Weimar

The final trip the International Office at Uni Bamberg organized for us foreign exchange students was to Weimar. The pride of Weimar are the two literarischen Riesen they like to call hometown boys, namely Goethe and Schiller. The Weimar Republic’s constitution was drafted in Weimar in 1919, although that fact was barely mentioned during our tour of the city. Weimar was the centre of the Bauhaus movement and the first Bauhaus school was founded there the same year as the Weimar Republic. Other famous names who have called Weimar home: Bach, Liszt, Nietzsche, and Carl Zeiss.

Half the city is somehow named after these two
