Witzenhausen

Take the trip to Witzenhausen, east of Kassel. It is the smallest university town in Germany. There are beautiful and well-maintained half-timbered houses, just try to take the trip past the old brewery, which stands well-preserved and strunk and offers guests, among other things, cherry beer. Witzenhausen is located in the Werratal, one of the largest cherry regions in Germany. The cherries are harvested around mid-July and just afterwards the famous 'Old Town Festival' is held, which is not a quiet event and certainly worth a visit if the weather is good.
