For those who aren't American, Williamsburg is a small town in Virginia that was the colony's capital before the Revolution.

Is there any place in Europe that could serve a similar role? Aachen might do, as the capital o fthe Carolignian Empire, but it's a bit too populous. Manching, maybe?

[1] Little known fact. In colonial America, it was not uncommon to find a gift shop at every royal govenor's mansion.
