Donauwörth
Donauwörth Review
At the old walled town of Donauwörth, 28 km (17 mi) southeast of Nördlingen, the Wörnitz River meets the Danube. If you're driving, pull off into the clearly marked lot on B-25, just north of town. Below you sprawls a striking natural relief map of Donauwörth and its two rivers.
Käthe-Kruse-Puppen-Museum. The town is the home of the famous Käthe Kruse dolls, beloved for their sweet looks and frilly, floral outfits. You can buy them at several outlets in town, and they have their own museum, where more than 130 examples dating from 1912 are displayed in a specially renovated monastery building, the Käthe-Kruse-Puppen-Museum. Pflegstr. 21a, Nördlingen, 86609. 0906/789-170. €2.50. May and Sept., Tues.-Sun. 11-5; June, July, and Aug., Tues.-Sun. 10-5; Apr. and Oct., Tues.-Sun. 2-5; Nov.-Mar., Wed. and weekends 2-5; Dec. 25-Jan. 9, 2-5 daily.
