Harz mountains to Goslar




Goslar has a lovely mediaeval center and stands alongside the Harz mountains which are the most northerly mountains in Germany.

The Imperial Palace and what's left of the original Cathedral together with the town center make up a World UNESCO site. Emperors of the Holy Roman Empire used to spend time here. Interestingly, mentioning the Romans, the area north of the Rhine was never conquered by the Romans - like Ireland!

Hazy sunshine for the first time today!
