Goethe Square with the Kasseturm Tower and the city wall is an emblematic space located in the heart of the picturesque city of Weimar.

Kasseturm, this famous tower, which has been in history since 1500, is famous as the oldest student club in Germany. Its address, Goetheplatz 10, testifies to its iconic significance. Originally rising on two floors and culminating in a distinctive crenellated tower, today the Kasseturm has become a venue for a variety of cultural events, including concerts, exhibitions and theatre performances.
