Rieskrater Museum

Small museum dedicated to the Ries meteorite impact and its ejecta; shoot dramatic geological samples, interactive exhibits, and panoramic views of the circular Nördlinger basin from nearby town walls and the Daniel tower. Best visited weekday mornings or late afternoon for soft light on the town and crater; golden hour from the ramparts highlights the circular outline. Museum is centrally located in Nördlingen, has nearby paid parking, step access and limited tripod use inside—check opening/fee
