As I get older, I’m enjoying more déjà vu moments. On my most recent trip to Germany, I was wandering a back lane in Rothenburg and realized I’d been there before…in a little half-timbered gingerbread cottage built into the town wall. I stayed in a B&B there with my parents on my first trip to Europe, back in 1969 when I was just 14 years old. And with it came an unforgettable encounter with an old woman who had a bullet wound in her arm that she liked to show off… | Rick Steves

While filming our Protestant Reformation documentary in Germany, we decided to use Rothenburg's 16th-century settings to do my “on cameras.” It was perfect: Its Medieval Crime and Punishment Museum is the best of its kind. Its churches are quiet and stately in a 1500s Protestant kind of way. The ramparts just scream Thirty Years' War. And Jörg Christöphler, the very effective director of the Rothenburg tourism office, made sure we had access to whatever we needed to do our work well. Jörg actual

Join me in this clip as I visit my favorite wood carving in Europe, which has been on this spot in Rothenburg for 500 years. Let’s climb the spiral stairs together and get thrilled... as if we’re devout pilgrims 500 years ago, and this is a long-awaited highlight of our journey. | Rick Steves

While filming in Rothenburg at the amazing Medieval Crime and Punishment Museum, we got a behind-the-scenes look at how great museums don’t just happen. (Tacky and commercial “torture museums” — which you’ll find all over Europe — do just happen... but I’m talking about real museums that have real historic artifacts.) Put on some white gloves, click this video clip, and have a peek. | Rick Steves

Many don’t realize that the first people Hitler sent to his concentration camps weren’t everyday Jewish citizens, but his political opponents. So, when Trump rants about retribution, locking up his opponents, and giving them “very long sentences,” I can’t help but take him seriously… because history teaches us that is what fascist dictators do during their “Day One” period to consolidate their power. (After all, if you’re hellbent on staying in power but aren’t likely to win the next election, y

I have the same wonderful routine on all my guidebook research trips: Work with a local guide during the day (starting at 10 a.m.) and then, after a short break, meet another guide for the evening (starting at 6 p.m.). I get to know a lot of new guides this way, and I enjoy being reacquainted with guides I’ve known, recommended, and enjoyed for years — some of whom you’ll see in this short clip from my research trip to Portugal and Germany earlier this year. My days were spent sightseeing everyt
