How wonderful to see my beautiful Nördlingen. A little bit of history for your interest..... I am Australian, and was born and raised in Wagga Wagga. Nördlingen was established as a "sister city" to Wagga Wagga in the early 1970s, just as I graduated from Sydney University as an Architect. I was honoured to spend a year in Nördlingen in 1974 working with the local Council (Stadtbauamt) on the restoration and renovation of medieval buildings, and one of my projects was to design replacements for the old wooden steps in the Daniel. My memory of the first ascent was terrifying; most of the stairs were either rotten or missing., and when I finally reached the top, was given several glasses of Schnapps by the then resident, and old man with a hook for a hand!. I still cannot remember how I managed to descend. I had never been back to Nördlingen since then, but finally returned in August 2023. Most of the people I worked with had passed on, but I had dinner with a 55 year old lady, who was just 5 years old when I last saw her..... she remembered me! Her mother was a sprightly 35 year old, who also came to dinner; she is now 85 years old! It brought back so many wonderful memories. Nördlingen has replaced and renovated many of the buildings within the Stadtmauer; so many buildings had been destroyed by fire over the centuries, and I also worked on designing the "Feuerwehrhaus', which was designed to blend in with the medieval character of Nördlingen.

Thank you for staying with us! We loved getting to know you both. We couldn’t agree more that Nördlingen is a true gem on the Romantic Road and hope your video encourages more people to come explore all it has to offer! Hope to see you again soon! Kendyl & Andreas

I just found your channel a few days ago and I absolutely love it. You both travel the way I enjoy. Off the beaten path and outside. It makes me miss Germany in a great way.

Thank You for reminding me how wonderful Nördlingen is! I went here with my mom on my first visit to Germany in 1994 and we absolutely loved it! But that was before GPS and smart phones so when we went out in the evening for dinner and a stroll we got lost and every street looks identical to the next so it took us 2 hours of wandering in the middle of the night to find our hotel. I live in Germany now since 2006 and really should go back and visit!

There's a very remarkable thing in Nördlingen which you've left out. Nördlingen is home to the Bavarian Railway Museum which is presenting quite a number of interesting locomotives. Among them is the legendary KBayStsB S3/6, an express steam locomotive deemed to be one of the most beautiful Pacific type steam locomotives of Germany. The location of the museum is already worth visiting since it's a real railway depot with a turntable used by the locomotives to reach their place in the shed. Several of the engines are ready to work still, including the S3/6. (K.Bay.Sts.B. = Königlich Bayrische Staatseisenbahn; engl. Royal Bavarian State Railway; 1844 - 1920)

Wonderful video, wonderful town! As an astronomer (who met one of the Apollo 16 astronauts when I was a kid) I especially liked the meteor museum! Yet another must-see next time we're in Bayern!

I visited last year! Another cool thing about the town’s walls is that they inspired the anime “Attack on Titan” If you saw any drawings along the wall it is most likely characters from the popular show! There is also a statue of the German football player Gerd Müller as he was born in that town.

I‘m from Nördlingen so I really like that you covered our town and you stayed 50 meters away from my home 😊😊

Been watching your channel for quite some time and want to say this is an example of what yall do best. A small town “near from home” that is so worth visiting. Being from the States, I gotta admit I’ve never heard of this town. Now, thanks to you both, I’ve absolutely added Nördlingen to my list of places to visit when I go to Munich. And you’re such a tease! Can’t wait for the next videos showing the amazing food, beers, and that fantastisch apartment! Safe travels on your next journey and we’ll see you next week!! Rob

Now you've done a vid on Rothenburg and on Nördlingen, so you only got Dinkelsbühl left and you've done the three Medieval jewels of the Romantic Road. Dinkelsbühl with its museum on optical illusion, its town wall, timbered houses and a grand church, not to forget its cute Chistmas market, most probably is my favourite of the three . But I might be bias, as it is the second weekend trip I did with my wife when we just had gotten together all those years ago.

I"ve been watching you videos for short time and recently subscribed to your channel. Great to see so many places off the beaten track described with such enthusiasm. I'll be in Munich early June and will make a point of visiting this little gem. Keep up your amazing work.

You guys literally opened this city for me and added it to my list. Thanks for that! Great video, as always. Looking forward for the next one!

Wow!! Really well done video!! We are putting Nördlingen on our Germany travel list! We just subscribed! Thank you!! 🇩🇪 ❤👍🏼

I stopped into Nördlingen in August last year and have to agree! It's a great spot to check out for sure! I started walking around the city wall without realizing just HOW in tact it still was and how LONG it would be 😅This was a very well done guide to the city, you guys 😊

Thanks so much. In the past I've dodged Nördlingen for exactly the same "Google Maps" reason as you. I fly into Munich on Thursday 10 April so guess where I'm heading on the Friday? Hopefully I can see your next video before I leave Australia. Great job, you two.

Wie immer ein fantastisches Video! Eine wunderschöne Stadtführung mit den besten Tour-Guides, die es gibt! Ich freue mich auf viele weitere Videos von euch!

Another place added to the list☺️ Thank You for an Awesome Vid! ❤️✨✨✨

Fantastic! I'm heading there in Sept, for the beautiful town, and the geology :)

Great video, I love your positive attitude soo much

I enjoyed visiting that lovely town last August. Had a great lunch there, also had a Lauterbacher Brotzit bier. I did not know the geology of the area, how interesting. Very much looking forward to your food video.

Привет 🧇 ☕️ 🙋🏼‍♂️ Замечательная прогулка по городу 🚶🏼📹🔝 ✅️ 🫠

Wow, very astonishing city.... Having been to Ulm, Heidenheim, and Aalen multiple times before - all of wihich being more or less adjacent to Nördlingen, but actually I've never heard of Nördlingen before until your video. This definitely is a gem that needs to be discovered and explored - thanks to the "Learning Channel"! 😍

Thank your for the great videos. We can’t wait to watch next week. Do you ever go to Augsburg?

Servusla, your video was fun. I should go to Nördlingen again! - I come from Nuremberg, it's not that far away. I usually only got as far as the Franconian Lake District, but maybe I'll just incorporate it into a short bike trip. Gruss Stephan

Who knew there were so many gorgeous medieval cities in Germany?? We have travelled to Germany twice in the past two years and it looks like we need to go back!

This makes me really homesick.

When I had been on the Daniel a few years ago on a Saturday at 16 o'clock I hadn't been at the top, but I choose to wait right above the bells. What an amazing feeling to feels those mighty bells swinging right below you 😍 Did you know that Nördlingen still has a bell foundry? Aside from the Eisenbahnmuseum that you already replied to in other comments (did you know that the steam trains in Munich at Pfingsten or Christmas are operated by them? Or that they still do scheduled cargo trains using steam?) I'd suggest you to visit again at the Stadtmauerfest that happens every three years. The whole old town will essentially be a medieval market then 🥰 And you should also use the chance to visit castle Harburg which I'm sure you saw on your way from/to Nördlingen by train. 😍 Speaking of things to visit from Munich... have you by chance visited Raisting at the Ammersee? It's the location of the oldest satellite communication dish in Germany, put into operation in 1964 and being housed inside a cupola that's kept up by air pressure. The tourist season will start in May, so you might want to take the chance for a guided tour 😊(you can get there by train either via Geltendorf, travelling along the lovely Ammerseebahn, or via Weilheim)

Thanks for giving me a new destination to visit this coming August! Noerdlingen has been on my "bucket list" for years. I was considering it as a commutable town this past year when my daughter and I finally were able to get to Oktoberfest. The travel by train to Munich seemed to be more difficult than we wanted, so me stayed in Doenauworth for economical accommodations for 3 nights. You guys should really visit Weikersheim and Creglingen on a weekend excursion. The palace in Weikersheim is wonderful and the village is very nice. I visited there in 2014, and plan to return again!

my mom grew up in a village near by. Ostheim

My Dad loved geology, so I went to Nördlingen last year, wnd really liked it, too..When you go back, be sure not to miss the Kneipp-Anlage, a place where you wade in cold water, it's good for your blood circulation. And in Nördlingen its not a basin, it's right in the river, not far from the Krater -Museum. On the way to Nördlingen you can stop in Harburg, the place has a great castle, it might even be on the crater rim.. The sirens... They are tested once a month, I think it is on the first Saturday of the month, at 12:30. You will here it everywhere, not just in Nördlingen.

"Würst im Semmel haben" 😁 Using your Bavarien dialect with Semmel. Spaß beiseite. I have visited Nördlingen several times and it was worth it every time.

Love your channel and all your videos. Any chance you’ll do another live stream?

Ich musse Nördlingen besuchen!

Here are two very good documentaries about the formation of the Nördlinger Ries crater. You also learn about the history of Nördlingen from the Celts, Romans, Middle Ages and the visit of NASA. The audio tracks are in German, but you can activate English subtitles. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jLmCdKapx9rHlqs.html kzfaq.info/get/bejne/j9KlnK2nqbPZlKs.html
