Discover the medieval town

Let a local expert show you the highlights of Goslar on a special tour of the town.

A good way to explore Goslar is by following one of the numerous tour guides. Find out everything about the history of Goslar, the Imperial Palace and all those well-preserved half-timbered houses and buildings.

You can immerse yourself even better into the history when your guide wears ancient costumes. Like 'Wilfried' a medieval monk on an eerie walk through the old town. While listening to his scary stories about witches and torture methods of the Middle Ages, you will get to know Goslar from a different perspective.

A highlight is the famous chimes in the gable of the house at market 6, which ring daily at 9 am, 12 noon, 3 pm and 6 pm. The wooden figures tell the history of mining in Goslar. – © Stefan Schiefer / GOSLAR marketing gmbh

Alternatively, you can follow a culinary tour where stories about drinking and eating habits of the Middle Ages are told. Why not try a rustic meal with an original dark-beer which is brewed in Goslar afterwards?

In Goslar you also have the opportunity to see the entire medieval old town from above. Climb the North Tower of the Marktkirche and enjoy the 360 degree panorama.
