Over 300 half-timbered buildings have been preserved in the old town of Melsungen. Particularly beautiful medieval old town with historic half-timbered streets. A tour is reminiscent of the city's economic prosperity in the Middle Ages.

Distance to the German Unity cycle path: around 100 metres. Accessible at any time.

The historic town hall of Melsungen was built in the 1560s. It replaced a previous building, which was destroyed in 1554 by a major fire. Larger conversions took place in the 19th century, in the 1920s, finally, the roof rider was moved to its current position in the middle of the roof and the Bartenwetzer used as a landmark Melsungens.
