Prinz-Albrecht-Park

It is the best-known landmark in the city of Brunswick. It stands on the Burgplatz square in front of Dankwarderode Castle and Brunswick Cathedral. Within Brunswick it is thus commonly known as the "castle lion" (Burglöwe), giving the city its moniker Lion City (Die Löwenstadt). It was built by Henry the Lion in 1166, and was by a replica in 1980 due to damages to the original caused by air pollution. The original can be found inside Dankwarderode Castle.

Built in the 12th century as the palace of Henry the Lion, this neo-Romanesque castle houses the medieval collection of the Herzog Anton Ulrich Museum. Highlights include the lavishly restored Knights' Hall and the original bronze Brunswick Lion in the basement museum.

It was rebuilt in 2007 after having been bombed out in World War II and torn down in the years to follow. Now merely the façade of the former castle with a shopping mall on the inside. The quadriga Brunonia (the allegorical deity of the old duchy, the free state, and the city of Brunsick) is by far Germany's largest (making it de facto the largest in the world). It is possible to climb to the top of the Schloss and see the statue from up close) The building also hosts the Braunschweig public library. Two equestrian statues are placed in front of the castle, one featuring Duke Karl II. Wilhelm Ferdinand of Braunschweig-Wolfenbüttel, founder of the Braunschweig Technical University, under whose reign Braunschweig for a brief period of time turned into the German centre of Enlightenment, and Duke Friedrich Wilhelm von Braunschweig-Wolfenbüttel, one of the most renowned German military leaders during the Napoleonic Wars.

It is a historical building in which German author Wilhelm Raabe lived from 1901 until his death in 1910. The house now functions as a museum, centre for literature and research, and venue for literary events.

A historic district often referred to by locals as the "Gurke" (gherkin or cucumber). Documented as a center of prostitution as early as 1594, it is considered one of the oldest such districts in Germany. The area is closed to the public and off-limits to minors, but the well-preserved medieval timber-framed houses can be viewed from outside the gates.
