Nordlingen
Another charming corner is Nördlingen, a medieval town that has the peculiarity of having been built inside a gigantic crater formed by the impact of a meteorite that fell about 15 million years ago. The most curious thing is that until the middle of the 20th century it was believed that the hole was of volcanic origin. The town is surrounded by a wall that forms an almost perfect circle. In addition, it has been converted into a geopark.
Lindau

Of course, what is most surprising about the town is the impressive Marksburg Castle and the forests that surround it.
Bremm
One of the most romantic towns in Germany is Bremm, located in the Moselle Valley. Surrounded by vineyards , it is close to Mont Calmont, where the steepest vineyards on the entire continent are found. It is for this reason that its wines have those special characteristics so appreciated by lovers of good wine.
Wernigerode
Wernigerode is another fairytale town that can be found in Germany. Located in the Harz hills, it is practically unchanged, so you will be amazed by its emerald half-timbered houses. Nor can you miss the lagoons located in the north of the town, formed due to the confluence of the Holtemme River with the Barrenbach.
Bernkastel-kues
Finally, we want to tell you about Bernkastel-kues, a city of the Rhineland-Palatinate state founded in the 14th century near the Moselle river.
