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 Minster is a Lutheran church located in Ulm, Germany.
Until the completion of Sagrada Familia in Barcelona, Spain, it is the tallest church in the world, and the 5th tallest structure built before the 20th century, with a steeple measuring 161.5 metres.
The church has a length of 123.56 metres and a width of 48.8 metres.
The building area is approximately 8,260 square metres.
The height of the central nave is 41.6 metres, whilst the lateral naves are 20.55 metres high.
The volume of the edifice is some 190,000 cubic metres.
The weight of the main steeple is estimated at 51,500 tonnes (50,700 long tons; 56,800 short tons).
The church seats a congregation of 2,000.
In the Middle Ages, before pews were introduced, it could accommodate 20,000 people, when the population of the town was about 5,000.
Although sometimes referred to as Ulm Cathedral because of its great size, the church is not a cathedral as it has never been the seat of a bishop.
The upper levels of the nave are built of ashlar, which would have been sandstone from Isny im Allgäu.
Limestone from the nearby Swabian Jura was used in small quantities.
Though the towers and all decorative elements are of stone masonry, attracting the attention of visitors, most of the walls, including the façades of the nave and choir, actually consist of visible brick.
Therefore, the building is sometimes referred to as a brick church.
As such, it lays claim to the rank of second- to fourth-largest, after San Petronio Basilica in Bologna and together with Frauenkirche in Munich and St. Mary's Church in Gdańsk.
Ulm Minster was begun in the Gothic era but not completed until the late 19th century.
Nevertheless, all of the church except the towers and some outer decorations was complete, unlike Cologne Cathedral, where less than half of the work had been done, when it ceased.
768 steps lead to the top of the minster's spire.
At 143 metres there is a panoramic view of Ulm in Baden-Württemberg and Neu-Ulm in Bavaria and, in clear weather, a vista of the Alps from Säntis to the Zugspitze.
The final stairwell to the top (known as the third Gallery) is a tall, spiraling staircase that has barely enough room for one person.

Legoland Deutschland was opened on May 17, 2002 in Günzburg, Germany. The park opened nine months earlier than planned by Merlin Entertainments Group. On opening year, the park welcomed 1.35 Million visitors. All of the lighting for the park was done by Gallegos Lighting Design which had done the lighting for Legoland California Resort and the sound and video production for the park was done by Edward Technologies Inc. The park features Lego explore centers, roller coasters, water attractions and shows. When it opened in 2002, it contained 40 attractions, 7 themed lands and was made out of 50 million Lego bricks. 10 years later, the park expanded to eight “adventure worlds” with 50 attractions and 55 million Lego bricks. Legoland Deutschland is home to the world's largest Lego building, representing Munich's Allianz Arena and weighing 1.5 tons with dimensions of 5 meters in width and 1 meter in height. Legoland Deutschland also contains many other world records such as the largest Lego flower bed (2007), largest amount of energy generated through cycling underwater (2010), highest Lego tower (2010), largest Lego mosaic (2011), longest Lego millipede (2002), and the largest Lego brick (2005).
