Celle Travel Tip:
Old Town
Hoppener Haus, the most famous and attractive timber-framed house in Celle's Altstadt
Celle's 700-year old Altstadt, or Old Town, is a reminder of the history here. Over 500 half-timbered houses can be found here. The most interesting street is Zöllnerstraße which dates from 1292. Here you can enjoy street cafes and small shops and many wonderfully old buildings. In the square is a horseshoe set into the floor. Duke Otto the Magnanimous is said to have been fatally wounded here in 1471, and touching the horseshoe may bring you luck.
