Kempten

Kempten

Kempten, one of the oldest cities in Germany, is nestled in the gently rolling hills of Allgäu and is a worthwhile stop on a convertible tour through Bavaria. The city combines impressive Roman history with a vibrant urban landscape.

At the Archaeological Park Cambodunum, visitors can immerse themselves in the world of the Romans and admire original excavations that vividly illustrate ancient life. The baroque residence, the neoclassical town hall, and the St. Lorenz Basilica give the city center a historically developed yet simultaneously fresh flair.

Enjoyable drives through the pre-Alps

Around Kempten, there are breathtaking routes for a relaxed convertible tour through the Bavarian pre-Alps. The Allgäu landscape with its lush green meadows, small lakes, and expansive views of the Alps is perfect for drives with the top down. The route over Oy-Mittelberg or along the Alpsee is particularly charming, where panoramas and small villages alternate. A detour to Füssen or to the royal castles can also be wonderfully planned.

Kempten on the baroque culture route

Kempten is located on the Upper Swabian Baroque Road, which can be excellently combined with a convertible tour through Bavaria. Between artistically adorned churches and magnificent residences, the region offers a culturally and scenically appealing backdrop. For travelers looking to combine history, enjoyment, and nature, Kempten is the ideal starting point – with plenty of opportunities for small stops at traditional inns and beautiful viewpoints.

Conclusion: History, landscape, and driving fun

Kempten authentically connects history, nature, and southern German lifestyle. The city is not only a cultural highlight but also an ideal starting point for explorations in the picturesque Allgäu and beyond.
