The UNESCO Global Geopark Ries bears witness to a momentous event: 15 million years ago, an asteroid hit Earth here, creating a massive crater. The impressive traces of this cosmic catastrophe can be found throughout the region. On educational trails and at viewpoints, during guided tours, and at the Geopark information centers and information points, there is much to discover about the formation, geology, and history of the Ries crater. The UNESCO Global Geopark Ries has developed numerous programs specifically for schools.

Nice little town. There's a shopping center with a nice café at the edge of town, especially when everything else is closed on Mondays.

Magnificent view of the castle, whatever the season

ネルトリンゲンのバルディンガー・トーは、5つの歴史的な市門の一つで、1376年に初めて言及されました。ヴュルツブルクとフランクフルト・アム・マインの方向への道を確保し、中世の市壁の一部でした。前衛的な構造物は1406年にマイスター・ヴェンツェスラウスによって完成され、1430年には石工コンラート・ステンクリンの指揮下で再建されました。 元々、門の構造はベルガー・トーに似ていました。ほぼ正方形の前衛的な構造物を持つ、長方形の主門建築です。塔は5階建てで、砲撃用の胸壁とテント屋根を持つ円形の頂部構造を備えていました。三十年戦争中に門は損傷し、1703年には不十分な修理が原因で塔が予期せず崩壊しました。この事故で5人が死亡しました。

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 Reimlinger Gate is Nördlingen's oldest surviving city gate, dating back to the 14th century. It once secured the important trade route toward Donauwörth and Augsburg. The square tower was built around 1376 and later rebuilt several times – the current tent roof dates from 1603. Despite some alterations, the gate, with its bridgework and moat walls, has been largely preserved in its original form and is an impressive testament to the city's medieval defenses.
