Our city Dinkelsbühl
The large district town of Dinkelsbühl on the Bavarian-Württemberg border has a remarkable town history, which is omnipresent in the historic town center.
Immerse yourself in the history of the former free imperial city, first documented in 1188. Ravaged by the Thirty Years' War and assigned to the Kingdom of Bavaria in 1806, the town has a relic of bygone days that is rarely found in Germany: a completely intact townscape, embedded in the fully preserved medieval town wall.
The fact that the town was spared during the Second World War means that visitors to Dinkelsbühl can still immerse themselves in the intact, original world of the Middle Ages and experience unexpected treasures of history up close.
Situated on the Wörnitz, Dinkelsbühl offers romance by the water and meadows. The character of a large architectural monument still characterizes the townscape today. Throughout the year, numerous events and festivities invite visitors from near and far to the town. The Whitsun meeting of the Transylvanian Saxons, the historic “Kinderzeche” festival in July each year, which is famous throughout Germany, the historic old town festival in mid-September and the enchanting Christmas market in the weeks leading up to the festive season are considered hotspots among tourists.
