During your visit to Bamberg, wander through the UNESCO-listed Old Town with its stunning medieval and Baroque architecture, including the impressive 13th-century cathedral housing the tomb of Emperor Henry II. Don't miss the Old Town Hall built on an artificial island in the middle of the Regnitz River, a strange sight indeed! Then, make your way to Amberg, with its charming medieval city walls, four distinctive gates, and Market Square lined with beautiful patrician houses and the unique "wedding house." Both Franconian towns boast excellent local breweries where you can sample distinctive regional beers, including Bamberg's famous smoked beer (Rauchbier) and Amberg's traditional wheat beers.
