Darmstadt
Center of Art Nouveau and science city – these are the designations used to describe the Hessian metropolis of Darmstadt. It owes its reputation to the technical university founded in 1877 and the artist colony whose members built their buildings on the Mathildenhöhe. For this reason, there are numerous Art Nouveau buildings there today, including the Russian Chapel, the Ernst Ludwig House, and the Wedding Tower – the city's landmark.

Science City Darmstadt
Science City – The city received the official title in 1997 from the Hessian Ministry of the Interior. And rightly so – Darmstadt is strongly represented in the fields of science and research. The proportion of employees in research and development throughout Germany is highest in the Science City. The Technical University also enriches the city and is one of the best technical universities in Germany. The Science and Congress Center darmstadtium forms the hub for events in the fields of science, business, and culture.

The versatile city
In addition to science, the city also offers culture, nature, and art. You can take a city tour to get to know the old town with its history, buildings, and green spaces. A real eye-catcher is also the Orangerie, a baroque palace building with an attached park, which is now used as an event venue. Regular events and concerts take place here. In the northeast lies the Dieburger Mark, which offers nature lovers appealing hikes through a forested landscape. The Messel Pit is also located here. The disused open-cast mine is Germany's oldest UNESCO World Natural Heritage Site.
