Stendal

4
out of 5

Stendal is a sleepy town in the north-east of Germany that’s often overlooked by tourists. But it’s well worth a visit, not only for its charming old town centre, but also for the magnificent cathedral that dominates the skyline. The red-brick structure is one of the largest in Germany, and its imposing presence is a reminder of the city’s rich history. Stendal was once an important trading centre, and the wealth of the merchants is still evident in the ornate architecture of the old town. There are several other interesting museums in Stendal, including one dedicated to the city’s porcelain industry, and a lively arts scene that ranges from classical music to avant-garde theatre. The people are friendly and the beer is good, so make sure to put Stendal on your list of places to visit in Germany.
