Old Town

The historic timber-framed buildings of the Old Town are among the most special sights of the city centre, as strolling through picturesque narrow streets disclose inviting cafés and restaurants as well as exclusive boutiques and cute little shops. While walking around will always make for a great atmosphere, Germany’s oldest flea market takes place at the banks of the Leine river every Saturday.

Do & See

Hannover boasts a selection of tourist attractions that – from unique sights and activities to relaxing gardens and square – attract numerous visitors throughout the whole year. During the day, you can sail on idyllic Lake Steinhude or ride through a picturesque heartland scenery on the back of a horse, and in the evening, big-city delights can be enjoyed at the opera, at a concert or aa variety show. While its museums cover subjects from history and art to literature and music, the architecture of both the city's centre and the outspread areas is a feast for the eyes that also happens – for both, in- and outside – at the State Opera and the State Theatre, which will try and succeed in alluding your taste.
