About Darmstadt
Darmstadt is a university city in southern Hesse, best known as Germany's pre-eminent centre of the Art Nouveau (Jugendstil) movement — the Mathildenhöhe artists' colony, founded in 1899 by Grand Duke Ernst Ludwig of Hesse, attracted leading artists and architects of the European Art Nouveau movement and produced a remarkable ensemble of buildings, interiors and applied arts that is inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Wedding Tower (Hochzeitsturm), the Ernst Ludwig House and the Russian Chapel on the Mathildenhöhe together form one of the finest intact Art Nouveau ensembles in Europe.
Beyond the Mathildenhöhe, Darmstadt has a strong identity as a technology and science city — the city is home to the European Space Operations Centre (ESOC), which controls the majority of ESA's space missions, and to the Technical University of Darmstadt, one of Germany's leading technical universities. The city's Hessian State Museum (Hessisches Landesmuseum) has one of the most comprehensive natural history, art and decorative arts collections in the region. The surrounding landscapes of the southern Odenwald forest and the Rhine plain are accessible within minutes of the city.
