GOSLAR
The former Free Imperial Town of Goslar has more than 1000 years of history. In the 11th century the Saxon and Salic emperors established their largest and most secure palatinate here, probably because of the discovery of silver and copper ore. For centuries, the city has been the favoured seat of government in northern Germany and, at the same time, a centre of Christianity. The spires of churches, chapels and monasteries dominate the town�s unique skyline. It is often referred to as the Rome of the North. Nowadays, the view of the townscape with its large parish churches is still an impressive sight. The romantic crooked, narrow cobble-stoned streets in the Old Town are an adventure of their own. Here each house tells its own story and many secret nooks and crannies wait to be discovered. And at the foot of the Imperial Palace (Kaiserpfalz) the impressive Romanesque Imperial Palace opens up in view of the entire city. Beyond this naturally scenic background rises the 600-metre-high Rammelsberg Mountain. The ore mines here were closed down as recently as 1988 and since 1992, the mines, together with the Old Town of Goslar, are listed among the World Cultural and Natural Heritage sites of UNESCO.
