Historic old town of Xanten

Highlight • Historical Site

Xanten is a beautiful historic city. The Gothic House is one of the oldest buildings in Xanten, built in 1540 as a trading house, and presents itself again in its former glory. The wooden beamed ceilings, the walls, the roof truss and the historic facade have been preserved undamaged.

Xanten Town Center

Highlight • Settlement

Xanten is a nice cozy place, definitely worth a visit. Possibly for a stop during your bike ride. There is a lot of history to be discovered, much to see (from the Middle Ages and Roman times). The area is also beautiful, it is sloping.
