Alte Kapelle
(Alter Kornmarkt 8)
South of the Dom, the humble exterior of the graceful Alte Kapelle
belies the stunning interior with its rich rococo decorations. The core of the church,
however, is about 1000 years old, although the Gothic vaulted ceilings were added in the
Middle Ages. The church is open only during services but you can always peek through
the wrought-iron grill.
CHURCH
Roman Wall
The most tangible reminder of the ancient Castra Regina (Regen Fortress), where the
name 'Regensburg' comes from, is the remaining Roman wall, which follows Unter den
Schwibbögen and veers south onto Dr-Martin-Luther-Strasse. Dating from AD 179 the
key reminder of the city's heritage.
