Quedlinburg is a town on the river Bode north of the Harz Mountains in the district of Harz in Saxony-Anhalt.
First mentioned in a document in 922 and granted town charter in 994, the town was the seat of the royal palatinate of secular rulers visited at Easter from the 10th to the 12th century and of a ladies' convent for almost 900 years.
In the historic old town with its cobblestone streets, winding alleys and small squares are a good 2000 half-timbered houses from eight centuries.
