    The historic town hall in Witzenhausen was built in 1590 on the site of a previous building erected in 1479. The three-story Renaissance building was built according to the designs of the Allendorf master builder Hans Wetzel.
    In 1819, the striking town hall fell victim to a fire in the city, but was then rebuilt. The building also has a tower with an integrated carillon. The city administration is housed in its premises to this day.

        Witzenhausen is known as the cherry city. Rightly so:
        The area around Witzenhausen is considered the largest closed cherry growing area in Europe.
        The cherry has a tradition here and every July the “Kesperkirmes” is celebrated and a cherry queen is crowned.
