HILDESHEIM, GERMANY
ХИЛЬДЕСХАЙМ, ГЕРМАНИЯ

Hildesheim is a city in Lower Saxony, Germany, about 30 km southeast of Hanover on the banks of the Innerste River. In 2015 the city and the diocese celebrated their 1200th anniversary. The Holy Roman Emperor Louis the Pious founded the Bishopric of Hildesheim in 815 and created the first settlement with a chapel. With the Hildesheim Cathedral and the St. Michael's Church, Hildesheim became a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1985. The Hildesheim Marktplatz (historic market place) was reconstructed in 1984–1990. There are many remarkable buildings situated on Marlplatz including the Town Hall, Knochenhaueramtshaus, Bäckeramtshaus, Tempelhaus and Stadtschänke (Town Tavern). The «Thousand-year Rose» is a reputedly 1,000-year-old dog rose bush, allegedly the world's oldest living rose. It continues to flourish on the wall of the St. Mary’s Cathedral apse. Hildesheim’s museums are home to treasures of international renown. The Roemer and Pelizaeus Museum in particular is famous for its ancient Egyptian collection and outstanding special exhibitions on a wide variety of topics. From November through December, the Hildesheim Christmas Market provides visitors with a very special Christmas atmosphere set before the imposing backdrop of the Historical Market Square.
