Germany Old Town of Regensburg

“The best views of the bridge and the Old Town are from across the river, opposite the lookout tower. I took so many photos from this spot because I couldn’t get over how perfect the scene was! I loved how the bridge leads your eye towards the historic Old Town, the lookout tower and cathedral’s spires taking centre stage. We spent a good amount of time just lingering by the river, watching the ducks swim across the colourful reflections cast by the historic buildings opposite us.”

“The Old Town Hall was, for us anyways, the most interesting place in Regensburg. [...] The interior of the Old Town Hall is very beautiful, especially the wooden ceilings. The main halls remain medieval in appearance, but we really felt like we were in the Dark Ages when we visited the torture chamber. I kid you not- there is a torture chamber in the Town Hall! We got to see all the devices that were used to torture people into a confession, whether they were guilty or not. It was really interesting (and a bit uncomfortable) to think about what these people had to go through. Wow- were they brutal back in the day!”

“The thing I remember most about Regensburg’s Old Town was the details. I loved the clocks, doors, murals and the wrought iron signs. It was fun to always be on the lookout for an interesting little detail here and there!”
