Nestled by the water’s edge in Ulm, Germany, the Fishermen’s Quarter (Fischerviertel) is a historic artisan enclave where half-timbered houses and water-mill wheels stand alongside modern galleries and courtyard restaurants. These restored buildings, once home to fishermen, shipbuilders, and tanners, are now characterized by their crooked, tilted, and hunched appearance. Visitors can wander through the narrow streets, capturing the picturesque scenes that attract photographers and painters, and enjoy a meal in one of the charming eateries.
