Memmingen is a small Bavarian city that often serves as a gateway for travelers headed to the Bavarian Alps or Lake Constance. The city's founding dates back to the days of the Roman Empire, and many ruins of ancient structures are scattered throughout the city. The old town quarter is among the most popular attractions in Memmingen. It features many Baroque houses festooned with spiral details, unique rooflines, and other playful architectural elements. The local Renaissance market, located next to the town hall, is also extremely picturesque.
Don't miss the chance to walk along the path of the old town's medieval walls. Portions of the walls and five towers still stand and show what the town used to look like. Where moats used to surround the town walls in the Middle Ages, now several public parks offer recreation and spots for scenic strolls.
Since Memmingen is so small, it is easy to get around the town center on foot. To reach this quaint paradise, you can travel via plane, train, or bus. The Allgäu Airport Memmingen is a very basic airport that welcomes a couple of flights, but taking the train or bus offers many more travel times. Deutsche Bahn trains from cities like Ulm and Munich arrive at a railway station near the town center. Intercity buses connect Memmingen to other cities, including Karlsruhe, Heidelberg, and Berlin.

Positioned near the Dutch and Belgian borders in the west of Germany, Aachen is a true hidden gem. Once a Roman spa town, this historic city dates back to the 1st-century and later became a favorite residence of the Frankish king, Charlemagne. A royal experience surely awaits you as well on your visit to Aachen.
The most striking building in this city is undoubtedly Aachen Cathedral. This cathedral is the first place in Europe to receive the prestigious status of a UNESCO World Heritage Site, in part because it is one of the oldest cathedrals in Europe. The cathedral is also the final resting place of Charlemange, though the exact whereabouts of his remains are unknown.
After a day spent walking around the city, visit the Carolus Thermen, or thermal baths, to soak in the hot mineral spring waters once loved by the Romans. Choose between a range of indoor or outdoor pools, saunas, and spa treatments to enjoy what the Romans called "salus per aquam," or "health by water."
Because of its border location, Aachen is easy to reach from Germany, the Netherlands, and Belgium. Frequent international and national trains run through the train stations, while the international airport is served by many major airlines. Bus lines including FlixBus and Sindbad provide affordable ground travel from many destinations. Some of the more popular routes to Aachen depart from Berlin, Amsterdam, and Brussels.
