Town and Cityscapes - Big City Flair

What do the biggest cities in Niedersachsen have in common? The blazing red brick houses? The lovingly well-kept city centres? Or is it the hectic pace of life that you would expect in a big city? More important than the similarities are the different temperaments of the cities, which you can rediscover in different ways over and over again.

Hannover - the charming city in a leafy setting

Where – if not in Hannover – are visitors offered so many diverse and attractive adventure worlds: the Eilenriede city forest, Lake Maschsee and the Hannover Adventure-Zoo show the city from its green side and promise its guests pure relaxation. The tourist jewel of the city is the Royal Gardens of Herrenhausen.

Braunschweig - science, culture and quality of life

What the bear is for Berlin, is the lion for the people of Braunschweig. Very few people are as defining for Braunschweig’s history as the Lion - the mighty Guelph, who made Braunschweig his city of residence in the mid-12th century.

Osnabrück - the city of peace

… for this is where the Peace of Westphalia was signed in 1648, which ended the Thirty Years War. It is also the birthplace and memorial place of the writer Erich Maria Remarque, and also where star architect Daniel Libeskind realised his first building.

Wolfsburg - Delight in Discovering

"Delight in discovering" – mobility, tradition and modernity in one of the youngest European cities invite you to a sensory experience. Art and culture, sport, shopping and relaxation – Wolfsburg is a city full of intensive impressions and offers a variety of possibilities for a short break, stopover and edutainment.

Göttingen - the city of knowledge

Göttingen – a university city with tradition, charm and quality of life, these are words that can be used to describe the centre of the south of Niedersachsen.
