Discover Amberg: Historical City Tour with Spine-Chilling Moments

Embark on a city tour through the Old Town of Amberg and experience almost 1000 years of local history up close. Trained guides from the Tourist Information will lead you to masterpieces of architecture and tell the stories of the people behind the facades – thorough, vivid, approachable.

Between City Wall and City Glasses: History to Touch

From the Hallplatz, the Amberg Egg opens up with narrow alleys, magnificent townhouses, and the nearly completely preserved city wall. At the iconic city glasses, architecture becomes a cultural enrichment: reflections on the Vils, sandstone, arches – a discovery experience for the eye and camera.

Churches, Squares, Enthusiasm for Life: The Heart of the City on the Vils

St. Martin rises as a late Gothic landmark over the marketplace, surrounded by historical facades and inns. Here, local history, everyday culture, and Amberg hospitality condense into a vibrant backdrop that connects city tours and enjoyment.

Insider Knowledge from the Guide

Your guide connects architectural details with major lines of regional history: trade routes, Wittelsbach, air art place – thus the Old Town becomes an open stage. Clear route guidance, a compact duration of about 90 minutes, and a conveniently reachable meeting point ensure a smooth experience.
