Hanover

Among the cities of Lower Saxony, Hanover stands out for the Herrenhausen Gardens, a Baroque ensemble associated with the House of Hanover. The state capital lies on the River Leine, where a compact centre brings together the reconstructed Old Town, the Market Church and the Old Town Hall. Much of Hanover was rebuilt after the Second World War, explaining the contrast between historic forms and broad modern streets. South of the centre, Maschsee is an artificial lake used for watersports and the annual Maschseefest. Hanover is also a major trade-fair city, with one of the world’s largest exhibition grounds.
