Quedlinburg Old Town

Highlight • Historical Site

More than 2,000 picturesque half-timbered houses from eight centuries, modern art behind old walls, small romantic streets with cafés and restaurants, overlooked by the Romanesque collegiate church, which can be seen from afar. There are plenty of excursions on foot or by bike around Quedlinburg, so everyone gets their money's worth in every season.

Three-Arch Bridge (Quarmbeck Railway Bridge)

Highlight • Bridge

A no longer used bridge of a railway connection / branch line from Quedlinburg - Bad Suderode to Quarmbeck. When the Russians were still stationed there in GDR times, the supply as well as the arrival and removal of material, e.g. tanks, took place here.

(Many thanks to Herby53 (komoot.de/user/709644855195) for the information.)

Unfortunately, the bridge is smeared from front to back and now only functions as a crossing point for cyclists and hikers: From here, paths go in various directions and if you are in the region, you will pass here sooner or later.

If you can hear the Harz narrow-gauge railway in the distance, you can just go to the next field and see the railway pass in the background.

Easter Pond

Highlight • Lake

As early as the 15th century there was a small reservoir in the Ostergrund in the area of today's Osterteich. In connection with mining in the area, it served as a drive for a stamp mill for crushing minerals and metals. In 1669, today's Osterteich was created by building a dam in order to operate a stronger hammer mill. Work had begun in 1668 and was finally completed in 1671.

Collegiate church of St. Cyriakus (Harzer Wandernadel)

Highlight • Religious Site

Beautiful old church! The more than 1000-year-old collegiate church of St. Cyriakus is considered one of the most important Ottonian buildings and is one of the oldest churches in Northern Europe. A visit is always worthwhile - a donation is requested at the entrance. If you are on the Harzer Klosterweg, you will get a special stamp here.
