New in town
Welcome to the World Heritage City of Quedlinburg. We are happy to have you as an international citizen in our city and with this section of our website provide you with information in English which you may find useful.
Quedlinburg, the former royal palace and member of the Hanseatic League, is a charming medieval town that is over 1000 years old. Situated on the northern edge of the Harz Mountains, it welcomes visitors with winding alleyways, ancient cobblestones and spacious squares surrounded by half-timbered houses.
The city is dominated by the massive sandstone rock with the monastery buildings and the Romanesque St Servatius Church. German history began here over 1,000 years ago.
