Nordhausen am Harz

The economic and cultural centre of northern Thuringia, Nordhausen am Harz can look back on more than a thousand years of history. One of the many historic buildings is the Old Town Hall in Renaissance style. The "Roland" is enthroned here: a famous statue made of red plaster. The theatre, meanwhile, shines in neoclassical style. You can see how high-proof specialities are made at the Echte Nordhäuser traditional distillery.
