The 100 best things to do in Germany 24/33

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.

70. Bamberg

The beautiful city of Bamberg is built – like Rome – on seven hills, each with its own church. Much of the city has been under UNESCO World Heritage Protection since 1993. Of particular interest is the old Town Hall, with its rococo architecture and its position in the middle of the Regnitz river! Bamberg`s cathedral – which dates from the 11th century – and St. Michael’s Monastery are two further attractions in this lovely city.

Bamberg lies in Upper Franconia, Bavaria, with the closest airports Frankfurt, Munich or Nuremberg. It can be reached from Nuremberg by train in less than an hour.

 

71. Mainau Island

The Island of Mainau, 45 hectares, lies off the shores of Lake Constance in southwest Germany. The “Flower Island”, as it is known by locals, gets its name from the million roses, tulips, dahlias and flowering perennials which bloom in its parks and gardens, as well as its 150 year old Arboretum with its huge sequoias and towering palms. Palms and citrus plants round off the gardens, giving the island a mediterranean atmosphere in the summer.

Mainau also boasts a castle and a church and many attractions for children. With its idyllic setting in the lake, it is a wonderfully relaxing holiday venue for the whole family. Mainau can be reached by ferry from Meersburg. The nearest airport is Friedrichshafen, while the nearest railway station, Uhldingen-Mühlhofen, is only 6 kilometres away.

 

72. Museum of Art (Düsseldorf)

Düsseldorf’s Museum of Art, which is located in the center of Düsseldorf on the Rhine river, first opened its doors to the public in 2001 and has seen a steady stream of art lovers ever since. It is famed all over the world for its collections of modern painters such as Dali or Miró and its artefacts ranging from mediaeval times to the present day. Its famous Hentrich Glass Collections boasts examples of glasswork from contemporary glass artists right back to glass objects from the Romans.

The Museum of Art is located around 30 minutes by bus from the railway station, or 3.5 kilometres from the city center.
