Hornburg, Medieval town district in Schladen-Werla, Germany.

Located at 145 meters elevation, Hornburg encompasses a collection of 400 protected half-timbered houses spread throughout its eastern neighborhoods.

The town experienced its golden age during the 16th century when it became the primary hop cultivation center in Northern Germany.

The Protestant Town Church of Beatae Mariae Virginis, constructed in 1616, stands as a notable religious structure in the Harz foothills.

The town maintains a heated outdoor swimming pool, mini-golf course, museum, restaurants, medical facilities, and shops within walking distance.

Since 1999, Hornburg developed a Garden for the Senses featuring 30 interactive objects placed throughout squares and alleys for tactile experiences.
