Aachen deserves a visit for this singualar monument centred around the royal chapel of Charlemagne. Ravenna in a Gernan setting.

Aachen Cathedral is as impressive inside as it is outside. We had to wait until 10.45am to enter as a service was taking place - it was well worth the wait! The city is easy to navigate around on foot and there is plenty to see.
