The unspoilt university town of Marburg is located on the lush green valley region along the Lahn river, thus the name 'Green City'. Speckled with medieval buildings, narrow cobblestone streets, picture perfect Gothic and Renaissance architecture and undisturbed riverfronts, Marburg is an ideal getaway for peace seekers. Visit the purely Gothic and historic St.Elizabeth Church, built in the 13th century A.D., or spend your time paddling along the unhurried and easygoing currents of the spectacular Lahn river. Marburg is an eye-soothing masterpiece.
