Bamberg Hotels

Today, a host of extraordinary landmarks, monuments and museums lures people from every corner of the globe to Bamberg. The city offers all the quintessential Bavaria staples in one exquisite, tidy package: phenomenal brewery tours, a supremely elegant medieval townscape, hearty Franconian hospitality and a gorgeous backdrop in the Steigerwald foothills. Absolute must-see points of interest include the Alte Hofhaltung (Old Palace), Romanesque Jakobskirche (Church of Saint Jacob), Michelsburg Abbey, Neue Residenz (New Palace) and the dramatic Bamberger Dom cathedral. Bamberg brews some of the most famous suds in the world, especially the indomitable and smoky Rauchbier. Innumerable events throughout the year give visitors and residents alike ample reason to celebrate with a stein in hand, from the Calderon Festival to the ever-popular Sandkerwa. Outside of the summer high season however, Bamberg is relatively quiet and as a result, can provide a marvelous sanctuary for carefree, contemplative tourism.
