You smell the charcoal first . You are in Regensburg , a city in the state of Bavaria in southern Germany . The Steinerne Brücke stretches ahead of you across the Danube , its pale stone piers sunk into the current . The bridge was finished around 1146 , making it roughly 880 years old . For centuries it was the city 's only bridge across the Danube . Merchants , pilgrims , and armies all funnelled across it . Step onto the bridge and feel the irregular surface beneath your shoes . The water below is fast and pewter - coloured , pressing hard against the stone . Cross toward the old town on the far bank . At the southern end of the bridge , pressed close to the water 's edge , stands the Historische Wurstkuchl . It is a compact sausage kitchen that has been grilling over charcoal for centuries . It is considered one of the oldest continuously operating establishments of its kind in the world . Order six small sausages . They arrive charred at the edges and served with a sweet , grainy mustard . Carry your plate outside to the wooden benches beside the Danube . The same river you just crossed is running a metre below your feet . Remember the medieval stone , the wood smoke and the cold river air . Remember the sweet mustard too . Together they are the one thing to take home from Regensburg .
