capacity. The exterior design is modern and can change color at night. It houses both a Museum and an FC Bayern Store. Unfortunately, I didn't have enough time to join the Arena Tour, which is a real shame. The downside of this stadium is that there are very few nice photo spots outside, apart from taking pictures with the stadium itself, and if you come by U-Bahn, it's a very long and exhausting walk.

Wonderful arena and an amazing experience. My dad received a VIP tour and museum tickets for his 59th birthday. We were guided around the stadium and even taken to exclusive areas like the locker room and the tunnel where the players walk out before the match. The museum has absolutely everything, and the layout is beautifully done. I was also pleasantly surprised that the stadium shop is not overpriced at all. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience. Even though I’m not a football fan myself, we went because of my father, and I actually felt sad to leave because I enjoyed it so much. Go Bayern München! 🫶🏻❤️⚽️

We booked the English speaking tour with Franz, and he was very informative and engaging. There was plenty of Oporto take photos, and you could visit the change rooms, sit in the stands and on the substitutes bench. Afterwards we visited the museum which was very interactive. You could take a photo of yourself and have it appear on a scrolling wall of photos, and there was also the opportunity to take a photo with your favourite players. There are things for kids to do, such as building their own trophy with blocks, as well as a stadium with Lego. There is a small futsal pitch for them to play on, as well as climbing equipment. It’s definitely worth the visit for the whole family.

The museum is surprisingly rich with history, displaying iconic moments, trophies, and even a small cinema where you can sit and enjoy a short film about the club’s journey. The stadium tour itself is well-organized, informative, and gives you access to some amazing angles you don’t normally get to see. Staff throughout the entire experience were warm, helpful, and very professional. Highly recommended if you’re a football fan or simply appreciate great sporting culture and storytelling.

A kind of “Central Park” in Munich – a very nice place to visit. The park is spacious, green, and perfect for a walk or to just relax. A special highlight is the surfers on the river – definitely a must-see attraction that makes this place unique.

One of the best places of the city. Perfect for strolling around, making picnics, relax to the sound of the leaves. For me, the best spot is the lake, where you can sit next to lots of ducks and other kinds of bird.

The English Garden in autumn is absolutely stunning. The trees turn golden, red, and orange, creating a beautiful contrast with the rivers and meadows. It’s perfect for peaceful walks, cycling, or just relaxing under the colorful leaves. The atmosphere feels calm and magical — a must-visit spot to experience Munich’s fall beauty.

A must see if you're in Munich. Absolutely an amazing park with lots to see and do there. Playgrounds for kids, lot's of places to get something to eat and drink.

A true gem of a park in Munich. Oh this park is huge it'll take a few hours to take it all in.

So, if you like cars its a must stop in München, I would highly recommend you to buy your tickets before arriving, it can get a bit full if you dont plan in advanced, the Museum has free lockers so its also a big benefit. Also in the museum is card only ( weird for being Germany) but a great thing to know. Theres different types of tours available and also shops. In the other side of the museum ( crossing the bridge) theres BMW Welt which is also nice and free

Fuggerei

Mentioned on

Foundation
Museum
Fuggerei is a historic public housing complex that has been in operation since the 16th century and features an on-site museum. The city center, where Fuggerei is located, also boasts attractions such as the town hall, street fountains, Weberhaus, numerous churches, a zoo and botanical garden, a football stadium, Mozart's house, MAN museum, Zeughaus, Maximilianmuseum and Riegele beer museum.
Such a unique and interesting place! It’s the world’s oldest social housing complex, and you can really feel the history walking through the little streets. The apartments are tiny and cozy, and it’s cool to see how people lived here for the past hundreds of years and so. Keep in mind though that people still live there! There’s also a few little museums inside some of the residences that go over the story of how the place started, how they lived, struggles, etc. As well as a bunker that you can explore. Definitely worth a quick visit if you’re in Augsburg!

Went on a Augsburg Fugger Tour. Last stop was the Fuggerei. Have always been curious about it and it's history. Quite amazing that it still exists till this day an age and functioning the same way it always has. Absolutely incredible. The grounds are extremely well kept and just a beautiful part of living history. Must go when you visit Augsburg. After the tour you can also visit tiny beer garden by the entrance.

Really cool to hear about how this social housing was started. The people can live here for €1 per year, and just have to be Catholic, pray everyday, and be in need. It’s definitely worth the €8 entrance fee.

It was a wonderful experience visiting the world’s oldest public housing. We went on a weekday morning, and the atmosphere was calm and peaceful, which made exploring even more enjoyable. Purchasing the ticket at the entrance was simple, and the site itself was easy to navigate. The area is beautifully maintained, with so much attention to detail that you really feel immersed in its rich history. Walking through the space gives you a true sense of cultural heritage, and it’s both educational and inspiring. I would definitely recommend this visit to anyone interested in culture and history—it’s a unique opportunity to step back in time and experience something truly special.

I visited The Fuggerei on two different trips, once in 2010 and then again in 2023. It's a neat experience with in Augsburg and i definitely recommend checking it out. The history here is interesting for sure and the architecture in germany in general always amazes me. I would recommend tickets in advance, although was not busy when we went. My aunt had picked them up ahead of time for us.
Mark L — Google review
Fuggerei in Augsburg is often touted as a must-see historical site, but unless you’re deeply interested in social housing history, it’s largely underwhelming. The quaint buildings and quiet atmosphere feel more like a sleepy neighborhood than a captivating attraction. The real standout is the WWII bunker—an unexpectedly compelling and haunting part of the visit. It offers a chilling, immersive look into wartime life and far surpasses the rest of the experience. If you’re nearby and curious, stop by for the bunker, but otherwise, it’s probably not worth going out of your way.
Keerthy N — Google review
A fascinating historical place that is definitely worth visiting. It beautifully combines the charm of the past with the spirit of the present. I loved the peaceful atmosphere and the feeling of stepping back in time. The houses and small museums provide a wonderful glimpse into old life, and everything is well organized for visitors. Highly recommended when in Augsburg.

The Spitalturm, also known as the Hospital Tower, is the newest and tallest structure among the city fortifications of Rothenburg. Built between 1360 and 1380, it bears the inscription "Pax intrantibus, salus exeuntibus" which means "Peace to those who enter, greet those who leave.
The walk around the town walls is great to do around sunset, it wasn't very busy whilst we walked the walls and gave great views of the Rothenberg rooftops. Whilst walking the walls look out for names on stones that are set into the walls, these are the names of people from around the world that have brought a section of the wall to help fund the restoration and upkeep of the town. Walking the walls is free to do so well worth a visit!

Würzburg Residence

Castle
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.

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)!

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.

Unforgettable memories were made and we cannot wait to visit once again!

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.

Ulm Minster

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! 😊

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!

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 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.

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!

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!

Visiting this place is a must if you appreciate automobiles and the culture surrounding them. Although it is located a bit outside the city's heart, the experience is worth the travel. Be prepared for a potentially bustling atmosphere, as many people share your interest. To avoid queues and ensure entry, consider purchasing your tickets ahead of your visit. 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. Coming from my time in the Mercedes Benz museum down the road which did their story telling impeccably. Definitely go here though, would highly reccommend if you like looking at high horsepower monsters and multi million euro cars!

Car enthusiasts will love it. The museum will give you a diving in the history of Germany and automobiles. The visit starts at the visitor center going up to the 8th floor down. There’s parking on the streets nearby and some parking nearby the museum. Parking garage is also available nearby. Tickets may be bought online or in person. It is kids friendly and wheelchair accessible. There’s a souvenir store, a restaurant and more downstairs from the visitor center.

The collection is stunning, with so many iconic cars from throughout Porsche’s history displayed in a beautifully curated space.
