"The heart of the city". Very large plaza with statues of Martin Luther and his 'student & defender' Philipp Melanchton. Beautiful, old, buildings surround. And, like many European cities, they were preparing for their Christmas festival when we visited in mid-November. We often hear that one European city (or the other) is very pretty.....it seems to me that Wittenberg is not one of them that I have heard......however, to my eyes, this is one of the prettiest that I have visited.
