Hoffmannstadt Fallersleben
Explore the beautiful city
Fallersleben was first mentioned in a document in 942. “… the very invincible King Otto I”, it says in a document that was sealed in the Hofburg Palace in Magdeburg and which speaks of a place called Valareslebo, today’s Fallersleben. Fallersleben is therefore verifiably over 1000 years old, but probably even older.
The romantic town has retained its charm to this day, despite being part of a big city.
Many old half-timbered houses have been rebuilt. The Hoffmannhaus is one of the most beautiful. Other buildings of note are the castle and the brewery next to it, in which beer, which used to be used to heal the sick as herbal medicine, is now brewed and tasted according to old tradition.
The Michaeliskirche (Church), built in classic style in 1803, has an unusual architectural feature, a so-called transept system. The sulfur bath has existed since 1925 as a bath house with a sulfur source and can be experienced through two wells on Westerstrasse (Street) which delightfully show Fallersleben’s past.
Historic gem from the Renaissance period: Fallersleben Castle
Fallersleben Castle, in the heart of the Fallersleben district of Wolfsburg, in a beautiful park next to the classic Michaeliskirche, dates from the 16th century. A bridge and a moat were reconstructed on the basis of archaeological excavations from 1998.
The west wing, which was carefully restored in 1990, has been preserved from the palace complex, in which a romantic vaulted cellar, gray paintings from the Renaissance period and baroque stucco ceilings can be viewed. Here, the Hoffmann von Fallersleben Museum of the City of Wolfsburg (Tel .: 49 5362 52523) invites you to meet the poet of our national anthem and hundreds of well-known children’s songs. The study site and the archive of the Hoffmann von Fallersleben Society are in the neighboring Kavaliershaus.
