Orvieto. Medieval city centre | Italy #2
Переглядів 10 тис.6 років тому
A visit to Orvieto in Umbria, Italy. The old city rises dramatically above the neighbouring countryside as it is situated on a nearly-flat hill of volcanic tuff. There was a settlement on this well defensible position since at least Etruscan times. The current city centre is mostly medieval. The top sights include the gothic Duomo with its remarkable 14th-century facade and the 11th century-bui...

Fougères. Medieval town and castle | France #6
Переглядів 4,8 тис.6 років тому
My journey through northeastern Britanny ends with a visit to Fougères. This medieval gem turned out to be my favourite destination in this series. Fougères grew around the castle, which is - rather oddly - situated in a valley between two hills. The walled town was later expanded onto the hill. The most stunning sight in Fougères is the massive castle, closely followed by the timber-framed hou...
Saint-Malo - Intra-Muros. Historic town centre | France #5
Переглядів 1,4 тис.6 років тому
A visit to the inner town of the port town Saint-Malo, Brittany, France. The inner city is circled by walls. The heavily fortified town was once notorious for its independence from outside rule, making it a home for privateers, corsairs and pirates. The town was heavily bombarded during WW II but was restored in the years after. Nowadays, Saint-Malo is an interesting tourist destination. The to...
Dol-de-Bretagne. Historic city centre | France #4
Переглядів 6 тис.6 років тому
A visit to Dol-de-Bretagne in the French region of Brittany. Dol's history started with the founding of a Christian monastery in the 6th century by the monk Samson (later revered as saint). The Breton Nominoë declared himself king of Brittany here in the 9th century and turned the city into the region's religious centre. Traces of the old days remain. Dol's historic sights include the cathedral...
The Mont Saint-Michel | France #3
Переглядів 1,2 тис.6 років тому
A visit to one of France's most visited patrimonial sites: the Mont St Michel in Normandy. The rocky tidal island, about 1km from the shore, has held a strategic position since ancient times. A large medieval monastery (from which the island draws its name) is built on the crest of the rock.
Vitré in Brittany. Medieval town centre | France #2
Переглядів 6 тис.6 років тому
A visit to Vitré in Brittany, France. Vitré is a medieval walled town with many historic monuments. Large sections of the 13th-century ramparts remain, especially on the north side of the town. There is also a medieval faubourg (suburb) on the north side of town. Vitré was heavily fortified during the Middle Ages, as it was situated on the border between the Duchy of Britanny and the Kingdom of...
Rennes. Historic city centre | France #1
Переглядів 5 тис.6 років тому
A visit to Rennes, the historic capital of Britanny. The city has a long history going back to Gallic and Roman times. It was one of the major cities of the independent Duchy of Brittany. This duchy eventually became part of the Kingdom of France in 1547 after centuries of struggles. Because of its strategic importance, Rennes was heavily fortified during the Middle Ages. Some traces of Rennes'...
Romantic Rhine: Bacharach | Germany #12
Переглядів 12 тис.6 років тому
A visit to Bacharach. One of the many gems along the Middle Rhine, also known as the 'Romantic Rhine'. Bacharach is a small town with a well preserved medieval centre. Sights include the timber-framed 'Altes Haus', built in the second half of the 14th century, and the castle Stahleck. Tip: walk the circular tour along the town walls, this path leads you to the castle and provides fine views ove...
Lahn Valley: Nassau and Limburg. Medieval towns | Germany #11
Переглядів 6 тис.6 років тому
We leave the Rhine and make our way into the valley of the river Lahn. The valley of the meandering Lahn is very picturesque, and there are many sites worth a visit on the way. Our first stop is Nassau. The castle, Burg Nassau, is the ancestral seat of the princely house of Nassau and the namesake of other entities with the name Nassau. The most famous branch of the Nassau family is the house O...
Marksburg Castle in Braubach | Germany #10
Переглядів 1,8 тис.6 років тому
Our next stop along the Middle Rhine is Braubach. Braubach is a pleasant small town with many half-timbered houses and other relics of the past. Its main attraction is Marksburg castle. This twelfth-century castle is the only medieval castle along this stretch of the Rhine that was never destroyed. The castle also offers fine views of the Rhine valley.
Really a hidden gem-fabulous Roman museum too and friendly people...

Wonderful historic city
so actually we can claim this as ours ;-)
Stunning York 👍❤️
ein Tag ist zu kurz.
Everyone visits the old Medieval center, if you want to see the entire city, go see the industrial part as well. This city holds fond memories for me as I lived there as a youth from 1979 to 1980.
I lived there in 85! Almost got married there.
Very nice 😮😏😉
👏👏👏👏
I'm watching this for the 2nd time. Still trying to find the connection between Tchaikovsky's 1812 and a medieval town in France
Next time visit Hagen statue on the Rhein, where he's throwing the Niebelungen Treasure.
Good that Germany still has her old statues! The USA recently got rid of most of it’s statues as the Marxists rewrite our history! God help us!
ich bin speyer aufgewachsen und wohne seit langer zeit außerhalb von deutschland, dieses video bringt so viele erinerrungen und emotionen. danke fürs filmen. ♥
Half the video is of a train and funicular... why waste time on those? Filmed on a grey, dark day; not very inviting
That's plenty to be seen in Orvieto, worthwhile to go and pay at least a two days visit to it! The Duomo, various museums (Faina, Opera del Duomo, Emilio Greco, Archeological), two wells (St. Patricks and Of the Cave), few stunning churches, Torre del Moro, Theatre Mancinelli, two Etruscan's archeological sites (Del Belvedere and Crocefisso di Tufo Necropholis) are enough? ;-)
