Höher als alle Anderen

Higher than everyone else

Ulmcard Benefit: Free tower ascent! It rises like a gigantic Gothic cathedral (although strictly speaking it is a cathedral and not a cathedral). For this reason alone, Ulm Minster is extremely impressive. But beyond that, it is enthroned as the highest in the world with its church tower, which rises a proud 161 meters into the air! For those who make the effort to climb the 768 steps to the tower, breathtaking views keep opening up along the way. Between the filigree Gothic windows and the gargoyles, there are magnificent panoramas of the city and the surrounding countryside. On a clear day, you can even see as far as the Alps. Personally, I think it's definitely worth the effort! The people of Ulm began the construction of their civic church in 1377, financed solely by themselves. After a temporary standstill in construction, the spire was added to the cathedral in 1890. And if you look towards the ridge of the roof, you will see a copper Ulmer Sparrow at the top, the small unofficial landmark of the Danube city ...

UlmCard Benefit: Free admission!

During its existence between 1953 and 1968, the HfG Ulm developed into one of the most influential universities for designers worldwide. In Ulm, such iconic designs as the 'Ulmer Hocker', the stacking tableware 'TC 100' and the radio-phono combination 'SK 4' by Braun, which became famous as the 'Snow White's coffin', were created. The 'Ulm model' developed at the HfG, a concept of design based on science and technology, continues to set standards today.

Barocke Pracht erleben

Experience baroque splendour

UlmCard Benefit: Free admission The former Benedictine monastery is famous above all for its baroque library hall with its rich decoration of frescoes and sculptures. But the wonderful monastery church of St. Martin is also of great importance to this day. From the outside, the building looks monumental and austere due to the façade that was never completed. The bright church interior with its grandiose ceiling frescoes stands at the transition from late baroque to early classicism. A special visitor highlight is the ›Museum in the Convent Building‹. It focuses on the life of the subjects in the monastic state. They were the ones who, with their services and dues, ensured that Wiblingen was not only a place of prayer, but also a flourishing economy.

UlmCard Benefit: 1 cube garden with thyme scent The modern townhouse is located in the heart of Ulm right next to the world-famous Gothic cathedral. After more than 100 years of struggle for the prominent square in the middle of the city, it was built by the city of Ulm for its citizens. Designed by the American architect Richard Meier, it is a fascinating, light-flooded, architecturally and content-wise dynamic place. The interplay of styles, created by the immediate vicinity of the cathedral and the Stadthaus, is reflected in the programme of the Stadthaus: it is committed to tradition as well as modernity. Seven days a week, it is open to the citizens of Ulm as well as visitors from all over the world with free admission. At the beginning of 2019, it was added to the list of monuments of the state of Baden-Württemberg as a cultural monument of special importance. In the hall on the first level, numerous discussion forums and information events, concerts, readings and lectures, training courses and much more take place.
