Renting an Apartment in Bamberg: What to Know

Bamberg is a UNESCO World Heritage old town with a rental market that's tighter than its size suggests — a combination of the city's popularity and a smaller student population from the University of Bamberg. With 14,000 students in a city of 78,000, demand is real, especially around semester starts.
