Publisher's Synopsis
Weimer is linked with great names and events that are significant for both German and European cultural history. Goethe, Schiller, Nietzsche and the Bauhaus artists all influenced the "spirit of Weimar" in their own ways. This book takes the reader to 23 places that bring to life the city's diverse cultural and historical aspects. With views of houses and monuments, such as Goethe's Roman house and the Bauhaus estate Am Horn 61, the guide reminds us of past depths and highlights the 1999 European Cultural City's history.
