Ulm is a historic city on the Danube featuring the world's tallest church steeple—the 161-meter Ulm Minster offering panoramic views after 768 steps. The medieval old town preserves half-timbered houses in the Fischerviertel (Fishermen's Quarter) along small canals. Beyond Gothic splendor, Ulm is Albert Einstein's birthplace and features modern architecture by the Danube. The city combines medieval charm with innovative spirit. This blend of record-breaking church, picturesque quarters, and intellectual heritage makes Ulm memorable on the Danube route.
