Thousands of years of history is experienced by those who travel Germany’s Romantic Road with its world famous historic cities, fortresses and palaces, from Würzburg to Neuschwanstein Castle.

The picturesque Baroque town of Würzburg is located on the River Main amid the Franconian wine region and is dominated by the mighty Marienberg Fortress.

Tauberbischofsheim is one of the oldest cities in the popular Tauber Valley that was once completely walled.

Rothenburg ob der Tauber is where Germany’s Middle Ages have been preserved up to the present day with huge entrance gates and high walls that lead into the former imperial city. The High Gothic main church of Saint Jacob gleams with both the Twelve Messenger Altar and the Holy Blood Altar.

Bavarian king, Ludwig The Second, made Füssen into a fairy tale place with Castle Neuschwanstein the realisation of his amazing world of fantasy. The castle was in construction for seventeen years and in every way the idyll of ancient German knighthood.

The wealth of occidental history, art and culture makes a journey on the Romantic Road a most fascinating adventure into the past. A dream journey through a country and its history.
