A famous summer guest and a majestic cathedral: A visit to Wetzlar—which Emperor Barbarossa elevated to the status of a free imperial city in 1180—offers a glimpse of history at every turn. In 1772, Goethe spent a fateful summer in the city while writing the original version of *Werther*. The homes of Charlotte Buff (Lottehaus) and Karl Wilhelm Jerusalem (Jerusalemhaus) can still be visited today. Wetzlar’s landmark is the imposing cathedral with its façade featuring elements from various architectural periods. On the hike, you’ll pass the keep on the Kalsmunt, a 12th-century Staufer castle. After that, the scenery becomes tranquil until the imposing backdrop of Braunfels Castle comes into view.
