Day 8: Regensburg Germany

Regensburg is a Bavarian city known for its high Gothic cathedral, and as the home of Oskar Schindler and Pope Benedict XVI.  In this case the ship docked right outside the old city walls, which we walked along to find our entrance to the city.

 Note the real chain on the two-dimensional bear below. 

Roman ruins.

 Remnants of one of the Roman gates to the city. 

 Our walk took us through a courtyard where we found this delightful statue. 

 This is high Gothic! 

 

We walked through a courtyard to see how residents of the day lived, in apartments over their shops and warehouses. 

 At the end of our tour we enjoyed sausages for lunch.
