Marktplatz Goslar, Historic marketplace square in the old town of Goslar, Germany.
The Marktplatz Goslar is a rectangular cobblestone square measuring approximately 50 by 40 meters, surrounded by significant historic buildings including the Gothic town hall, market church, and richly decorated half-timbered houses.
This central square has served as a focal point for commerce and community activities since medieval times, establishing Goslar as a key trading hub during the Holy Roman Empire era.
The square regularly hosts weekly markets and seasonal festivals, including the famous Goslar Christmas Market that attracts visitors from across the region during the holiday season.
The square is accessible 24 hours a day and wheelchair-friendly, with numerous surrounding restaurants and cafés offering local cuisine and regional specialties to visitors.
At its center stands a market fountain crowned with an 18th-century eagle, whose lower basin from the 12th century is considered the largest bronze cast of the Romanesque period.
