Sights - the centrepiece of every city trip
Sightseeing is one of the most important reasons for visiting a new city. Hanover is no different. The state capital of Lower Saxony impresses with a varied backdrop of culture, history and modern urban development - a combination that appeals to both day visitors and long-term visitors. Anyone looking for authentic impressions and a great experience will not be disappointed in Hanover.
Between half-timbered and modern - what makes Hanover special
In no other major city in northern Germany do so many contrasts come together in one place as in Hanover. The clear urban structure, interspersed with extensive green spaces, creates space for discoveries and leisurely strolls. Those interested in sightseeing will not only discover architectural masterpieces, but also witnesses to historical epochs and examples of contemporary art in public spaces.
Many highlights are easily accessible on foot or by bike. This makes it particularly easy to get an impression on your own - ideal for anyone travelling individually. Those who prefer a more compact route can use the "Red Thread" - an intuitive route through the city centre that leads to the most important points.
