Itinerary
1
Bamberg Cathedral
Enter the resting place of the only canonized imperial couple, Henry II and Kunigunde. Look for the famous life-size medieval statue whose true identity remains an unsolved mystery.
20 minutes
2
Old Court
Step through the "Beautiful Gateway" into a romantic courtyard framed by medieval buildings. This exceptionally preserved complex recently served as a filming location for The Three Musketeers.
15 minutes
3
Neue Residenz Bamberg
Stroll through a baroque sea of 4,500 roses in the prince-bishop’s private garden. The terrace offers the city's best panoramic views.
25 minutes
4
Our Lady's Parish Church (Upper Parish)
Admire Bamberg's only purely Gothic church. It is famous for its towering choir and "miraculous" image of Mary
20 minutes
5
Little Venice
Walk along the riverbank to view this charming row of 17th-century fishermen’s cottages. The half-timbered houses with their tiny gardens right on the water create the city's most picturesque scene.
20 minutes
6
Altes Rathaus
An architectural oddity - built on water because the bishop refused to grant land for it. Check the protruding fresco on the side, to see a playful 3D effect.
