Where to stay in Wiblingen
The practical side of choosing where to sleep.
Wiblingen Abbey sets the pattern here. Beds cluster in central Ulm rather than in the district itself, so a stay in Wiblingen means choosing the calm of the abbey quarter over the range of the city's hotel supply. That trade is worth making for anyone whose interest is the abbey.
The Franziskuskirche end is plainer and quieter still.

About Wiblingen
What are the main landmarks in Wiblingen?
Wiblingen Abbey dominates. The monastic complex gives the district its name, its outline on the map, and the single sight that draws visitors out from central Ulm to see it. A second church, the Franziskuskirche, serves the ground beyond the abbey walls.
Between them they account for most of what a visitor comes to Wiblingen to look at.
What is the history of Wiblingen?
Abbey and district share one name. Wiblingen Abbey stands at the centre of what the district is known for, and the monastic foundation held this ground long before the surrounding streets answered to Ulm as one of its city districts. Ulm grew out to meet it.
The Franziskuskirche is the district's other named church.
Where is Wiblingen?
The abbey grounds anchor the district. Wiblingen spreads outward from them into the streets that carry it back toward the rest of Ulm, its parent city in Germany.
