You'll find plenty to surprise you with medieval buildings and squares as well as small shops selling regional products. Enjoy spending time in the many small cafés an restaurants you'll regularly come across in the old town. Several times a week, there is a lively fruit and vegetable market on Burgplatz; a place when many locals meet.
