Sport and Freizeitzentrum

This literature museum displays the collection put together in 1862 by the poet "Johan Ludwig Wilhelm Gleim" and is a must for fans of German Poetry and Literature

The cathedral was built 1236-1491 and is considered a jewel of Gothic architecture. The two mighty towers typify renaissance and baroque building skills. It had 2 predecessors: one was the 859 Carolingian structure and the other, the 922 Otto creation. The 600 Artefacts and treasures in the cathedral's collection make up the largest and most important collection of art from the middle ages in any German church. It was severely damaged in 1945 and was restored by Halberstadt architect Walter Bolze.

This little church has been playing a John Cage piece called Organ²/ASLSP (As SLow aS Possible) since 5 Sep 2001. The note played changes, on average, once every one to two years; the performance is reckoned to be both the slowest and longest duration of any piece of music in the world, with the concert scheduled to end on 5 Sep 2640. The next date when something "exciting" happens will be 5 Feb 2024.

Occupied as dwellings until 1916 these dwellings are unique within Germany. (Bring a torch.)
