A year in Rothenburg ob der Tauber has its own rhythm that follows its historical festivals. Der Meistertrunk, set in 1631, at Pentecost, the Imperial City festivals in September, and the Advent season with the Reiterlesmarkt form the cornerstones of the year, during which everyone is out and about – whether they are from Rothenburg or visiting. There are also plenty of other events to discover – each promising culture, the opportunity for exciting encounters, celebrating, and relaxing.
