Moving forward to the Old Town Hall, and Cathedral (visit from the outside), which is is complex of three-section buildings from the 13th century. The popular expressions “to put something on the long bench” (to postpone something) and “to sit at the green table” (to take important decisions) was originated from this very own location. The town hall consists of the Town Hall tower, the Gothic Imperial Chamber building and the baroque Town Hall.

The cathedral is based upon the fascinating Gothic architecture and is one of the known landmarks of the state. You will also be able to view incorporation of French Gothic architectural themes since the architect under whose supervision the new cathedral in 1280 was built, had been trained in France.

Stop At: Old Stone Bridge, Steinerne Brucke, 93059, Regensburg, Bavaria Germany

Next, move over to the Stone Bridge whose sound end serves as an ancient city gate. Formerly, a wooden bridge approximately 100 meters long was built by Charles the Great (who was the king of Franks). However, due to being vulnerable by the incoming floods and traffic it was dismantled and a new stone bridge was formed. This bridge took eleven years to be formed and was used by Louis VII of France and his army to cross the Danube.
