Weimar is the most culturally significant city in all of Germany. Many great people have called Weimar their home. Great poets such as Johann Wolfgang von Goeth and Friedrich von Schiller, and the great pianist Franz Liszt worked there. This city was the birthplace of Bauhaus, a movement that influenced much of 20th century art and design.
During World War II, Hotel Elephant became a famous place for Hitler's speeches. The picture above on the left is showing the balcony where Hitler would give his speeches. The picture above on the right is the room where we stayed. On the picture on the left is a statue of the two famous poets F. von Schiller and F. Nietzsche. Below is a picture of 'fake' ruins that were man-made to look pretty.
