All cities and nearly all larger towns in Germany have tourist offices. The German National Tourist Board headquarters is at Beethovenstrasse 69, 60325 Frankfurt am Main (tel. 069/75-19-03; www.visits-to-germany.com, www.germany-tourism.de, or www.cometogermany.com).
In the U.S. -- 122 E. 42nd St., 52nd Floor, New York, NY 10168-0072 (tel. 800/651-7010 or 212/661-7174).
In Canada -- 480 University Ave., Suite 1500, Toronto, ON M5G 1V2 (tel. 877/315-6237 or 416/968-1685).
In the U.K. -- P.O. Box 2695, London W1A 3TN (tel. 020/7317-0908).
Maps -- The tourist office of every major German town or city will give you a map of their town. Most of these are adequate unless you're seeking the most obscure of streets or lanes. If you're going on a road tour of German, you can purchase road maps at all gasoline stations and most major bookstores. In our experiences the most detailed and reliable of German road maps are published by either Falk Verlag or else the auto club, ADAC, by Shell.
