The colorful city on the Harz awaits you.
Enchanting half-timbered houses and romantic little alleyways. An old town straight out of a fairy tale awaits you in Wernigerode. Hermann Löns gave the town in the middle of Germany the nickname of the "colorful town on the Harz" and it has long been well-known far beyond its borders among those seeking relaxation, romantics, nature lovers and those interested in culture. The Harz offers something for every taste.
Magnificent half-timbered houses, the oldest dating back to 1400, surround the town hall on the historic market square, a gem of medieval architecture. Wernigerode Castle towers high above the town and offers a magnificent view over the Harz landscape as far as the Brocken. The Harzer Kultur- & Kongresshotel is located in the middle of this beautiful old town, just 250m from the market square.
3 x UNESCO World Heritage Sites with the towns of Hildesheim and Quedlinburg and the Rammelsberg in Goslar await your visit.
