“In addition to both branches of the Regnitz, a third stream flows through Bamberg, more powerful than the other two, the beer!” The culinary walk deals with the almost 1,000-year-old tradition of brewing in Bamberg and offers a variety of insights into the city's cooking pots. In addition to two types of “Hörnla”, Bamberg also has many culinary highlights to offer. Several “experimenters” make the tour a taste experience. This tour is a German-speaking tour.

Itinerary
Our tour guide welcomes you and introduces you to the eating habits of the Middle Ages. The first taste shows you that meat consumption played a major role.
Guessing games and scent samples let you immerse yourself in the history of Bamberg's weekly market. Its long history and diversity still inspire visitors from near and far today.
Bamberg is known far beyond the city limits for its art of brewing beer. In the Middle Ages, however, Bamberg was a wine town, which you can test yourself with a view of the monastery on Michelsberg.
The romantic designation of Bamberg as "Little Venice" can best be traced at the lower bridge. In front of the backdrop of the former fishermen's houses from the 17th century, stories about the lifeline Regnitz are told.
With a view of the historic "Schlenkerla" smoked beer brewery, you will delve deep into the history of Bamberg's art of beer brewing.
Strengthened by another delicious taste, you will follow the saying "go to the cellar".
The tour concludes with a visit to a classic Bamberg inn. There everyone can choose a beer of their choice and convince themselves of the beer brewing art of the Bamberg people.

About Bamberg
Bamberg is an old town in northern Bavaria spread over seven hills and a river, with an imperial cathedral, a fishermen's quarter and smoked beer.
Bamberg lies in Upper Franconia on the Regnitz river, and its medieval and baroque old town, spread over seven hills, has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1993. The four-towered cathedral holds the tomb of Emperor Henry II and the Bamberg Horseman, a mysterious knight carved in stone in the thirteenth century. The Old Town Hall stands on an artificial island in the river, linked by two bridges, with painted frescoes on its facade.
