Palaces and parks, museums and monuments - the list of Weimars sights is splendidly long. Here you find the overview and a short description of all of them. In addition we show you how to discover Weimar as its best.

Sights of Weimar

Weimar museums

To visit every museum in Weimar - you need a lot of time. In a city of 65.000 inhabitants we have more than 20 museums.

Buchenwald memorial

The infamous Nazi concentration camp known as Buchenwald existed between 1937 and 1945 on Ettersberg. More than 250,000 people from almost 50 nations were imprisoned there – and over 50,000 of them did not survive.

Castles

Small but great:  palaces, parks and gardens- to discover Weimar's past means discover German and European history and culture.

Parks and gardens

"Weimar is a park containing a town", a fitting way to describe the spectacular natural beauty that Weimar radiates.

Churches and cemetries

There are some historic churches and cemetries in Weimar. They are worth visiting for Goethe, Schiller, Maria Pavlovna, Cranach or many others.

Architecture, monuments, fountains

Theoretically, the impression of a city should be a mixture of decay and colorfulness. But the impression of Weimar is very complete and clear. It is true to every visitor that Weimar is a typical postcard city.
