The heart of the old town is the Obermarkt with the town hall, crowned by three turrets. Like many of today's listed buildings, the structure has been repeatedly added to and altered: Construction began around 1300, it was extended to the south in 1432, the half-timbered construction with the three towers was added in 1532, and only around 1674 was the town hall completed with a baroque external staircase. Also on the Obermarkt stands the St. Cyriakus Church, popularly known as the "Eichsfelder Dom". The Catholic house of worship, with its rich inventory and two imposing towers, was built between 1240 and 1490. This makes it one of the oldest buildings in Duderstadt.

Huge and massive, built of stone, the tower is located very close to Göttingen. Depending on the route, reaching it can be strenuous. It's open until 6 pm on weekends and public holidays. It also looks beautiful at night when it's illuminated.

A beautiful, shady bike path. Partially equipped with information boards and points of interest. Easy to ride, but the signage could be better. Tip: Plan ahead on Komoot and use your navigation system/mobile phone as well.
