Guided Story
Can you feel the cool breeze coming from inside? These walls have stood for centuries. Look up at the intricate facade. Zimmermann didn't just build; he carved stories into stone. To your left, in the Lusamgärtchen, is the grave of the famous minstrel Walther von der Vogelweide. Imagine his songs echoing through these walls. Turn around and see the Cathedral of St. Kilian – two churches that breathe the spirituality of the city. Listen as the wind whispers through the old stones, telling you tales from when monks once lived here.
