The 12th-century Stone Bridge, a 310m-long icon with 16 arches, crosses the river to the old town. Afterwards we will have a delicious traditional Lunch.

Strengthened and still in a good mood, we continue our walk through the old part of Regensburg. We'll have plenty of great photo opportunities, be it the Basilika St. Emmeram, the Basilica of the Nativity of Our Lady, the famous Town Hall, the Goliath House, the Neupfarrplatz, the Porta Praetoria or many other amazing sights.

Together we'll journey through the history, style, and craftsmanship of structures throughout the old city while pausing to take high resolution portraits of you and your party. Beginning at the eastern city gate we’ll travel from remnants of the city walls to Roman ruins to Gothic grotesques to Neoclassical facades as your guide paints the progression of Regensburg through the centuries with historical narratives, archaic maps, and historiography.

Along the way you’ll get familiar with your fellow guests and we might bump into some local friends. You’ll walk away with knowledge on the construction, design, and purpose of Altstadt architecture throughout the ages. By the end of your tour you’ll never look at architecture the same way anywhere in the world for the rest of your life!
