Two branches of the Blau (yes, the river is really called that) flow through the fishing district and then flow into the Danube. Here are beautiful old half-timbered houses from the 15th to 17th centuries. Parts of their foundation are located directly in the water. The soft subsoil caused the houses to separate over time and get in a lopsided position. So it's no wonder that you can find the Hotel “Schiefes Haus” here. The name Fischer-Viertel comes from the fishermen who settled there in the Middle Ages and took small boats to the Danube to return with fresh fish.

Located directly on the old Staufer wall and the blue, this hotel is really a "crooked house". The building, which is over 600 years old, "hangs" over the blue and its half-timbered structure impressively shows the inclination through the beams bent down towards the water. Inside, however, the floors have been leveled. The small bridge leading over the blue here opens up a view of the water-side facade with the geranium-decorated gable. In the river you can watch trout and dream a round. If you like to stay here (upper price range) you will find all relevant information on the homepage: hotelschiefeshausulm.de/preise.html

A crooked attraction in the fishing district. You have to look at it, otherwise you won't believe it. You can enjoy it from the comfort of the cafe that is right next door. The whole fishing district invites you to eat and drink in many restaurants and cafes.
