Relax like the Romans once did in Germany's spa towns with soothing hot springs and escape the cold winter days.

Sizzle and savor with some Nuremberg Rostbratwurst! Whether on a bun, with mustard, or by themselves, they’re a flavor explosion in every bite! Next time you’re in Nuremberg, make sure to try some! Your taste buds will thank you.

Germany is known for cuckoo clocks, especially the Black Forest. In Schonach, you will find the world's largest - it is as big as a small house and every 30 minutes the cuckoo appears and calls the current hour.

It’s "snow" surprise this place is straight out of a fairytale! Neuschwanstein Castle is even more beautiful when blanketed in snow.

Head to the German town of Monschau! ❄️🏰 At this time of year, the old quarter is transformed into a wintry fairytale scene. Go for a stroll around the narrow lanes with their half-timbered buildings before stopping at a cozy coffee shop to warm up.

😲 The view of the Saarschleife is truly unforgettable. While stunning year-round, it’s especially magical in winter, when the landscape is blanketed in snow!

It is a well-known fact that Germany is famous for its sausages. From the big red in Heidelberg to the "Ahle Wurscht'' in Northern Hesse, and let’s not forget bratwurst from Bavaria (with sweet mustard). There are many ways to enjoy! Discover your favorite and dig in! 😋

A warm welcome to Grafenhausen! Classical singer Helene Siegfried built her summer residence here in 1912, and her passion for collecting turned it into a museum. 🏠 An ideal place to learn about the history and culture of the Upper Black Forest!
