Known as the “Colourful Town in the Harz Mountains” Wernigerode feels like stepping into a fairytale!

Its historic old town is filled with colourful half-timbered houses, cobblestone streets, and beautiful architecture that takes you back in time.

Two of its most fascinating landmarks are the Schiefe Haus (Crooked House), a former mill that leans noticeably due to centuries of water erosion, and the Kleinste Haus (Smallest House), a tiny historic building just about 2.95 metres wide!

The town is also a gateway to the Harz Mountains, famous for their forests, hiking trails, and historic steam trains that travel towards the Brocken, northern Germany’s highest peak.
