About Mitte
What are the main landmarks in Mitte?
Counting the sights takes a while. Mitte carries the Market Church, the Landesmuseum Hannover, the August Kestner Museum and the Hanover Historical Museum, with the Kestnergesellschaft and the Sprengel Museum recorded on the same ground. Older fabric survives in the Aegidienkirche and the Church of the Holy Cross.
The Sculpture Mile, the Goseriedebad and the Leineinsel Klein-Venedig fill out a district that hands a visitor more named sights than any single day will absorb.
What is the history of Mitte?
Mitte keeps its past standing. No founding year sits in the record for the district, so its history is read instead from the Market Church, the Aegidienkirche, the Church of the Holy Cross and Burg Lauenrode. The Hinübersches Erbgewölbe and the Goseriedebad belong to that older layer.
Memory work continues at the Julius-Trip-Denkmal. The VW tower and the Sculpture Mile stand among them in Hannover.
Where is Mitte?
Mitte covers the compact core of Hannover, ground shared by the Goseriedebad, the Leineinsel Klein-Venedig and the Kestnergesellschaft.
