Hanover was a small village of ferrymen and fishermen that became a comparatively large town in the 13th century and received town privileges in 1241 because of its position at a natural crossroads. As overland travel was relatively difficult, its position on the upper navigable reaches of the river helped it grow from increasing trade.

The pride of Hanover is a chain of gardens from the days of the Imperial Electors and Kings of Hanover. The show-stopper is the Great Garden, in a Baroque French style laid out by Electress Sophia of Hanover in the 17th century. The 50-hectare garden is fronted by a palace and enriched with sculptures, fountains, a box-hedge maze, an orangery and d...
Another of the Herrenhäuser Gardens, the Berggarten (Mountain Garden) warrants a separate entry in the list. It was started as a herb and kitchen garden for the palace, but Electress Sophia picked the Berggarten as a space to grow exotic plants. An early greenhouse was built in the park in 1686 supporting crops like tobacco and mulberry trees. Nowa...
In the 1810s King George III bought an estate to the east of the Great Garden. The property’s name was changed from the Wallmodenschloss to the Georgenpalais, and the park was renamed Georgengarten. On a long, slender plot the gardens are in the English style with rambling lawns and groves of mature trees. Running straight through the park from end...
With four very different departments exhibiting fine arts, archaeology, natural history and ethnology, you could say that this museum has a bit of everything. The Renaissance and Baroque galleries are bolstered by names like Albrecht Dürer, Rubens and Rembrandt, but also a fine collection of 19th-century art by Romantics like Caspar David Friedrich...
Displaying a real who’s who of modern art in Germany, the Sprengel Museum is a cultural attraction that needs to be on your agenda. The museum was founded in 1979 a decade after the chocolate manufacturer Bernhard Sprengel donated his modern art collection to the city. This has been bolstered by Lower Saxony’s own art collections and subsequent pri...
Hanover’s resplendent New Town Hall was built at the start of the 20th in a theatrical Historicist style. With its soaring dome reaching, towers and location in front of the Maschteich pond, the New Town Hall looks more like a palace than a civic building. Large parts of the interior are open to the public for tours. Under the dome are four scale m...
On Marktplatz the Old Town Hall is Hanover’s oldest secular building, first taking shape at the start of the 15th century. This monument, unmistakeable for its elaborate gables, is also the southernmost example of the Northern German Brick Gothic style. The earliest section is on the east side, on Schmiedestraße, while the west side, on Köbelinger ...
The 78-hectare, man-made lake near New Town Hall was a product of the Great Depression. Hanover had long suffered from spring floods, and as a means to ease both flooding and the mass unemployment of the period the city began work on a lake in the floodplain of the River Leine in 1934. An interesting piece of trivia about the lake is that it loses ...
Hanover’s silhouette wouldn’t be the same without the 14th-century Marktkirche in the centre of the Altstadt. The distinguishing feature is the tower and its four pointed gables. The story goes that the tower was supposed to be taller, but in the 1360s money ran low because of the Black Death and so a steeple was simply added to the what had alread...
The easternmost of Hanover’s old town churches has a history going back to 1163, but was struck by bombs in the war. The nave and chancel have been left in their roofless, damaged state as a memorial for victims of wars and violence. The current layout is from the 14th century in the Gothic style, while the tower, which is completely intact was giv...
