Activity itinerary

Herzogschloss Celle (Pass by)

The dukes' moated stronghold at the heart of Celle. Admire the Renaissance castle and one of Europe's oldest court theatres as you begin your walk.

Bomann Museum (Pass by)

Lower Saxony's storey under one roof, built in 1903-1907 as an eclectic showcase of local folk history. Step inside to see a full 1571 farmhouse reconstructed within its walls.

Stechinelli-Haus (Pass by)

A stately Neoclassical mansion on Grosser Plan, forever named for 'Stechinelli' - a duke's Italian valet turned wealthy postmaster known at court for his famously spindly legs.

Hoppener Haus (Pass by)

The most carved facade in town: six overhanging timber levels covered in painted mythological figures and planetary gods, built in 1532 for a ducal scribe.

Kalandgasse (Pass by)

A small iron horseshoe set in the cobblestones marks where Duke Otto the Magnanimous fell fatally jousting in 1471. Local lore says a secret wish made here comes true in ten years.

Evangelisch-lutherische Stadtkirche St. Marien Celle (Pass by)

The 74.5-metre white tower anchoring the Markt, where a town trumpeter still climbs 235 steps each afternoon to sound a fanfare in all four directions.

Stechbahn (Pass by)

The lively market square at Celle's heart, trading continuously since 1292 and home to the Ratskeller, one of Lower Saxony's oldest taverns.

Das Alte Rathaus (Pass by)

Celle's Renaissance-gabled Old Town Hall, its walls covered in painted trompe-l'oeil stonework rediscovered under thirteen layers of paint during 1980s restoration.

Altestdatiertes Haus Celles (Pass by)

The oldest dated house in town, its 1526 timber frame inscription still visible above a threshold that has outlasted five centuries of ducal rule.
