Founded by the Romans, Speyer is one of the oldest towns in Germany.
Speyer Cathedral, a number of other churches, and the Altpörtel(“old gate”) dominate the Speyer landscape. In the cathedral, beneath the high altar, are the tombs Holy Roman Emperors and German Kings.
The city has a long and important history dating from 10BC.
