Ulm: Blaubeurer Straße

About location

Few places in Baden-Württemberg have a history as closely tied to the Danube as Ulm. Blaubeurer Straße is a major westbound corridor in the city, carrying traffic through a built-up district of broad roads, rail infrastructure and commercial sites. The route leads toward Blaubeuren and connects with Ulm’s wider regional road network. A short distance south, the Danube has long shaped Ulm’s trade and civic identity; the river now also marks the boundary with Bavaria. Ulm Minster, begun in the 14th century, is distinguished by the world’s tallest church steeple, rising 161.53 metres. This is a practical, urban side of a city better known for its medieval centre, with the Swabian Alb lying to the northwest.

City Ulm

Developed around a crossing of the Danube, Ulm became a historic city in Baden-Württemberg. The river forms the border with Bavaria here, flowing beside the old town and linking Ulm with Neu-Ulm, a separate Bavarian city. Ulm Minster dominates the centre: its 161.53-metre spire is the tallest church steeple in the world. Construction began in the 14th century and was completed in 1890. Lanes around Münsterplatz and the Danube riverfront reflect Ulm’s position between Swabian tradition and two German states.

Baden-Württemberg
Region Baden-Württemberg

Baden-Württemberg is best known within Germany for the Black Forest, the wooded upland region that shapes much of the state’s southwest. Its terrain also reaches from the Upper Rhine plain and its wine-growing areas to the limestone ridges of the Swabian Jura, while Lake Constance marks part of the southern frontier. Stuttgart, the state capital, is closely tied to the automobile industry and hosts the Mercedes-Benz Museum and Porsche Museum. Heidelberg’s old town and castle add another important strand to the region’s identity, alongside renowned universities, spas and regional cooking.

Germany stretches from the North Sea and Baltic Sea coasts to the Alps on its southern border, encompassing northern plains, river valleys and forested uplands. The Rhine, Danube and Elbe have long connected its regions, while the Black Forest and Bavarian Alps give the south a more dramatic relief. Berlin’s Brandenburg Gate and Museum Island reflect the capital’s role in German history and culture. Cologne Cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, rises above the Rhine, and the Bauhaus movement, founded in Weimar in 1919, transformed modern design far beyond Germany. Regional cooking, Christmas markets and brewing traditions bring further character to daily life. Browse additional webcams from the surrounding area to extend your view of Germany.
