  2. A dazzling white baroque church rising from an elegant square, widely regarded as the crowning masterpiece of court architect Friedrich Joachim Stengel. It is the proud symbol of Saarbrücken.

    10 min

  3. A baroque palace with a startling glass-and-steel heart, presiding over a broad square built above centuries of hidden cellars, casemates, and grim wartime secrets.

    10 min

  4. The oldest surviving bridge in the Saarland, this venerable stone crossing has linked the two halves of Saarbrücken across the river Saar since 1546. Its warm sandstone arches once carried emperors and armies, and today they belong to strollers and cyclists watching the water slide quietly by.

    10 min

  5. A colossal neoclassical theatre looming over the Saar, built by the Nazi regime as a cultural fortress on the French border and reborn after the war as Saarland's grandest stage.

    10 min

  6. The lively heart of Saarbrücken's old town, a long baroque square where an elegant Stengel-era fountain still splashes among cafes, bistros and pastel townhouses.

    10 min

  7. Stengel's warm baroque parish church rises just north of the market square, an intimate counterpoint to the grand Ludwigskirche across the river. Behind its calm sandstone facade lies a richly restored interior and a celebrated organ of over four thousand pipes.

    10 min

  8. Rising at the north end of the old town, this soaring neo-Gothic town hall breaks dramatically from Saarbrücken's baroque skyline. Its 54-meter clock tower, its facade of carved tradesmen, and its daily carillon make it the proud civic heart of the city.
