After cruising through so many small towns in Germany, I was actually happy to see the sites of the much larger town of Cologne, Germany. But first we needed to see the sites of Regensburg, Wűrzburg, Bamberg and other small towns along the Rhine River. Humm, what is a ‘burg’ vs a ‘berg’ town? ‘Berg’ as in Bamberg indicates a town on or near a hill or mountain. ‘Burg’ as in Wűrzburg describes past fortification, likely a town with a wall built around a medieval fortress.
