Weissenburg in Bayern

Weißenburg in Bayern straddles the Swabian Rezat on the southern edge of the Franconian Jura in Bavaria, a position between upland and lowland routes that helped establish it as a regional centre. Roman Weißenburg was known as Biriciana, and the former frontier of the Roman Empire remains tangible in the nearby fort site and Roman Baths. The town’s Roman Museum holds the Weißenburg Treasure, a remarkable collection of Roman metalwork. Inside the old town, St Andrew’s Church, the Ellinger Tor and surviving sections of the walls recall its later medieval importance.
