Accessibility Statement

The city of Rothenburg ob der Tauber strives to make its websites and mobile applications barrier-free accessible in accordance with the Bavarian E-Government Ordinance (BayEGovV).

This accessibility statement applies to https://www.rothenburg.de.

State of compliance with the requirements

Due to the following incompatibilities, this website is partially compatible with the BayEGovV.

Non-accessible content

The content listed below is not yet accessible:

  • There may be color combinations in which contrasts do not fully meet the requirements.
  • Form fields that relate to the users themselves do not convey the purpose of the respective field via an autocomplete attribute.
  • Some forms use captchas to protect against spam, which cannot be read in a barrier-free manner.
  • After submitting a form, the focus is not automatically placed on the confirmation message, so it is not clear whether the submission was successful.
  • The W3C HTML validator's check result shows errors in the HTML syntax, so screen readers may have problems handling the page.
  • The digital local map can only be used to a limited extent. Cartography is essentially a pictorial representation, which therefore cannot meet all of BITV's requirements. However, the aim is to improve the keyboard controls.
  • The individual browser settings regarding font size are not adopted in all areas of the website.
  • Quotes are not marked with the blockquote attribute.
