Known for its natural hot springs since Roman times, Aachen has been a renowned spa destination for over 2,000 years. Discover the city’s historic charm on a captivating walking tour through its picturesque old town. Begin at the iconic Aachen Cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the final resting place of Charlemagne, where you’ll marvel at its majestic architecture and imperial legacy. Just nearby, explore the Cathedral Treasury, home to a remarkable collection of medieval relics and sacred artifacts. Continue to Centre Charlemagne, a modern museum that brings Aachen’s Roman and Carolingian past to life.
