Hotels in Ulm
Discover Ulm through the contrast between monumental church architecture and small waterways. A walk from the Minster to the Fishermen's Quarter and on to the Danube makes a first city day with three different scales. Check current Minster access beforehand; even without climbing the tower, the route offers plenty to see.

What brings you here?
Plan a first day in Ulm
The Minster, Fishermen's Quarter and Danube give your visit a clear focus. Choose these three areas first, leaving extra excursions open until you find your own pace in the city.
Combine architecture and water
At the Minster, look at scale and detail; in the Fishermen's Quarter, timber framing and small bridges. The Danube opens the view, with photo pauses that keep narrow routes clear.
Keep sightseeing flexible
An exterior walk can fit an available time window. You can add a church visit or tower climb depending on access, fitness and the weather.

Ulm Minster
The Minster is a defining landmark in Ulm. Begin by viewing it from Münsterplatz, then decide about an interior visit. As restrictions can apply, check the current visitor information, especially if you plan to climb the tower.
02 / Ulm
Fishermen's Quarter
Timber-framed houses, small bridges and narrow lanes meet along the Blau. Look beyond the famous Crooked House to the relationship between buildings and water. We suggest a slow walk with a few photography stops, leaving narrow passages clear for other visitors and everyday life in the neighbourhood.

Danube city wall
The historic city wall accompanies views of the Danube and adds a more open setting after the Fishermen's Quarter. Choose a suitable riverside stretch to finish your walk. If you like, you can extend your walk across the Danube to Neu-Ulm.
