Rothenburg ob der Tauber Christmas Market, 2015
Rothenburg ob der Tauber is a German town in northern Bavaria.
We arrived in late November for the opening of the Rothenberg Rider’s Christmas Market, one of the oldest in Europe.
The market is named after a feared horseman believed to be from another world, who glides through the winter skies with old souls.
Rothenburg is known for its medieval architecture. Half-timbered houses line the cobblestone lanes of its old town. The city walls include many preserved gate houses and towers, plus a covered walkway on top.
Stunningly beautiful any time of year, especially covered in snow.
