My favorite thing in Rothenburg

I thought this was a very interesting museum. While the English information is limited, it was so fascinating to see such a well preserved home. The docent was knowledgeable and explained things that didn't have English information available. I would highly recommend.

Interesting place, worth a visit

We were told about this house but since it wasn't part of the "main" attractions we almost missed it, we are glad we didn't. For only 3 Euros we learn a lot about the old times. It's fascinating to see a fully preserved house from...More

This review is limited to the Handwerkerhaus, not the tour

The house museum is open after 1 pm. Ticket is €3/person + €0.5 for the brochure. The information on the brochure is very limited. Whatever information, if any, posted outside the rooms on the wall is in German. The display of craftsman's tools include boot...More

Excellent city tour!

I would highly recommend city tour organized by "Alt-Rothenburger Handwerkerhaus". The concept of this tour is craftsman widower, she is a fine lady who has been married with more than one craftsman. So, she knows everything about crafting and she tells you all about it....More

Step into the medieval past

Possibly one of the most moving house tours you can ever take. To see what hardship our ancestors endured to bring us to our current civilization is humbling.

Short Visit But Interesting

Interesting old home. Limited information on the brochure. Would have been fascinating to know more, like what some of the many implements were for, and who lived in the second-best bedroom, and the one upstairs. Were they employees? Family members? Tenants? But still, a treat...More
