Welcome to Bayreuth, a city where baroque beauty, rich brewing traditions, and deep cultural heritage come together. Famous for its beer and Franconian wines, Bayreuth is also home to magnificent architecture, leafy squares, and a story that reaches far beyond its world-renowned opera house. From sipping a local brew in a centuries-old beer garden to standing before the restored old synagogue that bears witness to the city’s Jewish history, Bayreuth offers travelers a journey through taste, time, and tradition. We also hear how the German National Tourist Board presents heritage and modernity in one attractive package.
