Quedlinburg Germany Magnet

Quedlinburg is home to over 1,300 half-timbered houses, making it one of the largest and best-preserved mediaeval and Renaissance towns in Europe. The town is dominated by the Castle Hill and the collegiate church of St. Servatius, which towers over the red roofs below. The narrow, winding streets are paved with uneven stones, leading to hidden courtyards and cosy tea rooms. Its historical significance as a residence of the Ottonian emperors gives the village a grand, regal air despite its modest, charming scale.
