HOLIDAY MAGAZINE HILDEsHEIM 2012 | Welcome
WELCOME TO HILDESHEIM
exploring the region of Hildesheim
Welcome to the region of Hildesheim – a place that impressively combines nature with the city experience. Idyllic parks, forests and
lakes invite you to explore, while the wide-ranging offer of cultural events leave no time for boredom. Experience Hildesheim’s
great diversity. Put together your own individual programme just the way you like it – to include visiting the UNESCO World Heritage
sites and finding out more about the local history and culture as well as enjoying the natural surroundings and recreational activities.
Located just 30 kilometres from the state capital of Hannover, Hildesheim is nestled in between the lowlands of the Hildesheim “Börde”,
the Leine and Innerste River valleys and the Leine hill country leading into the foothills of the Harz Mountains.
The centre of the region, the city of Hildesheim with its population
of just over 100,000, was originally founded as a bishopric in the
year 815. After that, it was Bishops Bernward and Godehard in particular
who played an integral role in shaping the development of
the city. Today, Hildesheim is a modern, vibrant city with so much
to offer – from the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage sites, to Egyptian
exhibits of world renown, historical half-timbered buildings,
a colourful cultural scene and attractive shopping opportunities.
And everywhere you go, you get a sense of the rich history that
has made this city. But Hildesheim has more to offer than just culture
– a true city experience is combined with the beauty of nature.
Parks, gardens, the green fortification walls around the city
and lakes encourage visitors and local people alike to go and enjoy
the great outdoors.
The surrounding region also has a lot to offer in terms of holiday
and recreational activities. Hikers and walkers will find exactly what
they’re looking for in the region of Hildesheim – enjoyable walks
through the Leine hill country or along the medieval King’s Route

are very popular, not only with insiders. Interesting places and historic
towns with half-timbered buildings can also be explored by bicycle,
where you’ll find impressive architecture and a variety of different
landscapes – you’re guaranteed to find great diversity in the
region of Hildesheim. Underway on the Leine-Heide bicycle route,
you can, for example, stop off at Marienburg Castle to take a look
at how the royals lived in the 19th century or pay a visit to the Fagus
Factory, an exceptional example of modern architecture; it was
added to the UNESCO list of World Cultural Heritage in 2011. Bad
Welcome | HOLIDAY MAGAZINE HILDEsHEIM 2012
Salzdetfurth, a lovely little spa town nearby, focuses primarily on
health and relaxation. Salt water and mud provide the traditional
basis for therapeutic spa treatments in the “TherapieZentrum der
Naturheilmittel” (Natural Remedies Therapy Centre). But the town
also has an active, dynamic and vibrant side: some 10,000 visitors
and 1,000 active cyclists flock to the races of the international mountain-bike
elite in Bad Salzdetfurth each year.
Find out more about the many different faces of the region of
Hildesheim – we look forward to seeing you here!

HOLIDAY MAGAZINE HILDESHEIM 2012 | uNeSCO World Heritage
ONE-OF-A-KIND WORLD HERITAGE
St. Mary’s Cathedral, St. Michael’s Church and the Fagus Factory
Evidence of past cultures, artistic masterpieces and unique natural landscapes, whose destruction would be an immeasurable loss
for all of mankind – the UNESCO list of World Heritage includes more than 900 natural and cultural landmarks around the world.
Not just one, but three of these world heritage treasures can be found in the region of Hildesheim.
UNESCO World Heritage can now also be admired in Alfeld – in
June 2011, the Fagus Factory was the first modern industrial building
to be added to the list of World Cultural and Natural Heritage.
The Fagus-GreCon GmbH building was designed by Walter Gropius,
the founder of the Bauhaus School – it was the first large building
to be built by this well-known architect. When company founder
Carl Benscheidt commissioned the 30-year-old Gropius to design
his new factory for shoe lasts in 1911, it clearly showed what incredible
courage Benscheidt had. With his confidence in Gropius’ modern
interpretation of architecture, he proved his good instincts – in
retrospect, the factory can be considered as the manifestation of the
“new objectivity”. Using a design made of glass and steel and pillarless,
completely glassed-in corners, which became the trademark of
the new architecture, Gropius gave the three-storey clad building a
i

FAGuS-WERK IN ALFELD
type of weightless elegance. It was a very unusual design for factory
buildings at that time. With his first debut building, Gropius created
a new style, thus smoothing the path for modern architecture.
The name of the factory was derived from the Latin word “fagus”
for beech or beech wood, the material used in the factory designed
by Gropius to manufacture shoe lasts into the 1970s. The factory
is still in use today – in addition to shoe lasts, the Fagus Factory is
now also involved in woodworking and engineering. As a project
for the “Expo 2000”, the Fagus Factory was renovated and restored
and now also houses a very impressive exhibition. On 3,000 m 2 (approx.
32,000 ft 2 ), the exhibition is devoted to the building and the
company’s history, the shoe fashions of the last century, the people
at Fagus, solid woodworking and the forest as a habitat. The exhibition
is open to the public daily. There is also a signed path for visitors
so that they can tour the entire factory grounds. On request,
groups can take part in tours that also take them into the actual
production halls.

The bishopric is proud to be home to not just one,but two World Cultural
Heritage churches: St. Michael’s Church and St. Mary’s Cathedral
were both added to the list of World Cultural Heritage in 1985.
St. Michael’s Church is considered as one of the most beautiful examples
of early Romanesque church architecture in Germany. Under
the direction of Bishop Bernward, construction began in 1010,
with St. Michael’s Church built as a Benedictine monastery church.
The church was finally completed in 1033. Today, what’s perhaps
most fascinating in the interior of the church is the monumental
ceiling painting dating from the 13th century. The ceiling of the central
nave is made up of 1,300 oak panels and depicts the lineage of
Christ. What convinced the UNESCO committee in Hildesheim’s St.
Mary’s Cathedral were the bronze castings, Christ’s pillar and Bernward’s
door, all unique achievements of Bishop Bernward, and the
Cathedral Treasury. Taken together, St. Michael’s Church, St. Mary’s
Cathedral and the Cathedral Treasury provide unique insight into
the design and decoration of Romanesque church buildings.
Up until the bishopric’s anniversary celebrations in 2015, St. Mary’s
Cathedral is being extensively renovated to the tune of approx. 30
million euros and the neighbouring St. Antonius Church converted
into the Cathedral Museum. Both will remain closed until August
2014. Some of the art treasures from St. Mary’s Cathedral, which
are among the most impressive church treasures in all of Europe,
can still be seen in Hildesheim during the renovations. Bernward’s
door is impressively on display in the Roemer- und-Pelizaeus-Museum.

HOLIDAY MAGAZINE HILDESHEIM 2012 | Immerse yourself in history
IMMERSE YOuRSELF IN HISTORY
History comes alive in Hildesheim
Hildesheim – the young city with an old history. Many of its buildings are unmistakable evidence of the interesting history of the
city. Such oddities as the “Upended Sugarloaf” and impressive half-timbered buildings such as the “Wernersche House” in the historic
half-timbered district visualise what life was like many hundreds of years ago. The many churches in the city remind us of the significance
of Christian values in Hildesheim.
ODDITY – THE upENDED SuGARLOAF
Just a few metres away from the market square, you’ll also find the “Upended Sugarloaf”, a building
that was also reconstructed according to original plans and was completed in 2010. Its name is odd,
and its looks not less so: the half-timbered building on St. Andrew’s Square was already called the“Upended
Sugarloaf” 500 years ago. The floor space available on the ground floor measures a mere 22 m 2
(approx. 240 ft 2 ), whereby each floor is larger than the one below it, so that the top floor measures almost
double – approx. 43 m 2 (approx. 465 ft 2 ). Up until its destruction in 1945, the “Upended Sugarloaf”
formed one of the most unusual building complexes in German architectural history together with
the neighbouring building, the richly decorated Pillar House. Reconstructing the historic half-timbered
building dating from 1509, with each floor larger than the one below, was a real architectural
challenge: the construction required 60 cubic metres of oak beams – none the same as the next and
each individually measured – held together by 728 wooden nails. The half-timbered building is now
home to a Hildesheim chocolate manufacturer and a coffee roaster’s – the chocolate factory is on the
top floor, while the chocolate and freshly roasted coffee is sold on the ground floor.
HISTORICAL MARKET SquARE
Let yourself be immersed into the atmosphere of centuries long past
– anyone sitting on the historical market square today, sipping a delicious
cup of coffee, and looking around at all the historical buildings
that surround the Roland Fountain, will feel transported back
in time to centuries gone by. The market square was reconstructed
true to the original on the initiative of the city’s citizens and with
the help of a great many donations from 1984 to 1990. The Butchers’
Guildhall (Knochenhaueramtshaus) and the Bakers’ Guildhall
(Bäckeramtshaus) deserve special mention. These two half-timbered
buildings were constructed on the basis of the original plans. The
former Butchers’ Guildhall displays many elaborate details on its
façade and has a very rustic, but very comfortable interior. 7,500
wooden nails were used to hold the beams together. Another eyecatcher
on the market square is the “Tempelhaus”, with an architectural
style that clearly evidences Oriental influence. Today’s tourist-information
office is now located in this former patrician villa.
Looking at the elaborate façades of “Rolandstift” and “Wedekindhaus”
and the “Stadtschänke”, the “Rococo Building” and the “Wool
Weavers’ Guildhall” on the opposite side of the square, you’d never
believe that there is a modern concrete building on the inside.
Thanks to these buildings, which were reconstructed with such skill
and careful attention to detail, Hildesheim can honestly claim to
have one of the most beautiful market squares in Germany.

Immerse yourself in history| HOLIDAY MAGAZINE HILDESHEIM 2012
WERNER HOuSE IN THE HALF-TIMbERED DISTRICT
Philipp Werner, the original owner of the Werner House, was a secretary
for the government of the Prince Bishopric of Hildesheim – at
a time when religious conflicts were often resolved in a violent way.
Clashes between the supporters of the old and the new teachings
shaped life as it was in those days in Hildesheim. Philipp Werner
was considered as the spearhead of the counter reformation. He expressed
his frustration with the situation at that time to his fellow
citizens in pictures and inscriptions on the façade of his house. Werner
died in 1609, while his house dating from 1606 has survived for
centuries and is one of the most famous buildings in Hildesheim’s
half-timbered district today. Its richly decorated façade with 29 pictures
and inscriptions was elaborately restored from 2010 to 2011.
The carved figures were given greater definition in shades of red
and yellow; a luminescent blue and gold were also used. As a result,
the listed Renaissance building now stands out impressively
from the neighbouring houses. But it’s not only the Werner House
that is worth a look – visitors to the city of Hildesheim should be
sure to make time for a stroll through the half-timbered district between
“Brühl” and “Keßlerstraße”. This is where some 1,900 halftimbered
buildings once stood. Today, the buildings that remain
enable us to imagine how beautiful this old half-timbered district
must have been so long ago. During the summer, the climbing roses
are in bloom all along these streets, decorating the façades of the
quaint old buildings. The “Armoury” (Waffenschmiedehaus), the memorial
stone, a reminder of the persecution of the Jews, erected on
the site of the former synagogue in Hildesheim or the “Kehrwiederturm”
dating from 1465, a former city gate, are just some of the
sights worth seeing in the half-timbered district. This area is bordered
by the green fortification walls of the city and parks – the perfect
place to go for a leisurely walk.
CHuRCHES ARE EvIDENCE OF THE HISTORY OF THE CITY
Hildesheim, the city of churches – churches and Christian values
are still an important part of the bishopric today. In addition to the
two World Cultural Heritage churches, more than 30 churches are
evidence of the history of the city. St. Godehard’s, for example, in
the half-timbered district, is also well worth a visit. The Pope honoured
the significance of St. Godehard’s Church by bestowing the
title of “basilica minor” on it in 1963. The Romanesque church was
built by Bishop Bernhard in 1133 in honour of Hildesheim’s Bishop
Godehard, who was canonised in 1131. The chancel dating from 1861
is colourful; Bishop Bernhard’s sepulchre is located in the centre.
St. Andrew’s Church, with the highest church tower in Lower Saxony,
is difficult to overlook. The impressive tower, which can be
climbed, is 114.5 metres tall and was finally completed in 1889.
St. Lambert’s Church in Hildes-heim’s“new”city district (Neustadt)
is the only late-Gothic hall church in Hildesheim and was rebuilt
in 1952. Highlights here include the Peter-Pauls altar dating from
around 1420 and the Baroque organ.
The Mauritius Church on the “Moritz Mountain” (Moritzberg) is a
treasure and a unique architectural monument in northern Germany
at the same time because of its design as a columned ba-
St. Mauritius
silica, which is not typical for
the north. Following the Thirty
Years’ War, during which the
church was severely damaged,
the columned basilica with a
nave and two aisles was rebuilt
in the style of the Baroque period,
which is dominant in the interior
of the church today.
The idyllically situated Marienrode
Convent,which was founded
by Bishop Berthold in 1125,
can be found on the way from
Diekholzen to Neuhof, a district
of Hildesheim. Today, individuals
and groups are welcomed to
experience tranquillity and contemplation
in an atmosphere of
spiritual serenity in the guest
house.

HOLIDAY MAGAZINE HILDESHEIM 2012 | Monasteries, castles & fortresses
The many churches, monasteries and convents in the region of Hildesheim have helped to shape this area in a very special way. The
religious buildings with their immeasurable art treasures are still a very important part of the towns and communities today. Castles
and fortresses also give the region a very distinct character. Marienburg Castle is a popular attraction, while the Baroque castle in
Wrisbergholzen enjoys a more enchanted existence.
An impressive abbey can
be found in Lamspringe, to
the south in the region of
Hildesheim. The historical
grounds are famous for their
elaborately decorated convent
church and the picturesque park
with ponds and modern sculptures.
Lamspringe Abbey was
first officially mentioned in 872.

Thanks to this self-balancing electric-motor scooter, visitors can follow
the Rose Route and discover the sights the city has to offer in a
very special way. The guides on the Segway tours are members of
the Hildesheim Bachelors’ Society (Junggesellen-Kompanie). This
is not so much a guided city tour in the traditional sense, with a
lot of historical information. It’s more like the tour guides giving
the visitors instructions on how to experience Hildesheim with
accompanying information on the sights. The main purpose of the
two-hour tour is to have fun riding the Segways and to enjoy the
natural surroundings.
ROuND TRIpS AND TOuRS THROuGH THE REGION
Whether it’s the castle tour, the UNESCO tour or the monastery
route, groups learn more about the interesting, outstanding witnesses
to history and the beautiful natural surrounding around
Hildesheim on a bus tour accompanied by a professional guide.
The many small towns and communities in the region have also designed
some interesting offers for tourists. Bad Salzdetfurth, a spa
town close by, for example, offers city tours during which the visitors
can retrace the story of white gold. Hardly another town has
been more strongly influenced by salt than Bad Salzdetfurth. Starting
with the first salters and right on up to industrial salt mining,
the history of salt has made a visible impact on Bad Salzdetfurth.
The city of Elze features guided tours in costume. At the side of Henriette
Sander, the postmaster’s widow, visitors meet Sophie Catharina
Büscher, an arsonist – the special costumed tours transport the
visitors back into the Elze of earlier times. If you would like to find
out more about the beauty and special peculiarities of the Leine hill
country, you can take part in one of the guided tours through the
i
Segway Tours Information and booking available at the
Hildesheim tourist-information office
Leine hill countryside. Trained tour guides and hiking guides accompany
groups of 10 people and more as well as individuals. Whether
you’re interested in a walking tour to learn more about herbs
in the meadows along the Leine River or in the “Seven Mountains”
(Sieben Berge), city walks through Alfeld, guided tours through the
Lamspringe Abbey, a bicycle or canoe tour along the Leine River or
a local tour on the topic of glass factories – the Leine hill country
can be explored in many special, different ways.

A COLOuRFuL bOuquET OF CuLTuRE
Museums, Galleries and Theatre – the cultural side of the region
The renowned Roemer- und-Pelizaeus-Museum is widely known for its collection of Ancient Egyptian treasures. What many people
do not realise, however, is that there are also many small museums and galleries to be discovered in the region of Hildesheim. There
is a lot to see – anything from anti-snoring devices to stuffed sea monsters.
Center for World Music in Hildesheim
SMALL MuSEuMS AND GALLERIES
Some are real insiders’ tips, while others are so unusual that they
are truly one-of-a-kind in all of Germany – there are lots of interesting
small museums and galleries to be discovered in the region
of Hildesheim. The exhibits in the “Museum of Snoring” in Alfeld,
for example, include nose clips, sleeping masks, chin straps, lotions,
special pillows and other odd things. One thing is certain, however:
when it comes to getting a good night’s sleep, people can be
quite resourceful.
Oddities of a musical kind are presented in the “Center for World
Music” in Hildesheim. 1,000 musical instruments, 45,000 recording
mediums and 10,000 books from all over the world have been
brought together in the competence centre for music ethnology.
The unique range of instruments on display is particularly impressive
to see.
The small“Computer Culture Museum”in the“Kulturherberge Wernershöhe”
also has something interesting to offer. It presents the
history of the computer. In a room 70 m 2 (750 ft 2 ) in size, mainframes
like the PDP 12, the LGP 30 and the Zuse Z 25, along with Ro-
Gallery in the Stammelbach warehouse
botron computers, home computers and video gaming consoles will
transport you into the world of digital computing. Some spectacular
exhibits will surprise you in the “Heersum Museum of Local
History” (Heimatmuseum Heersum). A stuffed sea monster, mice
houses and a pair of trousers once worn by Obelix – these are all interesting
props from ten years of a passion for the theatre presented
by the “Forum for Art and Culture”. The Forum impresses audiences
every year with theatre performances, during which up to
200 people from the different villages in the region of Hildesheim
are on the stage.
The gallery in the former bull stable at Bodenburg Castle is no longer
an insiders’ tip. The Bad Salzdetfurth Art Society regularly shows
international exhibitions here.
The exhibition space of the gallery in the Stammelbach warehouse
(Stammelbachspeicher) in Hildesheim is also unique – with eight
single and collective exhibitions a year, the two floors of the former
warehouse, with 400 m 2 (4300 ft 2 ) each, are transformed into
a gallery.

The Civic Museum presents a
widely diversified trip back in
time to experience the history
of Hildesheim on five floors
in the carefully reconstructed
Butchers’ Guildhall. These exhibits
enable visitors to experience
the fascinating historical
panorama of a city that
developed a unique cultural
profile during the course of
twelve centuries of European
history. Such impressive objects

ROEMER- uND-pELIZAEuS-MuSEuM
The aim of the men who founded the Roemer- und-Pelizaeus-Museum,
Hermann Roemer (1816-1894) and Wilhelm Pelizaeus (1851-1930),
was to present and communicate knowledge of how the world began,
of old, mysterious cultures and of the native peoples in far-away places.
What they created is one of the most important museums in Germany
today. It is famous world-wide, mostly for its collection of Ancient
Egyptian treasures: many unique exhibits tell the story of Egypt’s history
from the beginnings to the Christian Middle Ages. Egypt is still
often associated with the topic of death, even today. The new concept
for the third and last part of the permanent Egyptian exhibition
entitled “Death in the Desert” is devoted to this central theme. With
the two other parts, which opened in 2008 and 2009, the exhibition
goes full circle:“The Old Kingdom”tells about Egypt’s earliest history
and its first golden age, while “Life on the Nil” depicts everyday life,
the economy and the world of the temples. The new concept for the
permanent exhibition uses many types of different staging, modern
light installations and new media to enable visitors to experience
these outstanding objects, some of which are one-of-a-kind, in a new

A LOT GOING ON IN THE REGION
International Festivals and Musical Highlights
The region also has a wide variety of events to enjoy – what many of them have in common is their international flair. Whether it’s
the International Street Music and Art Festival (Pflasterzauber) in Hildesheim, the Freden Music Festival or the Lamspringer September
– international artists transform these events into cultural highlights. The annual Hildesheim Christmas Market with the historical
market square as its backdrop gets everyone in a Christmas mood at the end of the year.

of wild animals typical of this
area. In addition to deer and elk,
there are also raccoons, martins,
owls and other birds of prey.
Children are particularly fond of
the rabbit and guinea pig pens,
which give them an opportunity
to pet the animals, and can
tire themselves out on the different

Sailors large and small are invited to take an exciting ride on the giant
swinging ship in Rasti-Land. Rasti-Land is a water and fun park
for the whole family. One of the main attractions is the high-speed
rollercoaster. Particularly families with small children will enjoy an
eventful day in Rasti-Land. The park has also featured a rafting ride
with a whirlpool since 2002. Would you like a bit of a thrill? Once
the swinging ship, which is installed in an eleven-metre high frame,
is in full swing, the passengers can enjoy a fabulous view from the
top. One of the new attractions in Rasti-Land is the Robber Baron
Castle – climbing towers reach high up into the sky as if they were
growing like wild. In between them, there are wire bridges at lofty
heights, a big slide and endless opportunities to play. Sledding is
also a new attraction. You can shoot down the hillside on snowywhite
tarpaulins on tyres on a thin film of water – the twists and
turns will surprise you. Just next door to Rasti-Land, there is Germany’s

Look for precious stones, pan for gold, interpret animal tracks, pet
the animals at the petting zoo or walk along the path that takes
you back to times in the ancient past – in the Family Park Sottrum
in Holle, there are lots of new experiences just waiting for children
and their parents. Experience nature first hand and learning
really can be called child’s play. In the realm of the senses, there is
so much for children to see, hear, touch and smell and in the “Poison
Garden”, they learn to recognise which plants to avoid. You’ll
also find a sense of history in Family Park Sottrum. You can make
fire like a cave man or bake bread in an old stone oven. Old farming
equipment shows how people used to sow and harvest and
the hammer still falls in the old blacksmith’s shop. There is also a
trail through the park that features different mathematical concepts.
You can feel numbers with your feet, the number zero tells
its story, square roots are calculated and Albrecht Dürer explains
his magic square. Leonardo Fibonacci, Pythagoras and Mr Binomal
are all happy to introduce themselves. Mathematics should be fun
and for all the maths teachers who don’t understand that, there is
the “Maths Teacher Punching Machine”. Family Park Sottrum, with
its more than 100 attractions, is nothing short of paradise for kids.

HOLIDAY MAGAZINE HILDESHEIM 2012 | Natural environment and Healthy Living
ENJOY THE GREAT OuTDOORS
More than history and culture
Forests, lakes, idyllic parks – it’s very easy to combine recreation and relaxation with nature in the region of Hildesheim. Whether it’s
summer or winter, there are many different opportunities to enjoy outdoor activities. The Natural Environment and Healthy Living
will be the focus of the Hildesheim theme weeks in 2012.
THE NATuRAL ENvIRONMENT AND HEALTHY LIvING
The region of Hildesheim is well known for its rich history and its
extensive range of cultural offers, but a quick look at the beautiful
natural landscapes and the opportunities for recreation and relaxation
also scores big points for the region. Idyllic parks, forests and
lakes are just waiting to be explored.
The city of Hildesheim lies nestled between the lowlands of the
Hildesheim “Börde”, the river valleys of the Leine and the Innerste
and the Leine hill country and the foothills of the Harz Mountains.
The natural environment and healthy living play an important role
here. Hohnsen Lake, a local recreation area, is used as a skating rink
in the winter and as a refreshing swimming pool in the summer.
The 800-year-old Magdalenen Garden, the Ernst-Ehrlicher-Park or
the green city fortifications and the adjoined forest areas are all
popular places to go for a walk, stroll around and simply relax. But
the surrounding area, with its 18 towns and communities, is also
characterised by a beautiful natural landscape – beyond the Leine
River to the south is the hill country, while the view to the north
is flat and looks at a wide expanse of countryside. Historic towns
with half-timbered buildings and impressive architecture can also
be explored by bicycle, where you’ll find a variety of different land-
scapes. An extensive network of signed bicycle paths weaves its way
through the region in every direction. Anyone who would prefer
to go on foot can choose one of the many hiking trails – variety is
the spice of life in the region of Hildesheim, and that’s guaranteed.
During the theme weeks in 2012, the city of Hildesheim will focus
on the many different opportunities to experience nature and
relaxation in the region of Hildesheim, the city’s excellent medical
facilities and the optimum conditions in the region for living a
healthy lifestyle. The theme weeks are part of a plan to re-position
the city over several years and to highlight the city’s strengths up
until the city’s anniversary year in 2015. And it’s without a doubt
that the“Natural Environment and Healthy Living”is one of the special
qualities that Hildesheim has to offer – according to this motto,
there will be various different activities organised for the theme
weeks in 2012, which will invite discussion and encourage people
to examine the topic more closely.

Naturraum und gesundes Leben | HOLIDAY MAGAZINE HILDESHEIM 2012
Idyllic parks and gardens in the region of Hildesheim are popular
places to spend time and go for walks. The Rosarium, an extensive
rose garden that has been restored according to plans from the Baroque
period, is the main attraction in the Magdalenen Garden and
a real highlight while the roses are in bloom. The Magdalenen Garden
is 800 years old, making it one of the oldest historical gardens
in Lower Saxony. It is divided into three parts: the decorative garden
with more than 1,800 roses, lawns and paths to stroll along, the orchard
and a vineyard, which is cultivated by the Hildesheim Wine
Convent. Anyone who is interested in finding out more about roses
can pay a visit to the adjoining Rose Museum. Peaceful ponds,
benches in protected corners and beautiful old trees can be found
in the Ernst-Ehrlicher-Park in Hildesheim. The play area and sunbathing
lawn around the rose labyrinth make the public park a
popular place to meet.
Mighty beech trees, chestnut, oak and linden trees and idyllic ponds
are all part of the Park Walshausen near Bad Salzdetfurth. The park
is approximately 20 acres in size and is based on the English gar-
pARKS AND GARDENS
den concept. The Italian villa, the manor, was designed by Laves,
the court master builder from Hannover, and built from 1828/29.
The garden is open to the public from 1 May to 31 October on Fridays
from 10 am to 6 pm.
The Wrisbergholzen Castle Park, which belongs to the community
of Sibbesse, features very old trees, ponds, a waterfall with a grotto
and a tea temple built on a hill. The orange greenhouse, which was
built in 1860, is also worth seeing. The park is open to the public on
the second September weekend of every year,on Open-to-the-Public
Monument Day. Beautiful ponds and a number of pieces of modern
art grace the picturesque Lamspringe Convent Park, which is a public
park. Six sculptures were created here during a sculptors’ symposium
in 1984. Artists who have received a work stipend for a limited
time live and work in the convent mill at the edge of the park.
Simply let go and relax – a walk through the 12-acre spa park in Bad
Salzdetfurth is more than just a stroll past flower beds. The 250-yearold
salt works will make you think you are at the seaside (see pg. 26).

EXpERIENCE NATuRE
Between Hiking Trails and Lakes
The great outdoors in the region can be experienced in many different ways. Hikers can retrace the steps of kings and emperors from
the Middle Ages, follow the Laves Cultural Path or experience the forest with all their senses in the midst of the Leine hill country.
Spending your leisure time out in the open can also be enjoyed at lakes and ponds and outdoor swimming pools.
THE KING’S ROuTE
The medieval paths followed by German emperors and kings are
the perfect place to go for more extensive hikes in the south of the
region of Hildesheim. Passing by castles, fortresses and ruins, hikers
and walkers can get a sense of what is was like to travel on
the old riding and cart trails: “Via Regis”, the King’s Route, takes
you through an impressively beautiful landscape – from the royal
court (Königshof) in Brüggen though the Seven Mountains (Sieben
Berge) and the Sack Forest (Sackwald) via the Königsdahlum
Imperial Palace and on to the former Werla Imperial Palace. This
cultural path documents the development of the countryside for
more than 1,000 years. Information boards point out special geological
features as well as economically and historically significant
places that can be found to the left and the right of the route. A side
trip to Lutter am Barenberge and to the Imperial Palace in Goslar is
highly recommended. The King’s Route is approximately 88 kilometres
long in total – the connection to Goslar brings it up to a total
of 100 kilometres.
i
A map of the hiking and walking trails in the region of
Hildesheim is available in the tourist-information office. A brochure
devoted exclusively to the King’s Route can be requested
from the Wirtschaftsförderungsgesellschaft Hildesheim Region
(HI-REG) mbH.
THE LAvES pATH
This is a path in Derneburg that offers a very special experience to
anyone who follows it – a pyramid, a Doric temple and a glass house
are all sights to be seen on the Laves Cultural Path around Derneburg
Castle. Georg Ludwig Friedrich Laves created a landscaped park
based on the English designs for the artistically minded Earl Ernst
zu Münster. A number of smaller buildings were added to the castle
park. These unusual structures are now the attractions for the
Laves Cultural Path today. The Laves Path goes directly along historical
artificial ponds close to the Derneburg Castle, which were
originally created centuries ago by Cistercian monks to breed fish.
Today, they belong to the Paul-Feindt Foundation and are protected
by law. The Derneburg ponds are the breeding place for many
types of endangered birds. Approximately 185 bird species have already
been observed there, including 98 types of breeding birds.
From the shores, passers-by can see black-necked grebes, grey herons,
great cormorants and many others right up close.

office.

swimming pools and lakes in region of Hildesheim welcome visitors

in the forest and connected by hiking trails. You can go swimming
in Humboldt Lake and Bruch Lake. Humboldt Lake is the largest
and belongs to a holiday resort with camp grounds, a restaurant
and children’s playgrounds. Bruch Lake features sunbathing areas
between the trees on its shores. Pedal boots and row boats can be
rented. The two smaller lakes – Direktor-Weinberger Lake and the
duck pond – are located somewhat deeper in the Weezener Bruch
woods and are conservation areas. In the summer, surfers and sail-
Experience the forest with all
your senses – this is something
you can do right in the heart of
the Leine hill country. The path
through the “Forest of Senses”
(Sinneswald) on the Schlehberg
in Alfeld has been designed
for people of all ages. Boxes in
which you can experience your
sense of touch, pipes you can
listen in to, wind chimes, an animal

much more – at approximately
20 stops, visitors young and old
can experience games, fun, re-

laxation and adventure. All the
while, you are also learning a
lot about the forest and its inhabitants.
A real attraction is
the low-rope garden, which is
located directly at the “Schlehberghütte”,
the Friends-of-
Nature House. The path is approximately
1.4 kilometres long
and provides a beautiful view
out over the city of Alfeld. The
path is open to the public and
easy for anyone to walk along
– with exception of two stops.

ors head for the Sarstedt-Giftener Lakes recreation area. There are
two BBQ pits that can be used free of charge and without prior reservation.
Close by there is another lake, the bathing lake in Heisede,
a part of Sarstedt. The former quarry has developed into a popular
swimming spot in very natural surroundings. The lakeshore with
its large sunbathing areas offers a lot of nature and great swimming
fun. There’s a small beach for children along with sanitary
facilities and a sun patio with a kiosk.
In Alfeld, you don’t have to depend on sunshine and good weather
– the 7 Berge Bad, an indoor swimming pool which just opened
2011, guarantees fun for the whole family even in bad weather. A
“convertible roof” makes it possible:
when the weather is nice,
the roof is open, when it’s raining
or stormy, it’s closed. Kids
can play to their heart’s content
on the giant water slide, in the
children’s wading pool with different

swimmers will enjoy the 25-m
pool and the 10-m diving tower.
The learners’ pool, an endless-swimming

chairs, many areas to lie down
and relax, the restaurant and a
sauna round out the offer.

HOLIDAY MAGAZINE HILDESHEIM 2012 | Bicycle Tours through the region
CuLTuRAL GEMS AND NATuRE
The region offers cycling tourists unforgettable experiences
The region has some very unique offers available to cycling tourists – whether it’s a rest stop on the picturesque shores of the Innerste
and Leine Rivers, a visit to one of the many cultural highlights, a beautiful view from the hills out over the broad expanses below,
a picnic on the flat meadows of the northern German lowlands or a stroll through one of the many historical towns.
Fortresses and castles, museums and galleries, a diverse landscape
in combination with culture – cycling tourists in the region of
Hildesheim can experience an unforgettable holiday. From longdistance,
theme-oriented routes and circular routes to local bicycle
paths and mountain biking – there are cycling routes to suit every
taste criss-crossing the region of Hildesheim in all directions. Following
the well-signed routes, you’ll find exactly what you want -
peace and quiet or culture, or something suitable for families with
children and routes that will put a glint in the eye of ambitious cyclists.
Excellent networks and signed bicycle paths totalling 380 kilometres
promise extraordinary outings. The main routes – the “Leine-Heide
Bicycle Path” (pg. 25), the “Bicycle Path to Art” and the “Hildesheim
Ring” (Hi-Ring) – are all perfect for a day’s outing and feature international
art and culture, natural surroundings and the opportunity
of seeing Hildesheim from some very special perspectives.
Corresponding signage with logos on the main routes and signs
to villages and towns and special destinations ensure that you always
know where you are going. The Bicycle Path to Art is specially
recommended for anyone interested in art and culture. This path,
which is close to 58 kilometres in length, connects the five shorter
routes: the “Water-Art Path”, the “Romantic Path”, the “Contact Art
Path”, the “Art Moves Path (Kunst-beWEGt) and the “Sculpture Path”
and goes from Sarstedt to Hildesheim and on to Bad Gandersheim.
The “Hi-Ring” is a bicycle tour that you can take around the city of
Hildesheim. The 45-km long circular route provides great views of
the churches and UNESCO World Heritage sites in the city and of
the surroundings. Each route can be pedalled within about four to
five hours. However, it is advisable to plan more time to explore the
many things you will discover along the way. There are also train
stations close to all the main routes, so that it is also possible to travel
parts of the route by train, if necessary.
i
Service tips for cyclists, lots of suggestions for possible tours,
map material to download and GPS routes are available from
the Hildesheim section of the General German Cycling Club
(Allgemeine Deutsche Fahrradclub, Kreisverband Hildesheim)
on the internet at www.hi-radtouren.de. Services, such as finding
bicycle-friendly accommodation and cyclists’ packages, bicycle
repair shops or bicycle rentals, getting the key to the free
bicycle stalls and maps and information material, are available
from the Hildesheim tourist-information office.

The Leine-Heide Bicycle Path is
a total of 410 kilometres long
and connects the low mountain
range in the Leine hill country
with the Lüneburg Heath
and the Hansiatic city of Hamburg.
The approximately 55km
long section of this longdistance
route in the region of
Hildesheim goes from south to
north – from Freden to Sarstedt
and offers magnificent views of
the Leine River valley and enchanting
half-timbered villages
and towns nestled in between
the Sieben Berge. The route travels
along such prominent ridges
as the Ith, the Thüster Berg,
Sieben Berge or the Osterberg,
without having to cross over
them. The entire route can be
pedalled in about five hours.
In keeping with the motto of
“Away from the street – down to
the river”, the route of the Leine-
Heide bicycle path in the region
of Hildesheim was extensively
LEINE-HEIDE bICYCLE pATH
optimised up until the end of
2011, so that the long-distance
bicycle path will be more attractive
than ever in the 2012 cycling
season. Existing paths were expanded
and improved or new
paths were created to make cycling
more pleasant with fewer
obstacles in the future. In addition,
new information signs
indicate the way to sights, accommodation
and restaurants
along the way. The Leine-Heide
Bicycle Path starts in Freden
and passes through the region
of Hildesheim. The half-timbered
town of Alfeld, which is
reached after about 12 kilometres
is a good place to make the
first stop – it’s an El Dorado for
explorers who really appreciate
something special. Who would
suspect that Alfeld was once
the largest animal trade centre
in the world? The Fagus Factory,
the first example of modern
industrial architecture designed
by “Bauhaus” founder Walter
Gropius in 1911 and added to the
list of UNESCO World Heritage
sites in 2011, is also well worth
a visit (see pg. 6). The route continues
in the direction of Gronau
– a distance of approximately
15 kilometres, which
passes by two castles: Brüggen
Castle and Rheden Castle. From
Gronau, with its town core dating
from the Middle Ages, the
next section of the route goes
past Elze and on to Nordstemmen
– very easy to spot by the
silhouette of the Marienburg
Castle, which tops the Marienberg
(see pg. 10). The last section
of the Leine-Heide bicycle path
in the region of Hildesheim –
about twelve kilometres – leads
to Sarstedt. The Sarstedt-Giften-
i
er lakes are highly recommended
for a lengthy break; they
are located close to the Leine-
Heide bicycle path (see pg. 23).
Any cyclist interested in science
will probably be drawn to
Ruthe, Sarstedt’s smallest district.
In an experiment unique
in all the world, the Institute for
Quantum Research of the University
of Hannover is doing
research on proving Einstein’s
theory of relativity. With its
GEO600 gravitation wave detector,
this research facility in
Ruthe is unique in Germany
and can be viewed by appointment.
Cyclists can also explore
the downtown area of Sarstedt,
with its colourful flower beds
and half-timbered buildings.

HOLIDAY MAGAZINE HILDESHEIM 2012 | Bad Salzdetfurth
bAD SALZDETFuRTH
A combination of relaxation and recreational activities
Bad Salzdetfurth, a spa town, is nestled in between the green hills of the Hildesheim Forest. This town combines long years of tradition
with the modern in a very special way. Bad Salzdetfurth offers visitors a very diverse range of leisure-time activities – whether
you’re looking for sports or just want to rest and relax. It’s also not at all far from Hildesheim, which has many cultural tourist attractions
to offer.
Bad Salzdetfurth, the only
spa town in the region of
Hildesheim offers you an opportunity
to get away from the
hustle and bustle of everyday
life, to just kick back and relax.
In Bad Salzdetfurth, situated in
the valley of the Lamme River
in the heart of the Hildesheim
Forest, you can see evidence of
its more than 800 years of history
at every turn. The state-certified
mud and salt-water spa is
situated beautifully in the gently
rolling hills, green meadows
and lush forests.
Given the conditions of the surrounding
countryside, the look
of the town has not changed
KICK bACK AND RELAX
much over the years. The spa
town is filled with historical
half-timbered buildings dating
from the 17th century. Small
shops, pubs and restaurants
invite visitors to take a relaxing
stroll and spend some time.
As the name already says, salt
(Salz) is inextricably linked to
the history of the town. The legend
tells of a Knight von Steinberg,
whose horse dug down
to a spring with its hooves at
the foot of the Sothenberg, but
the knight couldn’t quench
his thirst with the salty water.
However, he is said to have realised
at once that he had struck
“white gold”, which would make
him rich. As a result, the large
salt works from the 18th century
are a special attraction in the
spa town today. The salty water
trickles through the high piles
of brushwood and fills the air
with salt. Inhaling the salty air
in the salt works in the spa park
is particularly beneficial for the
upper respiratory tract.
Majestic old trees border the
park, reading and garden pavilions
as well as benches on the
broad expenses of lawn offer an
opportunity to sit down and re-
i
lax and to observe how nature
changes with the different seasons.
The lovely rose and flower
beds are beautiful to look at. The
first bathing house was built in
Bad Salzdetfurth in the middle
of the 19th century. Since that
time, visitors who appreciate
the healing powers of salt and
natural mud come from near
and far. The Bad Salzdetfurth
spa company has four different
types of medicinal water sources
available to provide a wideranging
offer (see pg. 28 and 29).
For accommodation in Bad Salzdetfurth go to pages 40 to 45.

Active, dynamic, vibrant – a visit
to Bad Salzdetfurth is not only
for those seeking relaxation. Active
people will find many different
opportunities in the
realm of sports activities to enjoy
in their leisure time. The
forested hills in the foothills of
the Harz Mountains, for example,
attract hikers, cyclists and
mountain bikers to enjoy a relaxing
day’s outing. But more
ambitious tours can also be taken
in Bad Salzdetfurth and the
surrounding area. At the initiative
of a number of sport enthusiasts,
the town has developed
into an important centre
for mountain biking in Germany
in the past few years. Some
10,000 visitors and 1,000 active
cyclists flock to the races of the
international mountain-bike
elite in Bad Salzdetfurth each
year.
Treasure hunters can follow
GPS-supported routes: the
“White Gold” treasure hunt
takes you through the old part
of Bad Salzdetfurth and has developed
into a real crowd puller.
You can go on another GPS
treasure hunt by bicycle, during
which you hunt for “field gold”
along a 20-kilometre stretch.
With a treasure map in hand,
the participants are guided
through fields and meadows to
different stops, where they have
to answer tricky questions.
GPS-supported hikes and bicycle
tours in the surrounding area
can also use Bad Salzdetfurth
as their starting point. The “Bad
Salzdetfurth Guide” is available
on the town’s homepage; it contains
many different hiking and
bicycle routes and can be downloaded
free of charge. Portable
navigation devices and many
Smartphones are able to do the
job. More than 100 kilometres of
trails and approximately 1,200
kilometres of cycling tours can
be found in the portal and pro-

Anyone who doesn’t have
a GPS device for the download
can borrow one in the tourist information
office.
Lovers of more sedate types of
sport might like to play a round
of golf at the Golfclub Bad Salzdetfurth-Hildesheim.
The 18hole
golf course is one of the
most beautiful courses in Lower
Saxony. Situated picturesquely
in the hilly oak and beech
woods, golfers have a wonderful
view of Bad Salzdetfurth and
Hildesheim.
Would you like to just take
off and leave everything behind?
The feeling of freedom
is boundless above the clouds –
visitors to Bad Salzdetfurth can
i
see for themselves by booking
a flight on a glider. At the gliding
airfield in Wesseln, a part of
Bad Salzdetfurth, you can book
a ride on the passenger seat of
a two-seater glider or a power
glider and enjoy a bird’s eye
view of the area.

HOLIDAY MAGAZINE HILDESHEIM 2012 | Therapie Centre for natural remedies
CENTRE FOR NATuRAL REMEDIES
The focus is on everything to do with health and well-being in the Therapy Centre
The Therapy Centre for Natural Remedies (TherapieZentrum der Naturheilmittel) in Bad Salzdetfurth offers an opportunity to find a balance
for hectic everyday life, to find peace and the time to just let your thoughts drift and many different ways to do something positive
for your own well-being. Salt water and mud packs form the traditional basis of the therapies available at the Therapy Centre. Combined
with other types of therapy – and this refers first and foremost to the physical therapies from traditional massage to connective tissue
and underwater massage, lymphatic drainage, physiotherapy and right on up to light, cold, heat and electrotherapy – mud packs and
salt water treatments can be all the more effective. With its natural remedies, the Therapy Centre offers the most comprehensive range
of physical therapies, physiotherapy and wellness in the region of Hildesheim.
The Therapy Centre can look
back on long years of service:
in 1850, right in the middle of
the transition from feudalism
to industrial capitalism, a
number of inhabitants of Salzdetfurth
had the bold idea of using
the mineral-rich salt water
won not only to produce salt but
as a natural remedy as well. The
recovery of “white gold” was declining
in importance and the
salters saw an opportunity for
extra income in operating a
bathing house. The salt works
built in 1746 to improve salt production
had already been drawing
visitors to Salzdetfurth for
a long time. They enjoyed the
salty air and discovered the
healing qualities – particularly
for respiratory illnesses. Inhaling
the salty air in the salt
works in the spa park is particularly
beneficial for the upper
respiratory tract. The fine salt
crystals are able to loosen mucus
and phlegm, which clears
the respiratory system of bacteria
and eases the swelling in the
mucous membranes. This is particularly
beneficial to people allergic
to pollen and asthma patients.
In 1856, the first bathing
house was built in Bad Salzdetfurth
– the salt water was also
used to remedy other ailments,
such as circulatory disorders,
skin and mild cardiovascular
problems. It wasn’t long before
the business was thriving and
the health spa was opened in
1857 as a result.
The natural peat moss from the
Luttrum bogs was added to the
list of natural remedies in 1952.
The peat moss contains valuable
humic acid and is still used
today for such illnesses as arthritis,
osteoarthrosis, spinal
problems and for rheumatic diseases,
gynaecological problems
and infertility. Mud baths and
packs are effective because their
warmth stimulates the skin to
release toxics and absorb minerals.
Mud has a positive effect on
the immune system and stimulates
the metabolism. It is antiinflammatory,
detoxifying and
helps to keep your hormones in
balance.

Therapie Centre for natural remedies | HOLIDAY MAGAZINE HILDESHEIM 2012
The two traditional natural remedies, salt water and mud, still form
the basis of the treatments offered by the Therapy Centre. However,
natural remedies are just one part of the treatments available
today. In the salt-water outdoor and indoor swimming pools,
guests enjoy the beneficial effects of the three-percent salt water
because the human body reacts positively to salt water. Doctors refer
to this as “vegetative reactions”. The salt penetrates horny skin,
whereas water is only absorbed in small quantities. The salt has no
chemical effect on the skin, but the protein in the skin cells is broken
down more quickly and the rate at which the cells divide is increased.
This results in a so-called “rejuvenation effect”. Because of
the greater buoyancy, it’s easier to swim in the salt water pool, which
has a salt content of 3 percent and a temperature of 30 to 33 °C. Muscles
relax, the circulatory system is stimulated and blood flow improves.
In addition to the indoor pool, there is also a large outdoor
pool – it’s a real pleasure to swim in the warm water outside in the
cold seasons of the year. Underwater massage jets, a pool for water
treading and cold arm baths outdoors improve your sense of wellbeing.
The generously sized quiet zone with lounge chairs and the
lovely patio and sunbathing lawns outside in the summer are all
the more reason to relax and stay a while.
Relaxation – along with the opportunities to take advantage of
health treatments – can be found in the 5-star saunas in the salt
water outdoor and indoor swimming pools. With five different saunas
– from the traditional Finnish sauna to the Kelo earth sauna
and the Kelo hexagonal sauna, the steam bath and Roman steam
bath – Salzdetfurth offers a wide range of enjoyment in a pleasant
atmosphere. The Therapy Centre includes the traditional natural
remedies of salt water and mud to improve your physical, mental
and emotional relaxation in modern forms of therapy and wellness
treatments.

HOLIDAY MAGAZINE HILDESHEIM 2012 | General Agency Terms and Conditions
GeNerAL AGeNCY TerMS AND CONDITIONS
These General Terms and Conditions apply for contracts concluded between the customer and the Hildesheimer Marketing Gesellschaft
mbH, represented by tourist-information Hildesheim (TI), as agents for travel services such as accommodation and city tours.
§ 1 Conclusion of contract
(1) The booker/user (customer) sends a binding order for the conclusion
of an agency contract to us for the desired services (events)
using electronic booking/commissioning via the„NetHotels“ information
and reservation system. At the same time, this entails the
binding order of the customer to the contract partner of the contract
arranged by us (organiser) for the conclusion of the agency
contract; insofar we are authorised by the organiser to accept declarations
and conclude contracts on his behalf.
(2) If the order is not sent electronically via the NetHotel portal,
this constitutes a non-binding inquiry. The customer’s order is then
made on the basis of documents sent to him by us.
(3) Concluding a contract does not require any specific form. The
declarations can be made in written, verbally, by Tel., by fax, by email
or using any other electronic means. For orders that are submitted
to us electronically, we will acknowledge the receipt of the
order immediately; this acknowledgement, however, does not constitute
a confirmation of the agency contract.
(4) The agency contract is not officially concluded until we issue
our confirmation.
(5) There is no travel contract in the sense of the Travel Contract
Act between the customer and us. We act only as the agent to close
the contract between the customer and the organiser. The mutual
rights and obligations of the contract concluded apply exclusively
to the customer and the organiser. The agency contract concluded
with the booking applies to that booking only. As a result, it is not
possible to combine different travel services. An independent, separate
agency contract must be concluded in each case. The agency
contracts concluded are also separate from one another. The rights
and obligations ensuing remain unaffected by one another.
§ 2 registration liability
If the customer registers other persons other than him/herself for
the event, he/she is responsible for the contractual obligations of
all the persons registered insofar as he/she has made a separate
declaration as such at the time of registration.
§ 3 Contractual obligations of the agency agreement
(1) Our contractual obligations depend on the contract concluded
with the customer as an agency contract taking into account these
General Terms and Conditions and consist of carrying out the actions
necessary to perform the agency contract, the corresponding
advising and the provision of the necessary travel documents, insofar
as these are not provided by the organiser directly to the customer.
(2) Insofar as we provide the customers with advice, we are liable
only within the scope of the law and the contractual agreements
between the customer and us for the correct selection of the information
source and the correct communication to the customer. The
same applies for the provision of information. An information contract
above and beyond this with a contractual primary obligation
for provision of information comes about exclusively as a result of
an express agreement between the customer and us.
§ 4 Supplementary provisions for the provision of accommodation
(1) General terms and conditions
1. The price charged for the travel arrangements is to be paid directly
to the organiser.
2. The mutual rights and obligations of the contract concluded
between the customer and the organiser also apply here only according
to the agency contract provided by us. The General Terms
and Conditions of the organiser apply – insofar as these have been
included in the contract.
3. The other provisions included in this section apply only for the
provision of rooms of the commercial and private organisers that
are connected to our booking system and for the accommodation
that is booked using this system. The organisers listed on the NetHotel
portal are all connected to the booking system. We act as agents
for the accommodation of these organisers only. These supplementary
provisions do not apply to any other agency activities.
4. The General Terms and Conditions of the organiser apply – insofar
as effective in the contract – and the following supplementary
provisions only in addition.
(2) Arrival time, no-show
1. The organiser concerned is only obliged to hold the reservation
for the accommodation booked until 6 pm on the day of arrival,
insofar as no other arrival time has been arranged between the
customer and the organiser.
In the event of a no-show, the organiser is entitled to give the accommodation
booked to a third party; in this case, the customer
loses his/her claim to the accommodation. This does not apply if
the customer has indicated a later arrival at the time the order was
placed or if the order is placed on the same day as the day of arrival.
2. If the accommodation booked is not assumed by a third party,
the organiser is entitled to claim a flat rate of up to 80% of the arranged
travel price. The flat rate depends on the type of accommodation
booked and the additional services requested.
3. The flat rate charged depends on the claim of the organiser towards
the guest with the deduction of his regularly saved expenses.
The customer is entitled in any case to bring evidence to reduce
this claim.
(3) Withdrawal (cancellation), rebooking
1. The customer can withdraw from the contract (cancellation)
with the organiser at any time.
2. The cancellation is free of charge for the customer up to 30 day
before the beginning of the trip. After that, the organiser is entitled
to calculate the charges for the no-show.
3. Requests for rebooking or cancellations can be forwarded to
us in writing. If it is possible for us to accommodate the wishes of
the customer, he/she will receive a separate confirmation. Otherwise,
the customer will be informed that the request was rejected.
For rebooking or cancellation, we will charge a fee of € 5.00 for each
contract arranged and affected by the rebooking.
4. Insofar as the original contract has to be cancelled partially or
in full by a rebooking, the organiser is entitled to charge the damages
flat rate for cancellation or no-show. This will be charged in
addition to the rebooking fee.
§ 5 Supplementary provisions for the provision of events that
are provided in the form of guided tours

General Agency Terms and Conditions | HOLIDAY MAGAZINE HILDESHEIM 2012
(1) Guided tours depend on a minimum number of participants.
We take this into consideration in our role as agents. Here, we act
merely as the agent for the contract to be concluded between the
tour guide as the organiser and the customer for the tour in question.
This contract can only be concluded when the minimum number
of participants has been reached. Hereinafter, these will be referred
to as “closed guided tours”.
(2) Excepted from this are the regular city tours offered by
Hildesheimer Stadtführer-Gilde e.V., which are mentioned separately
in the agency agreement or in the description of the services
provided. In this case, we are also only the agents. The contract
for the guided tour concerned is then completed between the customer
and the “Gilde”, which has its members conduct these guided
tours. Hereinafter, these will be referred to as “open tours”.
(3) Non-attendance, withdrawal (cancellation)
1. The customer can withdraw from (cancel) tours with the tour
guide or us at any time. Closed tours can only be cancelled up to
one day before the beginning of the event free of charge. Thereafter
or if the customer is a no-show, the customer is obliged to pay
the price of the guided tour in full. Any fees paid to us in advance
(e.g. admission fees) or for fees paid to us for the organiser will be
reimbursed to the customer if said services were cancelled in time.
2. The fee to be paid to the tour guide for these services becomes
due with the conclusion of the agency contract. Any admission fees
– unless otherwise expressly arranged as an exception – are to be
paid by the customer on location and are not included in the event
price.
3. We are authorized to accept fees arranged with the customer
from the customer in the name of and for the account of the tour
guides we represent or the “Gilde”. The customer receives a written
receipt as proof of payment to the tour guide. The tour guide is
entitled to provide services only upon production of the receipt by
the customer.
4. The tour guide engaged is not obliged to conduct the guided
tour, even for closed guided tours, personally. He/she is at liberty
to designate a substitute, even without prior notice. All the tour
guides used by our agency have to fulfil our quality requirements.
The tour guide is obliged to designate only the persons accepted by
our agency as a substitute.
§ 6 Complaints
(1) Any complaints or other claims resulting from the contracts
for which we acted as agents are to be made directly to the contract
partner of the agency contract. A notice made to us will not suffice
to honour any deadlines, nor are we authorized to accept such
notices for the organiser nor are we obliged to forward such documents
to the organiser. On the basis of the agency contract closed
with the customer, we are only obliged to supply the customer with
all the information and documents that are important to him/her
to assert the claim or complaint.
(2) We are also not obliged to advise the customer on his/her
claims against the organiser or to notify him/her of any deadlines
that have to be observed.
§ 7 Liability, limitation of liability
(1) We are not liable for any claims that result from the agency
contracts we provide. This also applies to the any deficiencies in
the services provided and any injury or property damages that the
customer has occurred in connection with the event provided, insofar
as we have not expressly declared our liability.
(2) This does not affect a liability resulting from the agency contract
concluded between the customer and us. For damages due to
slight negligence by us or one of our legal representatives or vicarious
agents, these damages will be limited to foreseeable damages
typical for contracts and three times the sum of the event price.
For damages that are not the result of the violation of major contract
obligations, the liability is limited to intent and gross negligence.
Liability resulting from the agency contract for personal injury
remains unaffected.
§ 8 Statute of limitations / deadlines
(1) Any customer claims resultant from the agency contract concluded
with us are to be indicated within one month (deadline).
The deadline begins with the customer’s knowledge of the reason
for such a claim, but at the earliest with the end of the agency contract
term of the agency contract.
(2) This does not apply if the customer is not at fault for missing
the deadline.
(3) Any such claims made against the organiser do not serve to
keep the deadline.
(4) All customer claims against us fall under the statute of limitations
of one year (shortened statutory limitation). Exceptions to
this are claims in tort.
§ 9 Data privacy
The data communicated to us by the customer will be collected,
stored and processed electronically, for the automated process as
well. We are entitled to use this data within the scope of our agency
contract and to forward it to the operator insofar as this is necessary
to fulfil the purpose of the contract.
§ 10 Place of performance, applicable law, legal venue
(1) German law applies exclusively to all legal relations between
the customer and us.
(2) For all disputes resultant from the legal relations between the
customer and us, insofar as the customer is a business person, a legal
person according to private or public law or persons who have their
place of residence or usual place of residence abroad or whose place
of residence or usual place of residence is unknown at the time of
the commencement of a suit, Hildesheim is the exclusive legal venue
or, if applicable, the court responsible for the city of Hildesheim.
In other cases, the legal venue will be determined according to the
legal regulations.
§ 11 Severability Clause
Should any individual provisions of these General Terms and
Conditions be or become invalid in full or in part, this does not affect
the validity of the remaining provisions. Insofar as a provision
has not become part of the contract or is invalid, the legal conditions
apply.
