Hofgeismar, Historical town in Kassel district, Germany.

Situated at 161 meters above sea level, Hofgeismar extends across the northern region of Hesse with traditional German architecture and municipal buildings.

The settlement received its city rights in 1223 from Archbishop Sigfried II of Mainz, developing into a central point for ecclesiastical administration.

The town maintains multiple timber-framed houses from the 17th century and features the Neustädter Church, which served both German and French Reformed congregations.

Hofgeismar train station, constructed in 1846 on the Kassel-Warburg railway line, provides regular connections to the regional capital of Kassel.

The discovery of healing springs in the 18th century transformed Hofgeismar into a spa town, attracting visitors seeking therapeutic waters.
