Muhlhausen

Mühlhausen occupies the upper Unstrut valley in northwestern Thuringia. Its compact historic centre remains enclosed by substantial sections of medieval fortifications, recalling the town’s former importance as a Free Imperial City. Gothic churches are central to its identity: St Mary’s Church is associated with the radical Reformation preacher Thomas Müntzer, who was active here during the German Peasants’ War of 1525. Timber-framed houses, market squares and church towers give the old town a notably coherent medieval character.
