Hamelin (Hameln) is one of Germany's most famous small towns — universally known through the legend of the Pied Piper of Hamelin (der Rattenfänger von Hameln), the mysterious figure who in 1284 led the town's rats to the Weser River and, when refused payment, led away 130 children who were never seen again. The legend — recorded since the 13th century and retold by the Brothers Grimm, Robert Browning and countless others — is the central identity of a town that uses the story with considerable skill and charm, with street performances, guided tours, and the remarkable Rattenfängerhaus (Pied Piper's House) among the attractions built around the medieval tale.
The Pied Piper legend is woven throughout Hamelin, but the town's actual architectural heritage is independently remarkable — the Weser Renaissance style, unique to this stretch of the Weser River valley, produced some of the most elaborate and decorative secular architecture of 16th and 17th-century Germany, and Hamelin has an extraordinary concentration of Weser Renaissance buildings including the Rattenfängerhaus, the Hochzeitshaus (Wedding House), the Demptersche Haus and the Leisthaus. The Weser Uplands (Weserbergland) landscape surrounding Hamelin — rolling hills, river meadows and the meandering Weser — is one of the most scenic in Lower Saxony.
Pied Piper Legend and Performance: The Pied Piper legend is performed as a free open-air theatre show on the steps of the Hochzeitshaus every Sunday at noon from mid-May to mid-September — one of the most-attended free public performances in Germany. Guided Pied Piper tours of the old town run daily in summer. The legend's original location — the Bungelosenstrasse where the children allegedly disappeared — is still marked in the old town.
Weser Renaissance Architecture: Hamelin's Weser Renaissance buildings are among the finest examples of this regional architectural style unique to the Weser River valley — characterised by elaborate bay windows (Utluchten), decorative gables, and profuse stone ornamentation. The Rattenfängerhaus (1603) and the Leisthaus (1589, now the local history museum) are the finest examples.
Weserbergland Landscape: The Weser Uplands surrounding Hamelin — the rolling hills and river valleys of the Weserbergland — are one of the most beautiful natural landscapes in Lower Saxony, accessible by the well-marked Weserbergland-Weg long-distance hiking trail that passes through the town.
