Quedlinburg - Der Stadtführer

Learn more - experience more - discover culture in Quedlinburg, which has been listed as one of the largest area monuments on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 1994. The impressive castle and collegiate church with its cathedral treasure, as well as the Wipertikirche, still remind us today of its former significance as a power center of the German Empire. Below the castle hill, the old town stretches out with its medieval layout and original street pattern. Over 1,200 half-timbered houses from six centuries showcase the architectural diversity of this building style and delight with intricately carved, often colorful facades. Author Wolfgang Hoffmann takes readers on three clearly organized discovery tours, vividly bringing to life the experiences of medieval streets and providing detailed descriptions of the sights in this World Heritage city. Over 70 color photos illustrate the texts and inspire exploration.
