The 100 best things to do in Germany  18/33

Here are the 100 best things to do in Germany that will show you the charm, beauty and cultural diversity of this country.

Germany is rich with surprises and contrasts just waiting to be discovered by the discerning tourist. A country of enchanting little villages nestling between lofty and imposing mountains, fairytale castles and churches and lush vineyards rolling down towards the banks of the Rhine or the Mosel, Germany also boasts of the more rumbustious Munich Beer Festival and the Cologne Carnival, a very fine choice of gateaux, sausages and beer and a powerful and somewhat spooky folkloric tradition.

52. Ozeaneum (Stralsund)

Stralsund, a town in Western Pomerania on the Baltic coast and a former member of the Hanseatic League, is by reason of its gothic brick architecture and its picturesque waterfront location a particularly attractive one. It also hosts the Ozeaneum, which opened in 2008 and was named European Museum of the Year in 2010 and which boasts the largest whale exhibition in the world and a total of 45 tanks. For lovers of underwater worlds, the Ozeaneum Stralsund is a must!

Stralsund can be reached by train from Berlin or Hamburg. The Ozeaneum is twenty minutes on foot from Stralsund’s main railway station.

 

53. Allgäu

The Allgäu is the name given to the pre-alpine region of Swabia in southern Germany. It is a region of lush green hills and mountains, sparkling rivers and lakes and quaint villages. It is also famed for both its mountain sports and its dairy products, in particular cheese.

It is the perfect region for a relaxing holiday, in particular since both its air and its water are said to have healing properties! Its largest town, Kempten (also one of Germany’s oldest settlements) can be reached by train from Memmingen-Allgäu airport in around 50 minutes. The nearest international airports are Munich and Zurich.

 

54. Island of Sylt

The Island of Sylt, off the North Sea coast of Schleswig-Holstein, is often referred to as “The Queen of the North Sea”. At 99 square kilometres, it is the largest of the North Frisian islands and famed for its sporting events – in particular the annual Windsurfing World Cup – and for its cooking, which is often praised by international connoisseurs. With its 40 kilometres of long sandy beaches and its nature parks, Sylt is an idyllic place for a restful seaside holiday.

Since 1927 the island has been connected to the mainland by the Hindenburgdamm, so that it is easily accessible by shuttle bus or car. Alternatively, there is a ferry from the Danish island Rømø (40 minutes), or you can fly directly to Sylt, which has its own airport.
