On the wall



The map
Hameln lies on the River Weser in Lower Saxony, and on the map its medieval core is easy to spot. The old town is an almost oval shape on the east bank, bounded by a ring of roads that follow the line of its former walls. Inside it, the main streets run lengthways, with a finer web of lanes between them.
The Weser passes the old town in a wide channel that is split by islands, with a weir and a lock regulating the flow. Bridges link the centre to the western bank, where the plan becomes more open. Beyond the ring, newer districts spread across the valley floor and up toward the wooded hills that frame the town.
Hameln is known worldwide for the legend of the Pied Piper, said to have led the town's children away in 1284. Its old town also has fine examples of Weser Renaissance architecture, including the Rattenfängerhaus and the Hochzeitshaus. A Hameln map poster shows that storybook centre as it really is: a clear, compact oval beside a busy river.
The historic centre forms a neat, rounded shape enclosed by a ring road on the line of the old walls, the clearest element on the map.
The river divides around islands beside the old town, and the weir, lock and bridges create an intricate cluster of lines along the water.
Newer neighbourhoods spread outward across the Weser valley toward wooded slopes, so the dense core sits within a softer, wider pattern.
