Top Attractions in Ulm
💡 Start near the Gänstor and follow the path east. It's short but connects to the riverbank for a longer walk to the Friedrichsau park. No cost, no opening hours.
💡 Look for the Schiefes Haus (crooked house) on the riverbank. Wander the side alleys for quiet spots away from the main path.
💡 Go early on a weekday to avoid queues. The climb costs €4 for under-18s and €7 for adults, but the church itself is free.
💡 It's a 15-minute walk from the city centre or take bus line 2. The greenhouses are best in the morning when the light is soft. Free entry but donations welcome.
💡 The exterior is the real highlight. Take your photo from the bridge on Schelergasse for the best angle. Skip the paid entry unless you want the backstory.
