Citizens of the USA and the United Kingdom can visit Germany without a visa for up to 90 days within any 180-day period for tourism purposes. Their passports must be valid for at least three months beyond the intended date of departure from the Schengen Area. Germany is part of the Schengen Area, so time spent in other Schengen countries is also counted. It is recommended to have medical insurance for the duration of the trip.
In Memmingen, we recommend taking a walk around the city to admire the variety of brightly painted houses, find the House with Seven Roofs, and the ornate Steuerhaus building, and also appreciate the decor of St. Martin's Church.
On a fine day, you can relax at Schrannenplatz or learn about the city's history at the local museum.
You can reach Memmingen from Allgäu Airport by taking buses No. 2 and 810/811. You can also use a taxi. If you are traveling light and don't mind a bit of exercise, you can walk to the city – it's 4 km away.
In Memmingen, try the traditional Bavarian cuisine: Obatzda cheese spread made from grated cheese with curd, onions, herbs, and butter.
Also, don't forget the famous pretzel, eintopf soup – so hearty it can replace a full meal, as well as liver dumpling soup and pancake soup.
And of course, there's pork knuckle, knödel, and marinated meat. For dessert, you should try strudel and Agnes-Bernauer-Torte.
