Bamberg is in Bayern, in the south, the country's industrial powerhouse around Munich and Stuttgart with the Alps and the Black Forest on the doorstep; winters bring snow and the occasional warm Föhn wind, summers are the warmest in Germany, and living costs are the highest. Getting around Bamberg is easiest by U-Bahn, S-Bahn, tram and bus, all covered by the Deutschlandticket that is valid on local and regional transport across Bayern and beyond; parking in city centres is scarce and either paid or limited by Parkscheibe, so public transport or a bike is usually quicker than driving.

We stayed two nights in Bamberg, allowing us two evenings and a full day to explore this beautiful city. Amazing buildings, great restaurants, plenty of choice to eat and drink.

Literally left half of my mind in Bamberg! 🧠✨📍 Walking along the Regnitz River on the Untere Brücke, you’re greeted by this striking sculpture (Centurione I by Igor Mitoraj). The fractured head standing against the historic river backdrop isn't just incredible art—it perfectly captures how a piece of your mind stays behind in this magical UNESCO city! 🚶‍♂️ Traveler’s Note: Bamberg is an absolute dream to explore on foot. Take your time walking along the water, enjoying the architecture, and soaking in these unexpected modern art spots blended into history. A timeless stop for anyone walking and eating their way through Germany! 🚶‍♂️🌍 #Bamberg #IgorMitoraj #GermanyTravel #WalkEatTravelWorld #UNESCO WorldHeritage

Pedestrians were given way to. Guide was knowledgable about all the history of which there was plenty. The Cathedral had FOUR spires, but very little ceiling paintings & not a lot of stained glass.

Beautiful little town. Well worth the visit. Wonderful old original architecture. Nice shops and restaurants and smoked beer.

A small and charming old town in Bavaria with a lovely medieval feel! One can explore the old town on foot and soak in the lovely architecture and warm streets. The highlights are the iconic old town hall, Altes Rathaus, a beautiful cathedral up on a hill and the lovely houses lining both sides of the river. The smoked beer is very famous here and we had a good meal in one of the quaint, old world restaurants on the main Street. This place is great for spending an idyllic and relaxed day in a town with oodles of old world charm!
