Founded in the 9th century, the city of Hildesheim is still hometoculturalassetsofuniversalsignificance.Withthehistoric market square and its famous “Knochenhauer-Amtshaus”, a former butchers‘ guildhouse reputed to bethefinesthalf-timberedbuilding in theworld,visitorsaretransported back into earlier centuries and the impressive half-timbered houses of earlier times. Thanks to the initia-tive of Hildesheim’s inhabitants but also due to generous donations, it was reconstructed to its original form between 1984 and 1990. Still to be admired in their original form, are the half-timbered houses in the quarter surrounding theNeustädterMarket. Thisquarteronceused toboastabout1,900 beautiful houses, and to this very day, thanks to the remaining original streets, it is still possible to imagine the beauty these houses must have had.

This region’s numerous churches and abbeys also bear wit-ness to its rich and varied history. Guided group tours are conducted inmany of its places of worship. In addition,

apart from the sacred buildings, the castles and fortresses dotting theHildesheim regionprovideauniquelydistinc-tiveprofileaswell,andtheMarienburgcastleisalsoquitefamous as one of the most important neo-gothic architec-tural monuments in Germany.
