Parsberg castle

The Parsberg castle museum shows the life of people from Neumarkt, Parsberg, and Regensburg region over the centuries. The building (1200m²) is a real beauty and wonderfully photogenic!

Regensburg

Also known as: the northernmost city in Italy! Why? Because the winding city centre, the colourful houses, and small cafés radiate real Italian flair. The old town of Regensburg is an excellent example of an inner-European medieval trading city and was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2006 because of its historical monuments. Whether culture, art, or design, Regensburg has something to offer everyone. Also good to know: Regensburg has the highest concentration of bars and beer gardens.

Excursion to Amberg

The town of Amberg is a beautiful medieval gem. Amberg’s old town is one of the most well-preserved medieval towns in Europe. There is a lot going on in this town when it comes to art and culture. During a visit, you can look forward to a municipal theatre in a former church, various exhibitions and concerts, as well as a factory hall that makes art lovers’ hearts skip a beat. The world’s only air museum in Amberg is a wonderful destination, especially for children.

Walhalla memorial

This is one of the most important German national monuments of the 19^th century! The temple, made completely of precious marble, rises above the enormous, stepped base. The imposing building is worth a visit for its architecture and history!
