Experience Göttingen on a guided tour of the old town and find out what makes the city and its university so special. Along the way, you'll get to know important stages in the city's history and hear about famous people who lived and worked in Göttingen.

The tour starts at the station square, where one of the most unusual monuments in the city awaits you. From there, you'll head along the old city wall to one of the most impressive baroque buildings in Göttingen. Then you'll visit a place with an eventful past: first a monastery, then a school – and later the place where the university was to be founded.

After a short walk, you'll get a beautiful view of St. Johannis. Right behind it, you'll discover the Old Town Hall. On the market square in front of the town hall, you'll meet the most famous “resident” of Göttingen: the Gänseliesel, who's considered the most kissed woman in the world.

Continue past half-timbered houses to the university auditorium, before the tour ends with a view of the town hall and the German Theater. An ideal walk to get to know Göttingen in a compact, lively way and with lots of stories.
