Walhalla is an imposing neo-classical edifice located near Regensburg, Germany. The marble hall inside houses plaques and busts of illustrious Germans throughout history. Visitors can explore the area, which offers clean facilities and refreshments. The temple's awe-inspiring architecture features intricate carvings and majestic columns. It provides a fantastic view of the Danube river and the city in the distance, especially at dusk when visitors can enjoy a beautiful sunset.
Simply a splendid spot! This beautiful, grand monument offers magnificent views over the Danube river from the high above. There is a cark park 5min walking distance away (€2.5 per car) and public toilets free of charge next to the monument. Walhalla itself is free to admire outside and it costs around €5 to enter inside. This is a perfect place to spend an entire day just sitting, admiring and relaxing, if weather permits. I loved it 🤩

Magnificent views as the temple is perched on a hill. Trail connects the parking area to the temple grounds. Only outside the temple was accessible. Multi-level balconies at the front gave different perspectives of the temple. Plenty of parking on site. 2.5 Euro per car paid at a booth Cafe within the grounds. Free toilet as well.

A great monument well worth visiting. The views are stunning, and the best part is that it's accessible for people with reduced mobility or families with strollers. A must-see if you're in Regensburg.
Macarena P — Google review
We were in the area and had a friend tagging along this travel trip. We decided to visit Wallhalla and let him see this wonderful building, the inside and the outside. He was a little mobility challenged, and did not take the steps. There is a pathway around, and although its a longer walk, the slope is a gradual upward walk. It was misting and thus we did NOT walk down any of the steps because of the risk of slipping. I have been on a dry day and feel much safer descending down the step when they are dry. I cannot stress enough to be safe and go slow as any misstep could result in serious injury. Please follow all noted safety precautions too. I've attached some pictures of this visit. Note, walking around is free. Parking cost approx. $2.5 euros.

A very imposing monument that is well worth a visit. The view from it's location is breathtaking and worth it just for that. The architecture is also awesome and gives you an appreciation for the awe Greek temples must have inspired in they heyday.

We have driven past by this building/ hill on the motorway so this year we decided to check it out. About 15 minutes drive from the No3 motorway. Nice little curly road running up to the hill, to the car park behind. From the car park another about 10 minutes very comfortable walk needed to reach out to this magnificent building. If you have ever been to Athens (Greece) your brain probably gets confused for a second! The whole monument was magnificent, really great, with superb views over the German countryside and of course the river Danube! I’m glad we stopped as it was a very unique experience! It is suitable for wheelchair users (with some support). On the hilltop there’s a little bar and of course restrooms, too.

Highly recommended! The waitresses are extremely nice and all speak English. The food was delicious German cuisine. The venison is fresh from the local area and was so tender you could pull it apart with your fork. The atmosphere is the paramount German tavern feel. The prices are much more affordable than you would find in Regensburg. Overall wonderful experience, if you’re visiting Walhalla you should definitely stop here if you’re hungry.

The Chinesischer Turm in Donaustauf is a stunning architectural gem that captivates visitors with its intricate design and picturesque surroundings. While it’s unfortunate that access is limited, especially outside of the few days it opens during late summer, the tower remains a beautiful sight to behold. Many travelers find themselves enchanted by its charm, even if they wish for more opportunities to explore inside.
It's a beauty and a pity (though understandable when communal purse strings are tight) that it's been locked to the public except on few days in late summer.

Nestled in the heart of Nuremberg, La Casa dei Matti is a culinary gem that promises an unforgettable dining experience. Known for its inviting and stylish atmosphere, this charming eatery serves up some of the best pizza around, with standout options like their Sole pizza topped with fresh tomatoes, mozzarella, and parmesan. While you might encounter a bit of a wait during busy times—like 35 minutes on occasion—the deliciousness that awaits makes it all worthwhile.
Food is tasty but want to underline service. There are very nice and friendly people. I think its good place to visit in this area
Pavel K — Google review
The pizza is made in front of you, which is nice. 2 stars because she didn't assign me a seat when I came in, but when I proceeded to take a seat, she moved me. Also because I overheard her saying to two other patrons that if a larger group comes they will have to leave(?). What kind of business model is that?

(Translated by Google) Attention! It's really a bit difficult to describe and rate this restaurant accurately and fairly. From the outside, unspectacular and meaningless. The "main room" is very pleasantly furnished and conveys Italian flair very authentically and stylishly. The fact that the open kitchen is actually directly adjacent is certainly not ideal, but it can still be tolerated. Small menu with a main focus on pizza. There is a wide selection of these and they are well prepared and taste very tasty. In terms of price, everything is mostly very fair and rather cheap. When we greeted her (we were the first guests and the only ones for the next 90 minutes), the boss seemed very moody and slightly unfriendly, but that was relaxed a bit later. Something was still missing, some little thing would make a big difference, maybe something to nibble on to pass the waiting time or to brighten up the bare tables... (Original) Aufgemerkt! Ist jetzt echt etwas schwierig, dieses Restaurant treffend und fair zu beschreiben und bewerten. Von außen unspektakulär und nichts-aussagend. Der "Hauptraum" ist ganz angenehm eingerichtet und transportiert italienischen Flair sehr authentisch und stilvoll. Dass die offene Küche tatsächlich direkt angrenzt und ist wahrlich nicht ideal aber kann noch verkraftet werden. Kleine Speisekarte mit Hauptaugenmerk auf Pizza. Davon gibt es ein vielfältige Auswahl und die sind super zubereitet und schmecken sehr lecker. Preislich überwiegend alles sehr fair und eher günstig. Die Chefin wirkte bei der Begrüßung (wir waren die ersten Gäste und einzigen für die nächsten 90 Minuten) schon sehr launisch und leicht unfreundlich, jedoch wurde das später etwas aufgelockert. Irgendwas fehlte trotzdem, irgend eine Kleinigkeit würde viel ausmachen, vielleicht was zum Knabbern um die Wartezeit zu überbrücken oder die kahlen Tische aufzuhübschen...

(Translated by Google) If you have time and patience, you will be spoiled with taste and deliciousness in an invitingly chic atmosphere. I have often been to La Casa dei Matti with visitors from Hamburg, my relatives and acquaintances. The starters were always excellent, the pizza was very, very flawless and the pasta was an excellent culinary delight. The passionate cooking skills that the real Italian chef and owner Carmelina transfers to the dishes with a lot of heart and soul are reflected very successfully in the guests' plates. Conclusion: Best Italian food at a moderate price. (Original) Wer Zeit und Geduld mitbringt, wird in einem einladend schicken Ambiente, geschmacklich und köstlich verwöhnt. Ich war mit Besuch aus Hamburg, meiner Anverwandschaft und Bekannten, des öfteren, in La Casa dei Matti. Die Vorspeisen waren immer hervorragend, die Pizza sehr, sehr tadellos gelungen und die Pasta eine hervorragend lukulische Gaumenfreude. Die leidenschaftlichen Kochkünste, die, die echte italenische Köchin und Inhaberin Carmelina, mit viel Herzblut auf die Speisen überträgt, spiegeln sich sehr gelungen in den Tellern der Gäste. Fazit:.. Beste italienische Speisen zu einem moderaten Preis.

Donaustauf Castle Ruins, perched majestically on a granite rock, offer an enchanting glimpse into history and breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. Founded around 1100, these well-preserved ruins are easily accessible with ample parking available. The journey to the castle involves a scenic yet steep climb past a picturesque cemetery, making it an adventure in itself. As you explore the site, you'll discover intriguing features like dungeons and informative boards detailing the castle's rich history.
There are so many castle ruins in Germany. I wouldn’t make a special stop for this one. However, if you are in the Regensberg area anyway, this makes for a lovely one or two hours. Beautiful views. Not busy at all. Just a relaxing place to sit and or explore.
Sarah T — Google review
The Donaustauf Castle Ruins (Burgruine Donaustauf) are a hidden gem that offer both history and incredible views. Sitting on a hilltop just above the town of Donaustauf, these medieval ruins date back to the 10th century and give visitors a real sense of stepping back in time. Exploring the old stone walls, towers, and pathways feels like discovering a forgotten world. While much of the castle is in ruins, enough remains to imagine what life might have been like centuries ago. One of the best parts is the stunning panoramic view over the Danube River and the surrounding countryside—it’s especially beautiful at sunset. The site is free to visit and easy to reach with a short uphill walk from town. It doesn’t take long to explore—maybe 30 minutes to an hour—but it’s a perfect spot to relax, take in the scenery, and enjoy a bit of quiet history. For anyone visiting Donaustauf or nearby Regensburg, the castle ruins are a great stop. They’re simple but full of charm, and the views alone make it worth the visit.

Brie B — Google review
I wasn’t prepared for how beautiful this place would be. The pictures don’t do it justice. I’ll add my own but am left with the same problem. There’s a meandering network of paths from the outer wall to the inner area. If you read the signs you’ll find that they attempted to strike a balance between leaving the ruins in tact and leaving the nature in tact and they did this really well. Historically, this was a Celtic castle, and later a medieval fortress. It was destroyed and built up multiple times. Well worth a visit.
Linda E — Google review
It's such a cool place to walk around. There is good parking and a really nice cobblestone road leading into the area. Informational signs are posted around telling the history of the castle and surrounding area. I especially enjoyed the drawing of what the castle looked like in its heyday. The view from the top is spectacular. You can see for miles around on a clear day and the confluence of the Danube and the Regan. There is also a great view of the Wallhalla and nearby church. This would probably be accessible to a wheelchair or stroller if you stick to the main paths but does get quite muddy after a rain. Overall, would totally recommend.
Elizabeth H — Google review
I visited this place on a saturday in mid of may for sunset along with my friends. There is a small hike that we need to do to reach this place. The hike is easy as the paths are residential roads and a few steps when nearing the ruins. There is a grave yard on to the right at the entrance of the ruins. After reaching the top of the ruins, we spent few hours before we leave. The view was wonderful. We got to see the cathedral of Regensberg as a tiny structure, river, bridge, and a beautiful sunset. The buses to go back to Regensberg was just once an hour and that too till 9 pm. So take care of the time you spend on top. I am adding few photos as well🙂

Moussaka - 1 star. This isn't even close to the original. The top layer takes up the 90% of the dish, it's dry and tastes like the omelet with the great amount of flour. Bifteki were good, not the best, but good, They deserve a strong 4-star
