Hameln gained fame through the legend of the Pied Piper, who was to take care of the local plague of rats in 1284. After the rats had followed the flute melody of the rat catcher into the Weser and drowned, the inhabitants refused however the wages to the man. And so one day he returned in disguise and lured 130 children from the city, who were never seen again, with his melody.

Hameln's programme of events is as much influenced by the Pied Piper saga as the cityscape itself. Especially famous is the Pied Piper open-air game, in which citizens and children of the town play the saga in historical costumes. As in the case of the musical "RATS", the performances of the open-air theatre take place once a week from May to September. The programme of events is rounded off by numerous concerts and the Christmas market.

The Pied Piper House, which has been known as such since 1917, dates back to 1602 and is one of the most famous buildings in the city. The richly decorated Weser Renaissance building stands on Bungelosenstrasse, which is said to have been used by the Pied Piper to lure children out of the town.

Car lovers can look forward to a very special kind of museum in Hameln, because in the automobile museum you can admire a multitude of unique oldtimers, which have been lovingly restored and polished to a high gloss.
