Bismarckplatz, Historic square at western end of old town, Regensburg, Germany

The classicist buildings of the Presidential Palace and Municipal Theater establish the architectural identity of this stone-paved central gathering space.

In 1803, architect Emanuel Herigoyen divided a large Roman-era plaza into Bismarckplatz and Arnulfsplatz, creating two separate public spaces in Regensburg.

The square hosts the annual Regensburg Jazz Weekend since 1982 and features a regular Saturday market offering regional products from local vendors.

Underground parking facilities constructed in 1981 provide convenient access to the square, which connects to Schottenstraße and Gesandtenstraße.

Archaeological excavations uncovered a bronze military diploma from 113 AD, granting Roman citizenship to soldier Marcus Ulpius Fronto.
