In Germany there are incredibly many great cities, so I limit the question to Lower Saxony, because I know myself best:

Lüneburg: Not in 2. World War destroyed interiors. In the Middle Ages, Lüneburg was a very rich Hanseatic city. The old town is built in North German brick Gothic. There are still 3 great churches from this time. The largest St. Lamberti had to be demolished by the salt extraction due to lowering of the underground and at St. Johannis the tower is already sloping. The most important attraction is the town hall, which is partly decorated in the original from the Middle Ages. The stint has the narrowest pub density throughout Germany and is very popular with younger people.

Hildesheim: The city was destroyed in war, but parts were rebuilt well. It is an important bishop’s seat and accordingly has many churches. The Michaeliskirche is the most important building there from the Romanesque and from that time still has the original bar ceiling. This was outsourced in a mine in the war and was saved by it. The dome has a thousand-year-old rosehion, which survived despite bomb hits and blurred in the rubble.

Goslar: Wundervolle Fachwerkaltstadt with Kaiserpfalz directly at the Harzrand and in the district Hahnenklee the only barwood church south Scandinavia from the 19th century Century. Very interesting is also the large Schaubergwerk.

Celle: Beautiful half-timbered town with impressive castle complex and there a small but fine castle theatre.

Bückeburg: Small town with really worth seeing castle. The Medieval spectacle is the most important in Lower Saxony.

Hameln: Small cozy half-timbered town, unfortunately lacking the city wall, otherwise the city would surely be flooded by tourists, while the city is so well visited.

In Lüneburg, I was short of HH with my wife, but it rained in streams. The other place I only know the name.

I was back in Hildesheim last summer after many years.

I had already seen the rebuilt bone heaper office building a long time ago, but that the entire marketplace with its historical façades is reconstructed (even if the buildings are new and modern behind it) surprised me.

Here is a picture of the website of the Sparkasse Hildesheim Goslar Peine: comment image

The Andreaskirche with the highest church tower in Lower Saxony is also worth mentioning.

Berlin, Leipzig and Hoyerswerda primarily, but there are also other beautiful corners in the old Länder.

Freiburg im Breisgau. I am there several times a year and I also know the region quite well.
