This very beautiful historic fountain is located on the market square directly in front of the Wernigerode town hall. A very popular photo motif and beautifully decorated in winter and nicely integrated into the Christmas market.

An impressive castle, but still under construction. The old town still has many beautiful half-timbered houses and alleyways.
