Bamberg, Germany in 2010 – Part 1, Scenes of the City

Bamberg is a town in Upper Franconia, Germany, on the river Regnitz close to its confluence with the river Main. The town dates back to the 9th century, when its name was derived from the nearby Babenberch castle. Cited as one of Germany's most beautiful towns, its Old Town has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1993, with Bamberg being home to Europe's largest intact old city wall. Bamberg lost its independence in 1802, following the secularization of church lands. Hence becoming part of Bavaria in 1803. I am covering the city with 2 sets: this set, Part 1, is just of various city scenes. Part 2 will be of the Bamberg Cathedral, and a link to that set will appear at the end of this one.
