Romantic Road

Picture
After World War II, Germany developed its tourism industry by creating an official tourist route that would carry visitors through many quintessential German attractions, giving guests a well rounded idea of German life and culture. Building upon the old Roman road between Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg, the route was embellished to include medieval towns and stunning castles. Romantic Road served to help the world leave the ravages of Hitler’s regime in the past and enjoy Germany for its positive contributions to humanity. Some of the first guests invited along the route were the family and friends of American soldiers stationed in the area.

One of the most famous sights along the path is Neuschwanstein Castle, which receives more than one million visitors each year due to its fairytale elements. The walled medieval towns of Rothenburg ob der Tauber and Dinkelsbühl surprise visitors with well-preserved timber houses that seem to capture the Middle Ages. The city of Augsburg joins the ranks of places that have been popular since before Roman rule. Ancient churches and sprawling vineyards offer memorable stops and scenic sights.

Romantic Road continues to draw in crowds of enthusiasts for German architecture, food, and culture that come together in the perfect blend of travel and leisure.
