💡 Come early evening for the best atmosphere without paying for a drink. The square is especially lively during Saturday market.
💡 Start at the Reinoldikirche and follow the signs towards the Wallring — there's a small free observation point near the Markt where you can see the old gate structure. Best visited during a quiet weekday.
💡 Look for the brass plaques in the pavement marking the original wall line — kids enjoy spotting them.
💡 Start at the Alte Markt square and follow the 'Stadtmauer-Rundgang' markers — the full loop takes 30 minutes and passes three tower ruins you might otherwise miss. Free printed guide available at the tourist office.
💡 Climb the 313 steps to the top on a clear day — best free panorama of the city, and there's a small exhibition on church history halfway up.
💡 Climb the 200+ steps to the top for a clear view; it's steep but worth it. Quietest before 10am.
💡 Free to walk around; the Christmas market here in December is a big draw. Grab a currywurst from a stall—it's cheap and local.
