A beautiful kettle that reflects the brewing history of Oettingen.

A very beautiful and well-preserved gate. A very nice entrance to the old town.

Here you will find the Wörnitz River Pool (admission is charged in summer).

I can highly recommend Oettinger Naturtrübes Hefeweizen

The "Daniel" church tower of St. George's Church in Nördlingen is the town's most visible landmark and a masterpiece of late Gothic architecture. At 90 meters high, the tower rises above the town's rooftops and offers a spectacular panoramic view of the Nördlinger Ries region – on a clear day, up to 99 church towers can be seen. Construction began in 1454 and was completed in 1490 with a temporary roof. After a lightning strike in 1537, the tower received its characteristic Italian dome. Originally known as the "Wendelstein," it was renamed "Daniel" in the 19th century – an allusion to the biblical figure Daniel, who was elevated to the rank of prince. The Daniel tower is particularly vividly brought to life by a centuries-old tradition: Every evening between 10 p.m. and midnight, the watchman calls out "So G'sell, so!" from the tower room. – a greeting that dates back to a legend from 1440 in which a runaway sow helped uncover a treason and save the city from an attack. Those who climb the more than 350 steps to the viewing platform will be rewarded not only with an impressive panorama but also with a sense of the history and soul of this unique city.

The Löpsinger Gate was completed in 1379 and originally served as a defensive structure in the north of the city. Today, the gate tower houses the City Wall Museum, which opened in 1987 and documents the history of Nördlingen's city fortifications on six floors.

Built in the 13th century, originally used as a trade fair hall. The city administration has been continuously housed here since 1382. The striking feature is the open staircase made of suevite ashlar, built in 1618 – an art historical highlight. Beneath the staircase is the "Fool's House," a former prison cell also connected to the witch hunts. The building is centrally located on the market square and is a popular starting point for city tours.

Very beautiful old town
