Tucked in the low hills of Lahn Valley, Wetzlar is a gem untouched by the passage of time. Half-timbered houses fill its tightly packed streets, and 13th- and 14th-century fortifications remain to join the medieval party. Tourists can find the famous Wetzlar Cathedral here along with Lottehaus, a family home turned museum that celebrates Goethe’s literature. Over the hill, you can appreciate the ancient Roman ruins of Burg Kalsmunt or simply take in the view of the charming city from above. If you want to take a journey back in time, this destination in the German state of Hesse is perfect for you. Planning to visit here soon?
