Activity itinerary

Monument to Ernest Augustus

  • 10m
The bustling forecourt of Hannover's main station, crowned by a proud bronze king riding high on his horse. This grand equestrian monument is the city's most beloved rendezvous, affectionately nicknamed 'Unterm Schwanz'.

Kropcke-Passage

  • 10m
The bustling five-way crossroads at the very heart of Hannover, crowned by its beloved landmark clock. For well over a century it has been the city's favourite place to meet.

State Opera of Hannover

  • 10m
A stately classicist temple to music rising over Opernplatz, its columned facade one of the most elegant survivors of Hanover's royal age. Behind its grand portico lies one of Germany's most important stages.

Marktkirche

  • 10m
The towering brick heart of Hannover's rebuilt old town, its blunt spire climbing close to ninety seven metres into the sky. Rebuilt from wartime ruins, the Market Church guards a medieval altar and the largest bell in all of Lower Saxony.

Altes Rathaus

  • 10m
Hanover's oldest secular building, a jewel of glowing red brick Gothic standing shoulder to shoulder with the Marktkirche on the market square. Its elaborate stepped gables and terracotta trim have survived fire, war, and centuries of civic drama.

Leineschloss (Landtag Niedersachsen)

  • 10m
A stately classicist palace on the banks of the Leine, once the residence of Hanover's kings and now the seat of the Lower Saxon state parliament. Its columned portico looks out over the water like a temple to power.

The New Town Hall

  • 10m
A monumental, palace-like city hall crowned by a vast green dome, famous for the curved lift that leans as it climbs to the panorama platform. Despite its castle looks it opened in 1913, and it rests on a hidden forest of thousands of beech piles driven into the swampy ground.

Maschsee

  • 10m
A shimmering artificial lake stretching almost two and a half kilometres south of the city centre, and Hannover's favourite spot for sailing, strolling and summer festivals. Beneath its cheerful surface lies a far darker storey of hand-dug labour during the Nazi era.
