    Tips

    June 16, 2021

    In 2006, the listed ensemble Altstadt Regensburg with Stadtamhof was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, because it could be proven that the medieval buildings of Regensburg and the associated city architecture are still largely preserved. In the old town of Regensburg there are around 960 monuments on 1.8 km². Even today, the historic double role of a medieval trading center and an early modern meeting place for European diplomats is recognizable in the buildings, squares and alleys of the old town: the Perpetual Reichstag met here from 1663 to 1803 and decided on a European policy that influenced the entire area north of the Alps . Thus, the old town of Regensburg, together with the former Bavarian, non-city and late incorporated Catholic country town Stadtamhof, connected via the stone bridge, is an extraordinary testimony to the cultural traditions, but also to the fractures in the Holy Roman Empire. Its stages of development and sequence in the well-preserved secular and ecclesiastical buildings are recognizable in the formerly Protestant imperial city. This article is intended to describe both the development and the efforts to preserve the building stock as well as the losses in buildings.
