The picturesque old town and the historic market place with its richly decorated half-timbered houses invite you to linger. Some of the graceful half-timbered houses at the flower-decorated market square and at the entrance to the old town offer comfortable accommodation. Here the guest can touch the past. The entrance to the old town and the market square are the backdrop for all kinds of market activities.
