A very beautiful view

On October 25, 1863, the current church was consecrated in the presence of George V, King of Hanover. At 48 meters long and 21 meters wide, it is an opulent structure for the size of the city. With seating in the side aisles, it can seat approximately 880 people. In recent years, the roof and facade renovation began with funds from urban development subsidies, Lotto-Toto GmbH, and numerous donations. The 43-meter-high church tower is visible from afar and was renovated by the city, which owns the tower, in 1999. Its foundations are all that remains of the previous church. Since 1865, it has housed three cast steel bells tuned to F-sharp/A-sharp/C-sharp. The large bell measures 46 inches in diameter and weighs 775 kg. In memory of the founder's father, Pastor Osenbrück, who died after the town fire, it bears an inscription with the verse from Psalm 3: "I cry out to the Lord with my voice." The middle bell rings out over the town every day at 6 p.m. Since 1866, the Furtwängler clock has been keeping precise time, and the two gongs chime the quarter and hour.

The swans are here

Great route with nice climb

A quiet road with a good surface. Beautiful views toward the Brocken and Wurmberg mountains. More beautiful than the busy alternatives.

The bike path is wide and clean. It's a pleasant ride, and there's plenty of room for oncoming traffic.

In the 16th century, the Dukes of Brunswick had Paul Francke expand the castle complex into a magnificent four-winged palace complex in the Renaissance style. For a good 100 years until 1659, the palace served as a summer residence for the princes of Wolfenbüttel and as a widow's residence for three duchesses. Duke Julius, who lived at Hessen Castle for several years as crown prince, and his son Heinrich Julius, born here in 1564, ensured that the palace was furnished in a princely, representative manner. Under Duke Heinrich Julius, who was also Bishop of Halberstadt and Rector of the University of Helmstedt, Hessen Castle developed into a cultural center of the region. This duke, who also introduced the Reformation to Halberstadt Cathedral in 1591, was considered the most learned prince of his time. The Renaissance garden, laid out by the botanist and princely gardener Johann Royer from 1607 to 1655 with generous support from the Duchesses Elisabeth and Anna Sophie, became famous. This is how one of the most important pleasure gardens in the Mannerist style was created, the appearance of which is preserved in a copperplate engraving by Merian. Together with the adjacent botanical garden, the plant collection with over 1,700 species and varieties overshadowed even royal gardens such as those in Copenhagen and Oxford. Source: Display board
