Explore Wetzlar
Lotte, Leica, Leitz
The city of Wetzlar in Middle Hesse looks back on a long history and has been characterised by culture, trade and industry. The Leica camera set out on its way to world renown from Wetzlar. Johann Wolfgang Goethe’s stay at Wetzlar inspired him to write his novel “The Sorrows of Young Werther”. And the lively town has still lost nothing of its appeal.
Where do you want to go?
Just take a walk to explore the idyllic historic city-centre with its many half-timbered houses and baroque buildings along the river Lahn and the prominent unfinished dome. Leitz Park is one of the town’s current attractions that tourists like to explore, some of them looking through their cameras. As the hotel is situated right in the middle of Leitz Park, you definitely won’t be able to miss it.
