Wernigerode - a colorful city in Harz

“The colorful city in Harz” called Wernigerode poet Hermann Löns more than a century
That one back. Now Wernigerode has become even more colorful and beautiful. The resort city in the Harz National Park is cozy located in the valleys of two rivers not far from the legends of Mount Broken and today attracts millions of tourists with its unique appearance. High above the city rose the castle of counts and princes Stolberg-Vernigerode. Over many centuries of glorious history, it turned from an impregnable fortress into a luxurious residence worthy of receiving emperors. In this city and castle, Mark Zakharov shot scenes for the film "That Munchausen." From the terrace of the castle there is a beautiful view of the city and the mountains of Khartsa. The beautiful town hall and half-timbered houses create a unique romantic atmosphere of the ancient city.
