Fodor's Expert Review Nibelungenmuseum Worms

This stunning sight-and-sound exhibition is dedicated to Das Nibelungenlied (Song of the Nibelungs), the epic German poem dating to around 1200. Cleverly installed in two medieval towers and the portion of the Old Town wall between them, the exhibition brings to life the saga of the dragon slayer Siegfried. The architecture of the structure itself is also fascinating, and the rampart provides a wonderful view of the town. There is a choice of two tours: the Song of the Nibelungs, and Wagner's Ring of the Nibelungs. Each tour script (via multimedia guide) is offered in English. Allow two hours for a thorough visit.
