The cathedral in the city center is really worth a visit. Especially if you take the time and visit it from the inside.

At the corner building Sternstraße 1 is the "Lyric box" by Marie Winkel. Since 1995 she has been publishing a new poem here every 8 weeks.

All poems to read, but also the background to the "lyric box" you can find on lyrikkasten.de. I think it's nice to find something unexpected, which in turn makes you think.
