      Even if they get up to Hamburg, there are still 160km north to the danish border. These places should be'd mentioned too.

    There was even one town that I've never heard of before - and I'm German. All the towns of this video were in southern Germany and there are a lot of pittoresque towns in the North and East too.
    I can recommend Speyer, Neustadt/Wstr., Weißenburg (Wissembourg, It's French but just beyond the border), Meisenheim am Glan, Prüm, Bad Mümstereifel, Dietz and Limburg/Lahn, Naumburg, Quedlinburg, Göttingen, Goslar, Lübeck.

    Zell am Harmersbach was in HRE era a Reichsstadt/ Imperial Town. At one side, where the Harmersbach ( a little river) reaches the town, there was one of the last microstaes , created in HRE : Reichstal/ Imperial Valley Oberharmersbach.

    As a German, I have one piece of advice for you: visit places with the word “Bad” in the name. "Bad" doesn't mean bad, but "bath". These are all very nice places for relaxation. They are healthy spa towns and they are so beautiful. There are several “Bath”-Towns around my hometown. There are old salt springs and salt mines there. And there are huge Gradierwerke (graduation towers), you can walk through a park and the salt water ripples down the walls from above. This ensures that it is very pleasant in summer and you breathe super healthy, fresh, salty air. It's like the salty air of the North Sea, but without the North Sea. It is wunderbar! There are beautiful rose gardens and lots of flowers in the parks. There are deck chairs for two people, where you can lie down together in the summer and enjoy the surroundings of nature and the fresh salty air. You also can go up on the gradiation tower, enjoying a nice view or you can also go under the graduation towers through an old salt mine. There are nice little cafes everywhere where you can enjoy delicious German cake or you can go out to eat in one of the many restaurants and enjoy real traditional German food together with German beer or a wonderful glass of German wine. Everything is so peaceful and relaxing there. Or you go in one of these spa´s, maybee also open air direct in the nature and having a bath in salty healty water. You are surronded by arts and flowers everywere. I´ll would like to show you an video of Bad Rothenburg in North-Rhine Westfalia in the north-west of Germany near the Teutoburger Wald (Teutoburg Forrest), where Herman the Great, also called Arminius, destroyed the huge and powerful Roman legions in ancient times only with a horde of wild Germans: ua-cam.com/video/xjlFUaMxEcs/v-deo.html - I´ll invite you to come here, we Germans are very friendly and hospitable and will be happy if you like it. You're always "sehr herzlich willkommen" (very warm welcome).

    "Usually winding roads" = many cities and towns in Germany and Europe existed 1300+ years ago.
    Originally, the houses, churches, town hall or seat of the former "Landvogt"/governor (sometimes regionally called Droste) were built around the market square. The streets lead out of the city from this market square.
    As the towns grew larger over the centuries, there are often other "market squares" in the districts of larger cities from which streets lead towards the city (now city center) or to the next town (now district).

    Where is the oldest half-timbered house in Lower Saxony?
    Built in 1420, the half-timbered house, one of the oldest in Lower Saxony and the oldest half-timbered building in Northeim, was restored in 1997 and now houses the museum's exhibition rooms, the town marketing office and the tourist information office.

    Most cities in Germany have local laws that limits the way how new houses can be build. In Hamburg e. g. it was not allowed to alter the view of the city that includes seven towers of churches.
    If you like to go with a boat by yourself: you can rent a "Hausboot" in different regions of Central Europe, where you can live with two to eight poeple (or more, if you like). You can "drive" these boats by yourself after a short lessen. Where and how far you can go depends on the region you book the boat.
    With the number of 15 little towns they were not able to show all pretty little towns. I miss Lüneburg and Lübeck, maybe they don´t look nice enough because there are no mountains in the back 🤣

    Hi from Heidelberg. About the Student prison:
    The Ruprecht-Karls-Universität in Heidelberg is the oldest university in Germany and was founded in the 14th century, 3.in place after the Charlemagne University Prague, Czech Republic (1348), Vienna, Austria (1365) and Heidelberg (1386) in the Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation.
    At that time, universities had the privilege of their own jurisdiction and special prisons for students were common. The student prison in Heidelberg was established in 1778 and was in operation until the beginning of the First World War in 1914. Typical student life at the time was largely characterized by the various fraternities such as corps, country societies and fraternities. In order to avoid turmoil and quarrels in the dungeons, the inmates were always housed separately according to their affiliation to these associations. During the last 100 years before the closure, the offenses punished with a stay in these rooms were only trivial offenses and disciplinary proceedings. Disturbing the peace or causing a public nuisance were often punished in this way. Depending on the severity of the offense, the responsible bailiff usually imposed an arrest for a period of at least three days up to a maximum of four weeks. The students, most of whom had carried out relatively harmless pranks while drunk, were still allowed to attend their lectures at the university. Afterwards, they had to return to their cells.
    The Heidelberg Studentenkarzer is one of the most popular sights for visitors to Heidelberg's Old Town. The entrance to the Studentenkarzer is located at Augustinergasse 2, not far from the University Square in Heidelberg's Old Town. It can be visited together with the University Museum, which is also accessible via Augustinergasse 2.
    Look also for Burg Eltz. DW Travel has a good Video called Eltz Castle in Germany: Would you like to live here?

    Ich habe faktisch von jedem Ort gehört leider aber nur die Hälfte besucht . Asche über mein Haupt.
    Weinheim , Marburg Rothenburg dürften ca im 3std. Radius sein
    So bei Weinheim und Rothenburg ziemlich nah beieinander liegen. Gut für einen Wochenend Ausflug. Es gibt viel dieser Orte
    In Deutschland Speyer fehlt mir auf der Liste ist auch nicht soweit weg von seinen Schwiegereltern in RLP bzw Baden-Württemberg
    Da sind aber ziemlich grösse Städte auf der Liste Immerhin hat Heidelberg so 160 000 Einwohner.
    Nur ein kleiner Rat wenn du die Chance hast fahr nicht in den Sommermonaten in die Highlights da wirst Du vor lauter Leuten nicht die ganze Athmosphäre geniessen können. Wenn du dein Motorrad hast hast du in der Eifel sowieso schon ein Traumzeil
    Vor der Haustüre. Wenn du die Möglichkeit hast empfehle ich eigentlich sich ein paar Tage für einzelne Regionen Zeit zu nehmen. Schwarzwald oder die Lüneburger Heide. Sächsische Schweiz, das Voralpenland Nord - und Ostsee
    Oh soviel zu sehen und sowenig Zeit. Achja Kassel nicht gerade eine Kleinstadt aber mächtig viel zu sehen idealer Weise wenn die Wasserspiele stattfinden Nachteil du musst früh da sein und man muss Treppen steigen aber das lohnt sich wirklich !
    Sorry für das durcheinander.

    As you've seen: it's mostly about bavaria. And I'm from the far north. (btw: I'm pretty sure this was an AI voice. Proof: it said the name "Füssen" in crystal clear german a few times. But misspelled it @ min 38:39.) Try look up the "Hanse". Cities, that where major trading centres. Some still carry it in the name.
    I.e.: Lemgo does not. Just the Hanse should make a great topic and places to explore.
    You haven't lived, until you've tasted the marzipan icecream at the Niederegger house in Lübeck! (Just jokin')
    Near Schleswig was the viking city of Haithabu, some 1000yrs ago. Did you know that the largest vessel they built (the Knutt) was a transporter, carrying 40to of load? 1000yrs ago? Trading goods from the vikings have been found deep into asia.
    Just a few ideas.

      Bias by the creator of the original video. Or let's say, that these regions shown in the video, got a lot of money and a powerful tourism lobby. A tourism lobby, that tend to pay money for professional traveling guides, who're boosting their tourism industry. They want tourists to be drawn to them, hence only southern German cities and towns in the video. Northern Germany has just as beautiful things to offer.
