Appearance
Neu-Ulm is a town in Bavarian Swabia. It's just across the Danube from Ulm and until the early 19th century formed part of the self-governing Reichstadt Ulm before Neu-Ulm was incorporated into Bavaria while Ulm was incorporated into Württemberg, a predecessor state of modern Baden Württemberg. In many ways Neu-Ulm serves as a suburb of Ulm, but it has attractions of its own.
