Step by Step
This walking tour of Hannover will take you through centuries of history in a setting that combines medieval architecture with classical and modern buildings. You will start your walk at one of the city's most central locations: the Tourist Office, located on Ernst-August-Platz, directly opposite the main station.
Accompanied by a professional guide, you will discover places that tell stories from the Middle Ages, the post-war period and the contemporary development of Hannover. Among the highlights of the tour is the imposing New Town Hall, an architectural gem of the 20th century, where you can observe the historical patterns of the city under its dome.
Continue through the Old Town, with its charming half-timbered houses, cobbled streets and cosy squares, and learn about the reconstruction of the city after World War II. You will also visit the Staatsoper, a neoclassical building built by Georg Friedrich Laves, and the Aegidienkirche, a ruined church that today serves as a memorial to war victims.
This tour is ideal for those who wish to explore Hannover beyond its shopping centres and discover the historical and cultural depth of the city. With small groups, you will have the opportunity to ask questions and enjoy a more up-close and personalised experience.
