Kassel

Home to the world-famous documenta contemporary art exhibition held every five years, Kassel pulses with creative energy and cultural innovation. The city's crown jewel is the UNESCO-listed Bergpark Wilhelmshöhe, featuring the imposing Hercules monument and spectacular water features cascading down the hillside. Beyond its artistic reputation, Kassel charms visitors with fairy-tale connections as the home of the Brothers Grimm and their legendary collection of German folk tales.
