Having climbed that tower a number of times, I can say that it's always exciting & fun! The first time was way back in 1960's,
as a little boy and I remember the struggle of those many, many stairs.
So very proud to call Ulm my second home,
and the place my mother and grandmother were from.

Wow gr8

Does anyone know which church sits at the highest mountain?

I studied in Ulm in 1996. Something rather rare happened at that time: The Münster has entirely devoid of scaffolding. It was quite a big deal for the locals.

Was stationed there from 1984 to 87. Loved it. Beautiful city

My Oma was born in Ulm in 1942. I very much want to visit Ulm and Germany one day in her memory. 🇩🇪

Germans are amazing. Their people, culture, foods, craftsmanship, engineering, fútbol, ... I’m an American who admires the Germans

[@atomicsaint9573]

No they are not

[@Deltathefancollector]

@@atomicsaint9573 How can you say the Germans are bad when they invented the automobile and the airbag? I understand if you don't like food, but saying their craftsmanship is poor isn't acceptable because it has to be among the best.

There is a taller one in Chicago - a Methodist Church standing 173m (568ft) tall.

[@dweuromaxx]

@John B It' s actually not. See for yourself why: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_United_Methodist_Church_of_Chicago

[@gmgunnhildr2711]

That’s a church inside a building, so it doesn’t count

The tallest church in the world is in Chicago. The Chicago Temple Building is 568 feet tall, your little church in Ulm is only 528 feet tall......sorry

[@dweuromaxx]

Since the whole building is not used as a church, it is not considered as the highest one. Sorry.😉

[@whitewolfvideo3536]

@@dweuromaxx Neither is your Church in Ulm...You just don't want to admit your church is smaller than ours in Chicago..By far I think yours is much more beautiful and the architecture is breathtaking...... but Chicago beats yours out by about 30 feet no matter how you try to justify it.

[@elennet4116]

@@dweuromaxx who set this weird rules? On what to consider and what not?
Just admit Ulm church is not tallest, why spread fake information to public

@@whitewolfvideo3536 The Chicago Temple Building is a 173 meter (568 foot) tall mix-use skyscraper , with a small portion used for "church activities" . It is the tallest church building in the World, though not the tallest church in the world (see Ulm Cathedral). Your dear Chicago Temple Building is not even counted in the list of churches by your US govt LMAO, it is church BUILDING having to follow zoning laws and tax laws.
