Speyer is an ancient city located along the banks of the Rhine River in southwestern Germany. Founded by the Romans, it is most renowned for the Speyer Cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage site and a masterpiece of Romanesque architecture. The cathedral is also the final resting place for several emperors and kings, offering a historical and spiritual journey for visitors.
But the city is more than just its cathedral. Speyer is a hub for technological museums, featuring the Technik Museum Speyer, where you can explore vintage cars, locomotives, and even a jumbo jet. For those interested in religious history, the Judenhof houses remnants of a medieval synagogue and offers deep insights into the Jewish culture in the region.
