Ulm Minster

Every nice church. This church has the tallest tower in the world. You can pay 7 Euros and walk all the way to the top. Please ensure that you are semi fit....it is a long and winding staircase of over 750 steps. But the view is worth it. They are currently doing some restorations to the church so please bear with the noise.

Ulm Minster is breathtaking both inside and out. The Gothic architecture is incredibly detailed, and the interior is full of history — especially the 15th-century choir stalls with their intricate wood carvings. The highlight, of course, is climbing the tallest church spire in the world. It’s 768 steps up a narrow staircase, but the panoramic view over the city and, on clear days, even the Alps, makes it worth every step. Inside, the atmosphere is peaceful and bright, with beautiful stained-glass windows and an impressive organ. The Münsterplatz around the church is also lively, with cafés and markets (the Christmas market here is fantastic). Be prepared: the tower climb is steep and not for everyone, but if you can manage it, it’s unforgettable. Overall, Ulm Minster is one of Germany’s greatest landmarks. Highly recommended!

Ulm Minster is a magnificent Gothic church in Germany, known for having the tallest church tower in the world (161.5 m). Its construction spanned several centuries, and today it stands as a symbol of the city of Ulm. The interior impresses with intricate details, and from the top, there’s a panoramic view reaching all the way to the Alps. I highly recommend visiting this city – Ulm offers a unique blend of history, architecture, and charm. I’ve also added a few photos of this beautiful city.

I visited the Ulm Minster on my birthday and it was such a special experience. The structure is absolutely breathtaking – you can’t help but be amazed by how tall and detailed it is. I found out it’s actually the tallest church in the world, with a spire reaching about 161 meters high! It took several centuries to complete, starting in the 14th century and finally finishing in the late 1800s. Walking around the cathedral, I was blown away by the gothic architecture and how well-preserved everything is. The inside is peaceful and beautiful, and just standing there made me feel so small in the best way. I didn’t climb the tower this time, but even from the outside, it’s super impressive. If you’re ever in Ulm, you must visit this place. It made my birthday truly memorable. Totally worth it! 😊

An architectural masterpiece and one of the finest examples of the Gothic style. You will find brief information on the history of the church inside (although it is only in German - luckily translation is easy now with your phone). Interior is also a must see, and I believe it is also worth to go top of the church.

The tallest cathedral and second only to the one I Cologne. Beautiful architecture, rich history, amazing classwork, and paintings inside. You are sure to be amazed. I only wish they has audio guides that explained the back-stories!

Incredible cathedral soaring to unmatched heights (at the time) over th city of Ulm. It seems too big for the square is located into and its elaborate interior and exterior convey a sense of magnificence. It is possible to climb almost to the top (pay attention : long hike in a narrow staircase) ti enjoy the view of the entire city and beyond. Spectacular !

Ulm Münster: A Timeless Architectural Marvel 🌟 Just visited Ulm Münster, and wow—what an experience! Even with scaffolding up for renovations, this Gothic giant still blows your mind. The sheer height and intricate stone carvings make you feel tiny in the best way. Standing in the square, looking up at that massive spire, you can almost feel the centuries of history. Sure, the scaffolding hides some details, but it also reminds you this beauty is still cared for. Families, tourists, everyone mingling below—there’s a cool vibe, like the church is still the heart of the city after all these years. If you’re into history, architecture, or just want to be wowed by something bigger than yourself, don’t skip this. Even on a cloudy day, it’s breathtaking. Can’t wait to go back when the renovations finish to see every detail, but even as is, it’s a 10/10. #UlmMinster #GothicArchitecture #TravelGem #Germany
