Great Escapes: Germany
Germany’s landscapes stretch from the North Sea islands to the Alps, offering an extraordinary range of cultures, histories, and scenery. In this tenth volume of the Great Escapes series, Angelika Taschen showcases the country’s most inspiring places to stay — from grand hotels, family guesthouses, palaces, and an abbey to glamping tents. Beautiful photography and insightful texts accompany each characterful destination, whether overlooking the Baltic Sea, the Black Forest, the Moselle Valley, or the Allgäu.
Taschen highlights unforgettable stays such as Lübeck’s elegant Reederin, the historic Grand Hotel Heiligendamm, the tranquil St. Oberholz Retreat, the Bauhaus Dessau Atelierhaus, and Bach-centric Hotel Stadthaus Arnstadt. Explore Max Dudler’s architecture at Gut Cantzheim, enjoy Black Forest hospitality at the Spielweg hotel, or sleep in Zum Egle 1336, a bed and breakfast in a 700-year-old buildig in Konstanz. From Rothenburg’s Romantik Hotel Markusturm to Ulm’s Schiefes Haus and Bavaria’s serene Beuerberg Abbey, each spot blends atmosphere, heritage, and practical travel details — plus curated book recommendations for the journey.
