This is a second-hand review…read more.. While Spousal Unit and I were on a recent river cruise in Germany I came down with a "code in my dose". This derailed my "eat a sausage at every stop" plan. Fortunately SU covered for me as she went happily a'wandering while I sipped hot tea back on the ship. Her comments on the restaurant's traditional Regensberger wurst: fabulous, especially with sauerkraut and sweet mustard on a brodchen roll. She did not bring me a wurst back (her excuse: "it would have been cold", damnit) but she did bring a jar of their mustard: wunderbar! (One of the couples we met on the cruise had been to the Wusrtkuchl before, and they actually brought a spare suitcase to load up for the trip home!). I guess a vicarious thrill is better than none. Next time!

This impressive twelfth-century structure has straddled the Danube for more than 900 years, and…read moreit's a masterpiece of medieval engineering. The oldest of its kind in Europe, this 310-meter-long bridge is now used only for pedestrian/bicycle traffic and offers the best views of the Danube and Regensburg. The Stone Bridge was built in only eleven years, probably in 1135-46. Louis VII of France and his army used it to cross the Danube on their way to the Second Crusade. It served as a model for other stone bridges built in Europe in the 12th and 13th centuries: the Elbe bridge (now Augustus Bridge) in Dresden, London Bridge across the Thames, the Pont d'Avignon across the Rhône and the Judith Bridge (predecessor of the Charles Bridge) across the Vltava in Prague. It remained the only bridge across the Danube at Regensburg for about 800 years until the construction of the Nibelungen Bridge in 1930s. For centuries it was the only bridge over the river between Ulm and Vienna making Regensburg into a major center of trade and government. Brückturm (Bridge Tower) is the last surviving of the bridge's three towers. It's very impressive to know the 17th-century tower clock with its dependable mechanism has kept time since 1652.

St Peter's Cathedral is a Roman Catholic Church located in Regensburg, Germany. It was too…read moredifficult to take a photo ofnthe exterior, because of the vast size of the church. The church is 104 Feet high and 114 Feet wide. This historical church was completed in 1520. We toured the interior, which was free of charge. The most impressive thing of all were the gorgeous stain glass windows throughout. The colors were so vivid, my photos don't do them justice. I am always struck by the sheer feeling of peace and holiness inside churches. The church is magnificent and I wish I could hear the organ ( HUGE- see photo). With everything going on in our world right now, I appreciated the opportunity for some time for reflection and tranquillity

Dom St Peter or Regensburger Dom (St. Peter's Cathedral, also known as Regensburg Cathedral) is…read morewell-known for her Gothic architecture in Bavaria. It is a landmark for the city of Regensburg, and the seat of the Catholic Diocese of Regensburg. The structure is considered the most significant Gothic work in southern Germany. This impressively preserved church is notable for its two 105-meter-high spires. Its spacious interior is of great beauty, and its most notable feature being its superb 13th- and 14th-century stained glass windows. Therefore, it's recommended as the top attraction to visit in Regensburg. You will not be disappointed for sure. The original church called Niedermünster, which was built west of where the current cathedral stands, was built around the year 700. That fact itself is amazing, but unfortunately it was burned down in 1273. The new one was built in 1280 with an incorporation of French Gothic architectural themes. By 1320, the three choirs of this cathedral were ready for use, and between 1385 and 1415 the main entrance to the West was completed. Most of edifice was finished around the year 1520, and this was also the opening year for the cathedral. It's amazing to be able to sit in this historical cathedral and imagine how the worship service was like with its great choir and organ vibrating through this massive structure. That's one of the reasons I like to visit these cathedrals.
