Museum lovers have their every wish fulfilled in Kramerstrasse in the heart of Hanover’s old town. This historic street in the old town connects the square at the Marktkirche (Market Church) with the Hohe Ufer and the riverside promenade. Besides the museums, Kramerstrasse teems with culinary delights and shopping opportunities.
Maschsee.
In the 19th century, the old town of Hanover had to deal with frequent floods. This gave rise to the idea of building an artificial lake. The Maschsee played an important role during the World Wars – today it is a brilliant local recreation area and fish breeding ground and is popular with water sports enthusiasts.
Lüttje Lage is served at various festivals and restaurants and is even available in retail outlets. Hanover’s traditional beverage is a mixture of Lüttje-Lagen draught beer and grain spirit. The drinking style is equally traditional: two glasses are used simultaneously to pour the beer and grain brandy into the mouth - aprons and bibs are provided for beginners. The mixed drink originated in the 15th century and gave Hannover its current status on the brewing scene.
