 About the Town of Kassel
 
Kassel - the town in the heart of Germany - has something for everyone. In addition to its palaces, parks and museums, it is also home to the documenta, one of the largest exhibitions of contemporary art. Kassel is the main town on the German Fairytale Route and its Bad Wilhelmshöhe district is a spa centre.

There are three parks and three palaces to visit in Kassel. The hilltop Wilhelmshöhe park affords a marvellous panoramic view of the town. Also situated on Wilhelmshöhe hill is Löwenburg Castle, a romantic, neo-Gothic ruin. Karlsaue, a baroque park on the banks of the River Fulda, and Wilhelmsthal Palace, a summer residence and hunting lodge, are also well worth a visit.
