Worms. Medieval city centre | Germany #3

Tour through the German town Worms. The city has a very rich history. It was once the capital of the Roman successor kingdom of the Burgundians in the early 5th century and it plays a role in the medieval epic poem 'Nibelungenlied' (The Song of the Nibelungs). It was at the Romanesque cathedral (one of the finest examples of Romanesque architecture in Germany) where the reformer Martin Luther defended his views and writings in the face of Emperor Charles V at the Diet of Worms in 1521. The town has also had a large Jewish population through a long period of its history and just outside the medieval walls lies the oldest Jewish graveyard in Europe, the oldest graves dating to the eleventh century.

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.

Next time visit Hagen statue on the Rhein, where he's throwing the Niebelungen Treasure.

[@christianfreedom-seeker934]

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!
