Alte Bastei and Open-Air Stage (Nördlingen)

Highlight • Historical Site

As a mighty bulwark, the old bastion secured the most endangered side of the city - today it serves as a romantic open-air stage. Various types of events take place in the Ochsenzwinger cultural center.

The Baldinger Gate looks a bit crippled compared to the other gates, which is because the tower has collapsed. 🤷‍♂️

October 18, 2025,Nördlingen -Stadtmauer/Altstadt/Markt
Ending my vacation in Nördlingen. This time I walked along the city wall to the left. You can already see how long the walkway is. The city also looks completely different. I still had to collect all the stamps ☺️ and it only took 30 minutes to walk around the old town.
I also visited the weekly market with local …

Walked around the Christmas market, looked at a few nativity scenes in the shop windows and then walked around the old town on the city wall

Nördlingen is a very pretty town and you can walk all the way around the town wall except at one point where renovations are taking place

Am Sonntag ging es bei trockenem Wetter nach Nördlingen. Die Stadt gehört neben Rothenburg o.d,Tauber und Dinkelsbühl zu den 3 Städten in Deutschland, welche bis heute von einer vollständigen Ringmauer umgegeben sind. Der Wehrgang auf der Mauer ist ca. 3 km lang. An den 5 Toren führen Treppen hinauf bzw. hinunter.
The ancient city is always especially good when it has high fog all day and nothing was going on🤩😉

On the last rainy day we drove to Nördlingen - Nördlingen has a very well-preserved historic city center and a city wall that is accessible all around!
We really liked it - it wasn't as crowded and only aimed at tourists like Rothenburg o.d. Tauber - there are also many small, interesting shops - recommended!
The listening tour 'Witches in …

Very nice Christmas market absolutely worth seeing to go through, and an exhibition with cribs in the old Schrannen building. In any case, the exhibition was a highlight. And ran a lap on the city wall, almost completely around Nördlingen, only a small part is missing, which is currently being renovated 💯🤩
