Deep in the Bavarian region is the town of Bamberg and was one of my favorites.
Bamberg is a town in Upper Franconia district in Bavaria, Germany, on the river Regnitz close to its confluence with the river Main. Bamberg had 79,000 inhabitants in 2022. The town dates back to the 9th century, when its name was derived from the nearby Babenberch castle. Cited as one of Germany's most beautiful towns, with medieval streets and buildings, the old town of Bamberg with around 2,400 timber houses has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1993.
1st thing i noticed was this date of 1521 and thinking how this building is 254 years OLDER than the US..... And in beautiful shape as with all the buildings on my visit.
back view of the Bamberg Cathedral, date construction was finished 1012 ad
And the front
Close up of a small section on the side of the Cathedral
Such a beautiful church. For some reason I misplaced all the pictures of the inside. Once found, will post later.
Just a random fountain with typical architecture in the background
So our guide said several famous movies were taken in this little hallway, sadly, I did not take note to what they were
Old 2nd story balcony inside the hall way
Bamberg was a very festive town
Bavarian architecture at its best
View of a old tower
Same tower, different view
Stunning
colorful don't you think?
So this royal palace was so big, I had to capture it in 3 images. This 1st one if showing the right side
and the left side, the sun eliminated this side different than the right and I could not bring out the colors quite as vibrant. But in person, it was quite stunning
Finally the center of the palace at 9:59 am lol FYI, the back side pretty much match the front.
magical to walk through this old city
A radium small church, so many to see in Bamberg
Everywhere I looked, I saw images like this. I had to really narrow down my selection for Focal World as I had just too many
Last one, next stop is Nuremberg
I thought this was a great picture to show just how small or narrow the Main River was we navigated on this part of the river cruise (which by the way) I would recommend to anyone!
