walhalla temple

Our experience at the Walhalla Temple was sort of like the one we had at Neuschwanstein Castle- it's great to go to see it, but it's not life-changing. Yes, the view is beautiful. Yes, the art and architecture is stunning. Yes, the interior is a lot smaller than you think it will be. We paid something like 4 Euro for the audio tour, which I would recommend skipping unless you loooove history.It might be more worth the drive on a warm, sunny day if you like to picnic.

Striking building, great views from the top of the temple onto the Danube. It's worth going inside to see the busts and the interior, but don't expect to spend hours there - the inside of the temple is quite small. The climb up to the temple from the road may be a little challenging - especially in snow, but it's worth it.A word of warning - if the temple is covered in snow, the climb can be quite treacherous, expect to fall a few times and stay away from the edges.

Lovely architecture and a great workout if you want to walk all the stairs. No handrails, tough for older folks.

This copy of the Parthenon is gloriously situated on a hill above the Danube and can be seen quite clearly whilst on a Danube River Cruise. If we had more time in Regensburg I would have loved to visit. There are many steps to get to the actual building so accessibility may present a problem.

Some place, I came upon this by chance, a worth while stop. Not so much into the history of it all, but the views were very nice!

Driving out in the country side outside Regensburg is this impressive Greek influenced building. Inside are busts of famous Germans. Purchased the English book that explains everyone represented. The building is in a beautiful location along the Danube.

This copy of the Parthenon is gloriously situated on a hill above the Danube. It is worth visiting for the view alone. The great and the good are commemorated by statues on plinths in the huge inner room. There are very few Jews and women but it is interesting.

Walhalla itself isn't a particularly interesting visit unless you're interested in dead German people. It's just a collection of busts of famous people connected with Germany (and no, Adolf ain't there). But I have to say that on a summers day it is a great day trip. Catch the ferry and admire the wonderful view. Take a packed lunch and enjoy it. Much better than a hall of dead faces!

We rode bikes here from our river boat and then climbed the steps to the top of the monument. It is very impressive looking out from the top. Small inside, not a lot to see really. The top flight of stairs is quite steep. There are not hand rails the entire way.

You can either wlak or drive to the imposing Walhalla. The views from Walhalla are impressive (even on a snowy day), once inside the sheer size of the building is almost as impressive. The history timeline on display inside is interesting and (here's that word again!) impressive (some of the characters sligthly less so).Certainly worth the effort to visit because of where it is, the size of it and what it contains within.

We went to Walhalla from Regensburg by ship which was a lovely ride! Visiting the building resumes to like stairs as there are a lot of them. Really a lot!Once upstairs you have a beautiful view!! Stay there for a while before you "climb" down again :)

An impressive landmark with an impressive history all in itself. A must see when in the vicinity. Walking up the hill may be too strenuous for some though but there is a parking place behind the recreational area. A good preparation for the visit is the short history intro on the river cruise boat. It helps to know your Ludwig II and it helps even more to read up on the famous Germans you will find on display in the hall. For some, some of the fame has faded though and a guide booklet will be your saving grace ;-)

It takes a bit long time to reach there . And you walk too much to the temple. There is too many steps, ıt make difficult to go there. But finally you reach, feel really perfect. All regensburg and donau river on your foot. The temple has different style. It was built the highest point of regensburg, great feelling to be there.

Great views, very beautiful on a summer's day. Drive to the carpark, don't walk up unless you're quite fit!

you can get a amazing landscape of the valley and think about the past looking the marble statues inside the temple.
