Haidplatz Regensburg

Highlight • Historical Site

Haidplatz
Haidplatz is one of the oldest and most beautiful squares in Regensburg. It originated from a long, triangular meadow ("Heide") west of the former Roman fort. Over the centuries, magnificent buildings were erected here. Large knight tournaments with up to 300 participants took place on this square, and spectators, jugglers, and merchants came from all over.

Untere Bachgasse

Highlight • Settlement

two medieval streets typical of Regensburg: Wahlenstraße and Bachgasse.

Untere Bachgasse runs parallel to Wahlenstraße and flows into the medieval Gesandtenstraße. The name "Untere Bachgasse" is derived from the Vitusbach, which in the Middle Ages ran through the "Obere and Untere Bachgasse" and through the city moat and was important for the water supply of the old town. Today the stream runs underground. The Vitusbach not only influenced the spatial structure of the old town and the course of streets, but was also important for the easy cleaning of the streets and for city hygiene. In the Middle Ages, people threw garbage into the stream. Street ponds were created, which served as watering holes for livestock, cattle washes and to supply home gardens. The city farmers who grew vegetables in the east of the old town were also able to be supplied with water after the city moat was built.

Neupfarr Church, Regensburg

Highlight • Religious Site

Neupfarrplatz was built at the beginning of the 16th century on the area of ​​the former Jewish quarter. In 1519, the Jews were exterminated and the synagogue was demolished. In the 1990s, remains of their foundations were found during construction. The Israeli artist Dani Karavan created the current memorial site, which sketches the ground plan of the former synagogue in a sculptural manner.

Gesandtenfriedhof

Highlight • Historical Site

The Ambassadors' Cemetery is located around the Holy Trinity Church on its east and south sides. It is the only cemetery still preserved on imperial city land.
Today, in the completely renovated Ambassadors' Cemetery, we find simple gravestones and also pompous grave monuments and mostly simple gravestones in the paved floor of the churchyard marking the burial sites and burial chambers. The monuments (epitaphs) mounted upright on the walls serve to honor and remember the deceased.
It is also recommended to climb the tower of the church, which offers a fantastic view of Regensburg.

The City Theater was first built 200 years ago.

It has been renovated, refurbished, and modernized many times since then.

The Regensburg Theater primarily performs operas, operettas, musicals,
as well as ballet and plays.


The wonderful three-tiered theater seats 519 people.

The theater offers performances almost every evening.

The program is very varied, so every theater lover should be able to find the right piece.

Arnulf's Square

Highlight • Historical Site

The Arnulfsplatz is located in the west of Regensburg's old town north of the Theater Regensburg. The square was first built in 1803 from a large previous square, after the architect Emanuel Herigoyen had completed the construction of a theater and society house on behalf of Prince-Primate Dalberg. Through the theater building, called the "New House", the previously existing, together with today's Bismarckplatz formed large total space was divided, and it created two seats. Today, six traffic routes open into Arnulfsplatz, to the north of the theater, along with a pedestrian passage to the theater venue Velodrom and the driveway to an underground car park. Despite the cramped road conditions, the Arnulfsplatz developed into a meeting place for several lines of bus transport, must also handle through traffic and therefore has despite the impressive peripheral buildings with town houses of the 17th to 19th centuries for pedestrians only a low quality of stay.
