There is more to Rothenburg than christmas markets. And since we stayed 2 days, we were able to visit museums and walk around town. The first museum that we toured was the old prison. We also visited the Medieval Crime and Punishment Museum, a doll museum and museum about the history of German christmas traditions. But our favorite historic part of Rothenburg was to walk along the wall of the city. We had a great time imagining what it must have been like to patrol the city. One section of the wall even had canons in place. It was better than being at Disney!
There were lots of Americans visiting Rothenburg, so most of the merchants spoke English, always a plus when you don't know German. We could have stayed here another day, but we had one more stop to make to complete our Christmas market tour.
