Trip Moments in Goslar
Goslar in Germany, historic city, base for hiking
“It's famous for its remarkably preserved medieval architecture, rich silver mining heritage, and over 1,000-year-old legacy as an influential residence for Holy Roman emperors.”
Goslar Royal Palace (Kaiserpfalz Goslar), located in the southern part of the Old Town of Goslar in Lower Saxony, Germany, is one of the most important medieval royal palaces in Germany and an important part of the Goslar World Heritage Site. Construction of the palace began in the 11th century. Due to the rich silver resources of the nearby Lamersberg mines, Goslar became an important city in the Holy Roman Empire, where emperors frequently conducted state affairs and held imperial assemblies. The most famous feature of the palace is the magnificent Emperor's Hall (Kaisersaal), decorated with large historical frescoes painted in the 19th century, depicting important historical events of the Holy Roman Empire. The St. Ulrich Court Church next to the palace and the surrounding buildings also embody the solemnity of medieval royal architecture. Today, Goslar Royal Palace, along with the well-preserved Old Town and the Lamersberg mines, constitutes a World Heritage Site, an important site for understanding German medieval history and the Holy Roman Empire.
