    Hiking

    Whether hiking or cycling, you cannot avoid this place in Jena.
    Named after Jena's only city gate that is still standing.
    You are after going through the Johannistor - basically in front of the old town.
    A small square - the Johannisplatz is the entrance / exit to Jena's pub mile: the Wagnergasse. Lively life, locals and guests enjoy themselves there.

    Beautiful small town with an interplay of old and new architectural styles that bring their own harmony, the city is highly recommended.

    Johannisplatz only received its final spatial structure in the early 19th century. It is essentially bordered by buildings from the Neoclassical and Historicist periods.

    Over the past 20 years, Johannisplatz and the adjacent Wagnergasse to the west have developed a uniquely charming "Kneipenmeile" (pub mile).
