About location

Built around a grass airfield, Rothenburg Airport developed into a local facility for general aviation. It lies amid the rolling farmland of Middle Franconia, on uplands above the Tauber valley. The airport is associated with Rothenburg ob der Tauber, whose compact historic centre retains an almost complete circuit of medieval town walls. The town stands on Germany’s Romantic Road, the long-established touring route between Würzburg and Füssen. Hangars, service buildings and the runway give the site a practical role within the region’s rural settlement pattern.

City Rothenburg ob der Tauber

Rothenburg ob der Tauber occupies a ridge above the Tauber valley in Bavaria’s Franconian region. Its remarkably intact walled old town preserves the form of a former Free Imperial City, a status Rothenburg held from 1274 until 1803. Timber-framed houses, gate towers and the Gothic Town Hall line streets enclosed by walkable defensive walls. The Plönlein, where a narrow lane meets two towers, is among the town’s best-known historic corners. Continue with other webcams from Bavaria to see how this part of Franconia connects regionally.

Bavaria
Region Bavaria

Built around the early medieval Duchy of Bavaria, Bavaria grew into Germany’s largest federal state. The Danube crosses its broad centre, while the Bavarian Alps form its southern edge and include the Zugspitze, Germany’s highest mountain. Munich is the state capital and the home of Oktoberfest, a festival rooted in an 1810 royal wedding. Beyond the metropolis, Franconia’s vineyards, Swabian towns and Alpine resorts reveal how varied this part of Germany can be.

Country Germany

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.
