EXPERIENCE LIMBURG

Limburg has one of the few town centres to survive the war intact. With its winding, cobbled streets and pretty half-timbered houses around the cathedral, the old town is both historically interesting and warmly inviting. For those looking to escape into the countryside, the Lahn river valley offers plenty of opportunities for day trips.

  • LIMBURG OLD TOWN

    Along with the Hoher Dom, so named for its commanding position over the River Lahn, the highlight of the city is undoubtedly its magnificent and intricate half-timbered houses. Lovingly restored and enjoying listed status, they are one of the region's most visited attractions. Another destination worthy of a visit is the Pallottine Mission!

  • LIMBURG ON VIEW

    Climb Burgberg hill to the imposing St. George's Cathedral, one of medieval Germany's most alluring sacred buildings. Also worth a visit is the stone Lahnbrücke bridge. Or take a tour of the town with the Limburg's very own nightwatchman.

  • TASTE LIMBURG

    Limburg offers plenty of opportunities for eating well. Try the Weinhaus Schultes or the Werner-Senger-Haus for some traditional regional food and beer. The Bäckerei Kosmol bakery produces fruit bread and deep-fried pastries known as Muzenblätter according to traditional recipes.

  • LIMBURG OUT & ABOUT

    Located at the edge of the Westerwald and Taunus forests, Limburg is ideal for all kinds of sporting and leisure activities, from jogging and cycling to water sports and climbing.

  • LIMBURG EXCURSIONS

    There are many attractions to discover around Limburg, such as Schloss Weilburg and Schloss Oranienstein. Or take a boat trip on the River Lahn. Don't miss the historically significant Deutsches Eck headland, a small tongue of land where the Rhine and Mosel rivers meet.
