The Goethe National Museum is the most important museum for the presentation and study of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe’s life and works. An extraordinary treasure is contained within – the poet’s actual residence with original furnishings and collection pieces. Numerous items from his personal collections are on display in the accompanying exhibition “Flood of Life – Storm of Deeds” which highlights Goethe’s vastly diverse interests beyond his literary production.

The Goethe National Museum is a wonderful look at the life of Goethe. It has many of his personal items, his writings and lots of information about his life. We learned so much about this writer, how he loved science as well as literature and is a must see for any history buff. The tours come with a handheld source of information that comes in many languages.

Die Herzogin Anna Amalia Bibliothek is located in the centre of Weimar on the Platz der Demokratie and is on the UNESCO list of World Heritage. Due to actual Covid-19 measures only a limited number of visitors are allowed. We arrived early and already a pretty long queue had formed, so we had to wait about one hour to get inside. Only part of the library is accessable and it was only possible to admire the beautiful Rococo Hall from the first floor, not from the galleries. Unfortunately, part of the collections was lost in 2004 due to a devastating fire. The library and especially the Rococo Hall is impressive and a must-see in Weimar.

A well presented and informative show. Naturally all in German, but glad I could understand most of it. I liked the phrase “ Earth is an oasis of life in a huge void” Parking was not easy but found a place up the hill. Had a good meal in the restaurant but it was fairly slow.
