👉 The German city of Cologne (“Köln” in German) isn’t exactly known for having lots of old buildings.

Sadly. much of Cologne’s old town was destroyed by bombing attacks during World War II.

And even to this day, construction workers still find WW2 bombs in the ground every other week, which then have to be detonated in a controlled environment.

So I was surprised when the tour guide pointed out one of Cologne’s oldest surviving houses, dating back to 1676!

This was during a food tour through the “Südstadt” neighborhood, not far from the Severin Gate. 🤗

This house was once the home of a wealthy beer brewer family. 🍻

Today, the historic house has been converted into (very expensive!) apartments. Part of the house is also used for the city’s library.✨

Planning to visit Munich on your ancestry-inspired trip to Germany? Then don’t miss these 4 Munich experiences (that you can enjoy in every season!): 🇩🇪😍

1. Soak up the energy at Munich’s “Marienplatz” square 😇
- Start your Bavarian sightseeing adventure on Munich’s central square: the Marienplatz. Watch the famous “Glockenspiel” carillon and check out the nearby food market “Viktualienmarkt”.
- Location: Marienplatz, Munich

2. Start your day the Bavarian way with beer & sausage 🍺
- Yes, beer for breakfast is a thing in Bavaria! But not in the rest of Germany! A white sausage (even vegan in my case!), sweet mustard, a warm pretzel, and a light 0,5 liter wheat beer make for a great start into the day! 😂
- Location: Traditional beer halls and markets in Munich

3. Take a day trip to remember 🏰🚆
- From Munich, you can easily reach postcard-perfect places like Neuschwanstein Castle or Salzburg in Austria - either on guided tours or individually by train or rental car.
- Location: Bavarian Alps or Salzburg in Germany’s neighboring country Austria

4. Get your Oktoberfest fix all year long 🍻
- Sitting in Munich’s so-called English Garden with an oversized beer and a pretzel (German: Brezel) feels like a “mini Oktoberfest moment” without the crowds. This is Munich at its most relaxed and most authentic.
- Location: Englischer Garten (English Garden), Munich

🏡 This May, I joined my 6 guests (cousins) from Wisconsin, USA on the day they visited their ancestral hometown Rickert in Schleswig-Holstein (northern Germany).

Their common ancestor had emigrated from here in 1882. 🚢 🌊

When I planned their trip for them, we were lucky to find a local heritage association whose members could connect them to their living relatives! 🤗

They still live on the same farm their ancestor used to live at! They welcomed them with a German lunch as well as the typical coffee and cake! ☕️ 🍰

We also visited their ancestral church, stood at the centuries-old baptismal font, listened to a spontaneous organ concert, and explored a historic house and museum that showed what everyday life looked like for their ancestors in the 1800s. 🏡

🚆 Planning to take the trains to get around in Germany?

🚨Make sure you read these (hidden) rules first!

So you can enjoy the scenery and make your journey all smooth riding!

1. 📲 Get the Deutsche Bahn app. It’s in English, lets you buy tickets, check schedules, and shows real-time updates. For example delays, cancellations (which happens more often than you think!) as well as platform changes.

2. 💼 Pack light and carry your own bags on the train. There are no porters, and stations can be busy.

3. 🚄 Reserve seats on the high-speed, so-called ICE trains, especially at busy times. On regional trains, seat reservations are usually not possible though.

4. ⏱ Build in some buffer time. Delays and cancellations can always happen. You don’t have to be at the train station as early as at the airport, but get there within reasonable time so you are not stressed! I would recommend 30 minutes to 1 hour before your train departs.

5. 🚉 Let people exit before you board. It’s considered rude if you get in before everyone from the inside is out. 😉
