Guided Story

Take a moment to observe the reconstructed facade of this half-timbered house. Originally built in 1755, it was destroyed during the air raid on March 22, 1945. What you see now is a faithful reconstruction, completed between 1983 and 1986 for the new Hildesheim Savings Bank building. It stands as a reminder of both the city's rich history and the devastating events it endured. As you glance northeast, you can spot the historic marketplace, and a short walk further brings you to the Roland Fountain, another notable landmark of Hildesheim.
