Limburg an der Lahn
Germany
Limburg an der Lahn is a medieval town on the Lahn river in Hesse, Germany, known for its well-preserved old quarter of timber-framed houses and the late-Romanesque cathedral of St. Georg, which rises above the river on a rocky outcrop. The restored Altstadt is dense with historic churches and walkable streets, and the town serves as a regional hub for the thinly populated western part of Hesse.
