5 days in Kassel Itinerary

Despite suffering total devastation from bombing raids and house-to-house combat during the Second World War, Kassel today has been revitalized as a city of high education, high culture, and the arts.

Your day-by-day itinerary now includes Hercules Monument. Explore Kassel's surroundings by going to Wartburg Castle (in Eisenach), Kramerbrucke Erfurt (in Erfurt) and Winterberg (Skiliftkarussell Winterberg & Snow World). There's much more to do: test your problem-solving skills at popular escape rooms, stroll around Bergpark, take in the dramatic scenery at Steinhofer Wasserfall, and pause for some serene contemplation at Christuskirche.
