50 German Words for Landmarks | A2 German Vocabulary | Wortschatz Sehenswürdigkeiten

Dreaming about castles on hilltops, old town squares, and jaw-dropping views—then realizing you don’t know what to call them in German? ✈️🏰 This vocabulary set is made for A2 learners who want travel-ready German that actually shows up on maps, signs, tour brochures, and everyday conversations. Sehenswürdigkeiten (landmarks/sights) are everywhere in German-speaking countries, and knowing these words makes your trip (or your reading/listening practice) instantly easier.

These 50 high-frequency words help you describe the places people love to visit: historic buildings, monuments, viewpoints, museums, bridges, churches, towers, parks, and more. They’re perfect for U.S. learners planning travel to Germany, Austria, or Switzerland—or anyone who wants to understand German travel content on YouTube, Instagram, blogs, and podcasts. Instead of guessing with English, you’ll be able to say what you mean with confidence: what you want to see, where you’re going, what impressed you, and what you’d recommend to a friend.

Want to level up faster? Try “visual anchoring”: when you hear a word, picture a landmark you’ve seen in photos (or your own city). Connecting German words to real images boosts recall like crazy—especially at A2.

This channel is focused on practical German vocabulary for the U.S. audience: clear word sets, useful topics, and steady progress without overwhelm. If you’re building your German step-by-step, you’re in the right place.
