Alongside the mesmerizing Mines of Rammelsberg, the Goslar Old Town is a UNESCO site with a range of spectacular attractions. Its blend of medieval, Renaissance and Gothic architecture tells the story of its intriguing historical periods. Learn about the rich history of this mining town through its impressive historic centre. One of the best ways to find out about Goslar’s past is through its churches. Admire the stunning frescos and ecclesiastical treasures in the Jakobikirche, which is recognisable by its 11th-century tower frontage. Inspect the marvellous Romanesque window cycle that portrays the doctor saints of the Market Church. Its fascinating façade has an uneven pair of towers. Climb to the top of the open-air northern tower for excellent views of the Goslar Old Town. Marvel at the medieval armour, weapons and torture implements that make up the Museum im Zwinger. It stands within a cylindrical battery tower. Climb to the roof terrace and snap photos of the historic centre’s charming skyline. Stroll through the surrounding park and lay down a blanket for a picnic by the Kahnteich lake. Expect fairly wet weather, with warm summers and mild winters. September is particularly pleasant and is the driest month. For the contemporary side of the town’s culture, browse the works at the Monks House Museum Goslar. Such is the historic nature of the old town district, that even this modern art gallery is housed in a half-timbered 16th-century building. Visit the iconic Imperial Palace complex for its array of buildings. Take a guided tour of the Kaiserhaus and the stunning palace gardens. The district occupies the heart of Goslar in the Lower Saxony region in central Germany. It is 1.5 miles (2.4 kilometres) north of the Mines of Rammelsberg, a journey that takes less than 10 minutes by car. Arrive at the Goslar Railway Station and walk southeast for 10 minutes to reach the historic centre. The Goslar Old Town offers a glimpse into Lower Saxony’s fascinating and diverse past. ![](https://forever.travel-assets.com/flex/flexmanager/images/2026/02/06/expedia-sale-2026-desktop-uk-fr-de.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1400&h=600&q=mediumHigh) ## The Annual Holiday Sale Members save up to 40% on hotels and holiday homes.
