Göttingen (Gottingen) is a student city located in Lower Saxony, Germany, where the number of students exceeds 30,000.
The city has a population of more than 130,000, and almost every building in the city is more or less connected precisely with the university. It is unusual for a city of this size to be such a significant university center. It is worth mentioning that more than 30 people who graduated from or conducted research at this university have been awarded a Nobel Prize!
Getting off at our stop located at the ZOB, am HBF - Berliner Str. 28, we find ourselves in the very center of the city. Start your sightseeing from the old town, surrounded by medieval ramparts. In the very center, under the building of the town hall, we will find a fountain with a statue of the famous Goose Woman, whom, according to tradition, each of the newly graduated doctors must kiss on the cheek. The passage will be made more pleasant by the omnipresent sight of beautiful architecture and half-timbered buildings. From here it's just a few steps to Wilhelmplatz, where there used to be a detention center for students who participated in duels, smoked tobacco or got drunk. Unfortunately, over time it became a tradition for any self-respecting student to end up in the detention center and experience the adventure associated with it. Nowadays, the detention center is open to the public, and the square itself is a very popular place among students, where they meet to drink beer, sing, dance and have fun together. In addition to the picturesque architecture in the city, you will find more than 300 marble plaques commemorating Göttingen's most prominent scholars, and located in very different places in the city. The city also offers plenty of restaurants and pubs, as well as several museums and a botanical garden.
Göttingen is an ideal place to relax and recharge your batteries, just let yourself be carried away by the peaceful rhythm of the city. Come aboard our buses!
