EXPERIENCE AMBERG

Among the best preserved medieval towns in Europe, the livable and lovable town of Amberg is a small modern-day Bavarian town with a great sense of tradition, set against a historical backdrop. There are myriad fountains and beer gardens, churches and monasteries to see and marvel at in what is considered the secret capital of the Palatinate.

    The historic old town centre, called the "Amberg egg" on account of its shape, is protected by a well-preserved city wall. Motor traffic is also barred from entering. Must-see attractions include the Amberg Stadtbrille (a medieval bridge), the Kurfürstliche Schloss, (Elector's castle), the Alte Veste (an old manor house) and the Amberg gates.

  • ENJOY AMBERG
