Welcome to the fairytale in central Germany

As much as I do not like saying this, I must admit, that I had no idea that these fantastic places are in Central- and also partially former East-Germany! No, this is NOT the notorically known Rottenburg!!! These are small towns in the region called Harz. The name refers mainly to a mountain range and the surrounding area and the highest hill "Brocken" is the place where all the witches meet...

Welcome to the Fairytale...

I am a fairytale buff. I love history and a good story and medieval castels and small romantic towns just work for me. Check out the pictures and you will understand why...

If you plan to explore Germany this Summer, make sure that you plan your journey through Quedlinburng, Wernigerode and Goslar...

This is the amazing medieval Quedlinburg with its rather unique romanesque church and deliciously wonky houses...

 

This fantastic castle is in Wernigerode. Complete with dragons, fabulous view and rather eclectic collection...

Goslar, was once the city of Emperor Barbarosa and the bronz lion is a copy of the oldest bronz sculpture north of the Alps.

All tows are very well prepared for tourists and you can find the widest variety of cafes, restaurants and shops, including lots of hand-made and artistic goods. It is possible to visit all 3 in one day but the area is wonderful, so an overnight stay in one of these charming places must be also an unforgetable experience...

Spread the word and definitelly visit!!!
