What to do and see in Regensburg, Bavaria: The Best Museums

September 3, 2021 Elouise Mccaul

Founded by the Romans in 179 AD as Casta Regina (meaning Fortress by the River Regen), Regensburg is one of Germany's oldest towns. It was relatively spared from Allied bombings during World War II. Today, many flock to see the wonderfully intact old city and its many medieval structures. The 12th-century Stone Bridge was used by Crusaders en route to the Holy Land. The Regensburg Cathedral (or Dom St. Peter) is one of southern Germany's finest examples of Gothic architecture.

Golf Museum

The history of golf comes alive in a heritage-listed townhouse in the heart of Regensburg, just a stone´s throw from the Cathedral. You will experience an unforgettable journey through the history of golf from the Middle Ages to the Modern Era. More than 1200 exhibits and rarities have been collected together worldwide, wherever the Anglo-Saxons left their traces, tastefully presented and atmospherically illuminated in medieval vaults of an old patrician house. Beside a variety of multimedia shows including a kids corner the curator of the golf museum and golf historian Peter Insam also offers daily guided museum tours.

Haus der Bayerischen Geschichte

Ein Haus der Zukunft für die Geschichte der Gegenwart Bayern ist legendär, der Freistaat ein Erfolgsmodell, seine Kulturlandschaft hoch geschätzt. Es gibt in Bayern Museen zu den vielfältigsten Themen, nicht jedoch zu unserer jüngsten Geschichte, insbesondere zur Demokratiegeschichte. Mit dem neuen Museum bauen wir dafür einen Wissensspeicher. Im Mittelpunkt stehen die Menschen in Bayern, alle Stämme und auch die Zugezogenen von weither, die ihre Heimat hier gefunden haben. Der rote Faden in unserer Dauerausstellung lautet: Wie Bayern Freistaat wurde und was ihn so besonders macht.

A very modern museum in a modern building, it has lots of multimedia displays, and things to engage the attention of all ages. Labels and audio tour are available in English. Spending a few hours here is A great way to understand what makes this region a unique and special place.
