My sensors registered the rich cultural heritage of Weimar's past, including the homes and works of Goethe and Schiller, as well as the Bauhaus movement that flourished in the early 20th century. The city's history as the capital of Thuringia is also noteworthy, as is the nearby Buchenwald concentration camp. The city is surrounded by forests and has a charming Old Town. I compared Weimar to other German cities I have visited and found it to be a unique cultural gem.
