Located on the banks of the river Aller, the beautiful timber-framed houses and mix of quaint history and stunning natural areas, make Celle the epitome of a German fairy tale town. You will find Celle along the German Timber-Frame Road, so it will be no surprise to see so many examples of this style of building.

The historic Old Town lies at the very heart of Celle and is home to the town church and Old Town Hall as well as an abundance of half-timbered houses spanning several centuries. Among these historic highlights are the synagogue, the oldest largely preserved half-timbered synagogue in Lower Saxony, and the Hoppener Haus.

Aside from its many historical sights, Celle is also the gateway to the expansive Luneburg Heath, a nature reserve featuring many different habitats for birds such as woodpeckers and grouse. Nature lovers will also enjoy the captivating French Garden. Now a listed park, the French Garden is a sprawling baroque courtyard and leisure garden first open in the 1600s. Here you can wander the avenue of lime trees, English rose garden, lawns, copses and water fountains.

Celle is located just 43km from bustling Hanover, and many visitors also opt for a city breaks here,  which offer a truly diverse range of attractions, festivals and places of interest.
