Ulm is a city in the south German state of Baden-Württemberg, founded in medieval times. In the center is the huge Gothic Ulm Minster, a centuries-old church. Its steeple has views of the city and, in clear weather, the Alps. The Town Hall has an early-Renaissance facade, murals and a 16th-century astronomical clock. Half-timbered houses line the narrow alleys of the Fischerviertel, an area close to the River Danube.
On the Danube in Baden-Württemberg, Ulm will forever be synonymous with its epic minster. The city, also the birthplace of Albert Einstein, is a heady juxtaposition of Medieval and modern: Dating back hundreds of years are the city’s walls by the Danube and the quarter where fishermen and tanners used to live.
The half-timbered houses and traditional German restaurants on these streets clash with avant-garde new monuments to replace architecture lost in the war. And back to that minster, which soars over everything else in the city. Until the 1900s this church was in the top five tallest buildings in the world and has enough room for 20,000 worshippers.
To set the scene, Ulm Minster has the highest steeple in the world, is officially the tallest complete church in the world and coming into the 20th century it was the 5th tallest man-made structure. From the tower, 768 steps and 143 metres up, there’s a panorama of the Alps far in the distance to the south. Ulm Minster was started in 1377, but partly because of its extreme dimensions was only officially completed in 1890. In the western portal take a moment to study the tympanum, filled with 14th-century carvings of scenes from the book of Genesis.
Where the channels of the Blau Stream enter the Danube is the Medieval waterside quarter for Ulm’s tanners, fishermen and shipbuilders. The neighbourhood reached its zenith in the 1500s when trade on the Danube was roaring. As a testament to this high demand, the streets are tightly packed with cantilevered timber-framed houses, some so close to each other that they sometimes touch in front, like on the appropriately named Kussgasse (Kiss Alley).
What could be the cutest building in Ulm is the Schiefes Haus, a rickety inn from the start of the 15th century. The museum for bread culture has an apt home in a Renaissance granary that was built in 1592 and was in use until the start of the 19th century.
Some way south of Ulm, near the confluence of the Iller and Danube Rivers, is a former Benedictine Abbey of Wiblingen Abbey, now a department of the University of Ulm. Coated with trompe-l’œil frescoes, Ulm’s majestic old town hall has an Early Renaissance design and is composed of three buildings, the oldest of which dates back to the 1370. The oldest architecture is on the southeast side of the complex, while the gables and daintily ornamented windows are from the 15th century.
If you’re up for a restorative stroll you could make for the Danube bordered by a long remnant of Ulm’s defensive walls. One unforgettable element in the defensive system by the Danube is the Metzgerturm (Butchers’ Tower), a gate predating the current line, going back to 1340. The tower got its name as an opening had to be made in the wall to make it easier to reach the city’s slaughterhouse, which was built outside the walls.
In four adjacent houses on Ulm’s Marktplatz, the municipal museum is unmissable for its Gothic and Renaissance sculpture, but also a prehistoric statue that has no equivalent in the world. Take the Central Library, opposite the Old Town Hall and Minster, designed by Gottfried Böhm and in the shape of a glass pyramid.
That wave of architecture has given Ulm a private contemporary art museum. The Kunsthalle Weishaupt opened in 2007 in a cube-shaped building designed by Wolfram Wöhr. Under the Minster’s sky-scraping spire is another modern addition to Ulm’s cityscape.
The gleaming white Stadthaus by New York architect Richard Meier is an attention-grabbing landmark that opened in 1993.
Ulm’s zoo might be on the small side, but has a variety of regional and exotic animals for kids to get close to. At a spacious 28 hectares, Ulm University’s botanical garden is one of the largest in the country. Ulm’s annual city holiday falls on the penultimate Monday of July.

Ulm Fishermen's Jousting Tournament
The first records of the Ulm Fishermen's Jousting Tournament originate from the 16th century: On February 20, 1545 the council refused permission to hold a Fishermen's Jousting Tournament. The corresponding entry in the council records is the oldest indication of the practice of this custom in Ulm.
Since 1950, Ulm's Fishermen's Jousting Tournament has been held every 4 years, if no important events or jubilees occur to upset the rhythm. The two Sundays before Oath Monday have become the traditional dates for the tournament, Oath Monday being the penultimate Monday in July.
The drummers in their red jackets beat a tattoo. The jousting boats push off in a set of three from each bank of the Danube. The helmsmen steer the boats towards each other. The jousters stand on the stern, leaning on their 2.80-meter-long lances, called spears. When the boats meet, the combatants raise their spears, press the crossbar against their shoulder, and aim the leather-cushioned tip at the breast of their opponent.
Spears crash into ribs. Whoever falls into the water has lost. Whoever steps into the boat is also deemed to be wet. The jouster remaining standing on the stern is regarded as dry and progresses to the next round. If both remain dry, the contest is a draw. It is repeated until there is a winner.
No Ulm Fishermen's Jousting Tournament would be complete without the procession held prior to it in the morning.
Around 10 O'clock in the morning some 300 participants gather in their colourful costumes at the Saumarkt in the Fishermen's Quarter. Here the pair of jesters and the Farmer and his Wife (the lady is played by a man) perform their dance, which probably originates from early modern carnival customs, for the first time.

Walking Around. Ulm. Germany. 2015-09-26
Spaziergang durchs Fischerviertel
Auch wenn das alte, mittelalterliche Ulm am 17. 12. 1944 untergegangen ist, einige wenige Stadtteile haben das Bombardement fast unbeschadet überstanden. Das Quartier „Auf dem Kreuz, die Gassen um das nördliche Münster und das „Fischerviertel. Nach der aufwändigen Sanierung vieler, zumeist im Fachwerkstil erbauter Häuser, präsentiert sich die alte Heimat der Fischer und der Donauschiffer den Gästen der Stadt als wahres Kleinod. Wir begleiten ein junges Pärchen durch die alten Gassen an die Ufer des Flüsschens Blau, vorbei an Klein-Venedig und dem Schiefen Haus bis zum Fischerplätzle an der Stadtmauer. Neben dem Münster, schlägt hier das touristische und besonders das gastronomische Herz der Stadt.
A stroll through the Fishermen's Quarter
Even though the old, medieval Ulm was destroyed on December 17, 1944, a few parts of the city survived the bombardment almost unscathed. They include the area known as „Auf dem Kreuz, the narrow streets to the north of the Minster, and the „Fishermen's Quarter. Following the elaborate restoration of numerous houses, many of them
half-timbered, the former home of the city's fishermen and Danube sailors has turned out to be a true gem. We accompany a young couple through the old streets beside the Danube, past Little Venice and the Crooked House as far as the Fishermen's Square beside the city wall.
Minster apart, this is where you can find the best tourist as well as gastronomic highlights the city has to offer.
Bye America, Hallo Ulm!
