Regensburg Travel Guide

Regensburg shines from May to September, with mild days for the old town and Danube riverside; autumn adds quiet colour and winter wraps the market in festivity. A compact day covers it: morning across the Stone Bridge for the salt-harbour skyline, afternoon inside St Peter's Cathedral and along the tower-house lanes hunting Roman traces, then a local beer in a historic tavern. With extra time, head north to Walhalla for riverside views. Walkable and self-contained, it's well served by the Danube rail line and cheaper than Munich. Deep history meeting a comfortable daily rhythm gives this Danube city lasting warmth and character.
