Roughly halfway along the 350-kilometre Romantic Road (Romantische Strasse in southern Germany is the delightful medieval half-timbered town of Nördlingen. As part of a bowl-shaped cratered area created by a meteorite strike (many millions of years ago), Nördlingen is rich in history. The circular 14th century town walls along with its towers and gates survive intact and make for a superb three kilometre stroll around the edge of this picturesque town centre.

Thos houses almost look too perfect to be true - like toytown houses

Hey, I think I have a 2000 pcs jigsaw puzzle with this complex on it. It's lovely. Must be something getting to live in those houses. :oD
Good wording which is helpful and informative for the tourists.
Very nice house !
They dont look real - I would love to live in a house like that.
