Ansbach, a picturesque town in Bavaria, Germany, has a rich history dating back to the Middle Ages. Originally founded as a Benedictine monastery in the 8th century, the town developed into an important political and cultural centre over the course of time. It was once the residence of the Margraves of Brandenburg-Ansbach and the Hohenzollern dynasty also played an important role in the town’s history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An important historical figure in Ansbach is the legendary foundling Kaspar Hauser, who lived here from 1831 to 1833, was allegedly murdered in the Hofgarten (according to others, he fatally injured himself) and is buried in Ansbach’s town cemetery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, Ansbach is known for its well-preserved old town centre with narrow streets and historic buildings. Particularly worth seeing is the beautiful Residential Palace, a magnificent example of baroque architecture that was once the seat of the margraves. The Hofgarten, an extensive park with beautifully landscaped gardens, invites you to take a stroll and relax.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

St Gumbert’s Church, an impressive 12th century church with a striking tower, is another of the town’s sights. The church is known for its ornate stained glass windows and well-preserved organ. The Margrave Crypt and Crypt of St Gumbertus are also located here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In culinary terms, the Franconian town offers a variety of restaurants and caf\u00e9s serving local specialities such as Franconian sausages and regional beers. The annual Ansbach Kerwa and Christmas market are popular festivals where visitors can enjoy traditional dishes and entertainment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
