Schones WEIMAR

Schones WEIMAR
Thanks to Sylvia for the nice card sent March 2021.
     A residential city in the center of Europe where ideas and works of art were born that have spread throughout the world. Today the famous names of the past still resound: Goethe and Schiller. Bach and Liszt. Modernity and the Bauhaus. Wide open spaces, open squares and narrow streets, the houses of Goethe and Schiller, museums and castles - the history of European culture concentrated in a very small area and honored by UNESCO with a World Heritage Site.

    However, Weimar remains true to its identity today. Vibrant, dynamic and internationally oriented - visitors discover art and culture, music and history, light music and young creativity with enthusiasm. Alongside all the splendors of the city of culture, places of remembrance remind us of the dark times in Weimar's history. The Ettersberg memorial is dedicated to presenting the atrocities of the Buchenwald concentration camp and the depths of social exclusion and violence.
