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 massive church of St. George was built like a cathedral for the old city republic of Nördlingen in just under 80 years - extremely impressive! It is the largest building in the world made of suevite. The furnishings with altars and works of art are also very worth seeing.

The view over Nördlingen and the Ries is overwhelmingly beautiful! If you dare, you should tackle the 350 steps.

Donauwörth is a very beautiful city with many sights. https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donauw%C3%B6rth

Even today, every half hour from 10:00 p.m. to midnight, the watchman on duty calls out the former watchman call from the tower room, "So Gsell so!" (The story of the Nördlinger Sau). The "Daniel" counts more than 50,000 visitors year after year and is a "must" for every visitor, great view over Nördlingen and the Ries. Construction of the approximately 90 meter high tower began in 1454, and admission for a visit is to be paid in the tower keeper's cottage.

If you approach the Rieder Tor from the old town, you have a very nice view of it with the branch of the Danube. The environment is very attractively designed, so that the detour is worthwhile.

Beautiful town with a beautiful shopping street, cafes and restaurants. Good place for a stopover.
