Via Romea Germanica

The Via Romea Germanica is one of many paths leading to Rome from various countries across Western Europe. This particular route runs from Stade, in northern Germany, crossing the Brennero Pass and Bolzano, all the way to Rome.

It was first described by Abbot Albert, who headed the Saint Mary Monastery in Stade, as the best way to reach Rome. To this day, it remains an important pilgrimage route to the Vatican.
