The baroque town of Eichstätt is definitely worth a tour. Above all, the cathedral and the Willibaldsburg with the Jura Museum are well worth seeing. Among other things, a famous fossil of Archeopteryx is on display at the castle.

Eichstätt's old town and the sights in Eichstätt are thoroughly influenced by the Baroque style. Only a few houses and churches, including the cathedral, were preserved when Catholic Eichstätt was captured and destroyed by the Swedish army in the Thirty Years' War. During the reconstruction, which took place during a period of economic boom, the contemporary Baroque style was generally preferred, and so the small town in the Altmühl valley with the sights in Eichstätt offers a very beautiful, uniform cityscape.

Eichstätt is a very beautiful place in the Altmühltal. Always stick to the watercourse of the Altmühl.
Don't forget to take a photo.
