We caught a train to Goslar to look at this pretty town which is also a UNESCO World Heritage site. The town was founded in 922 and 100 years later became an Imperial City and one of the most important seats of power in the Holy Roman Empire. In the Middle Ages it was a centre of faith with 47 churches, monasteries and chapels.

Legend has it that the Knight Ramm's horse scratched the earth with his hoof to reveal a vein of silver ore. The city treasury in the main square houses the carillon bells and at 12 o'clock figurines emerged to show the legend and history of silver mining in the town.
A short walk from the market place was the Imperial Palace with Heinrich 111's tomb nearby.
