Regensburg lies at the river estuary of the Naab and Regen on the Danube. A city break to Regensburg takes you to the centre of the Upper Palatinate in Bavaria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Regensburg is one of the oldest cities in Germany and the old town and Stadtamhof have been UNESCO World Heritage Sites since 2006. The city has Roman origins and the medieval town is almost completely preserved. This makes a city trip to Regensburg very attractive for many visitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
