Historic Germany

Routes, museums, entities and regions that showcase the Ages of Germany. From pre-history, its time as part of the Roman Empire, the Medieval Era and up to and including contemporary history.

Chocolate Museum in Cologne, Germany star
Cologne´s Imhoff-Schokoladenmuseum, the world´s largest and most comprehensive chocolate museum. A futuristic building, designed as a boat moored alongside the River Rhine, it is an inter-active museum where you can visit a mini sub-tropical forest with cocoa plants, learn about chocolate history, and watch as a chocolate bar begins life as cocoa beans and ends up ground, processed, molded and wrapped in silver foil.

Germany's Prehistoric Solar Observatory star
Solstice was celebrated as an important seasonal midpoint by the pre-history agricultural civilization which created Germany's Goseck Circle. And from Christmas, Hanukkah and Kwanzaa to Midsummer and Litha, festivities of many faiths and cultures are still held near winter and summer solstices.

Germany's Romantic Road star
It is a spectacular journey into a world from the past, through picturesque scenery and historic medieval towns Germany’s "Romantische Strasse", the Romantic Road, showcases culture in all its forms, from art and architecture to food and wine.

Germany's Ruhr Valley - The Ruhr Metropolis star
Germany's rejuvenated Ruhr Valley has an industrial history that reaches back 750 years, and a revitalized metropolis of 53 towns and cities which has been a "European Capital of Culture". A tribute honoring the way the entire region emphasizes European cultures, and the links connecting them.

The Dutch Quarter, Potsdam, Germany star
