We headed over to Goslar after learning of a celebration that was going on with live entertainment. Goslar is a town in Germany's Harz Mountains. It's known for its medieval old town and half-timbered houses. Market Church St. Cosmas and Damian features 13th-century stained-glass windows. The 11th-century Imperial Palace has historic murals. South, Rammelsberg Mountain is home to silver and copper mines more than 1,000 years old. There is also a museum preserves underground waterwheels and a mine railway, which we will check to next time we visit the town. Just like Bad Hazburg the town is quite intimate, the shops and restaurants are situated in one central location, there are several very good restaurants and pubs in town, the shops are very unique and worth checking out. There is a very large and entertaining clock in the middle of town, it beats the typical "cuckoo cuckoo clock" any day. Although the architecture itself is enough of a reason to venture through even the residential area of town, there are many things to see when visiting Goslar. This is a great town with a lot to offer, you won't be disappointed you stopped in for a visit. Cheers! read more
