What brings you here?
Understand the World Heritage area
Begin at the visitor centre if you want more than photographs. Historical context helps you look at the bridge and Stadtamhof with fresh attention and choose your own interests.
Spend a weekend beside the Danube
The bridge connects two different townscapes in one walk. Leave time for river views and a break of your choice instead of adding distant excursions to the same day.
Extend a business visit
After an appointment, the Stone Bridge makes a clearly defined outing. Add Stadtamhof when you have longer.

01 / Regensburg
Stone Bridge
The medieval bridge crosses the Danube and is one of Regensburg's defining structures. Do more than simply walk across: compare the views from both sides. A photograph from the riverbank can round off the visit; choose the bank that best suits the next part of your route.
02 / Regensburg
Stadtamhof
Stadtamhof lies between branches of the Danube and shares World Heritage status with the old town. Give this district its own part of your walk. After crossing the bridge, allow time for its streets instead of turning straight back; a break of your choice helps mark the change of setting.
03 / Regensburg
World Heritage Visitor Centre
An exhibition in the historic Salzstadel beside the Stone Bridge explains Regensburg's development. We suggest visiting before your walk or returning afterwards for more context. Check visiting arrangements and choose themes you want to look for outside, linking the exhibition to your own exploration rather than treating them separately.
