The regional capital of North Hesse is probably best known for its most famous historical residents; from their home on Schöne Aussicht, Kassel, the Brothers Grimm created some of their most famous fairy tales here. The house is now a museum dedicated to their work full of wonders – but that's not the only reason to take a trip here and hire a car from Kassel.
Its location next to the Habichtswald mountain range allows for a great deal of scenic trips and views to be found. Kassel car hire is a great option for anyone wishing to leave the hustle and bustle of the city in search of that perfect vantage point.
Besides the Brüder Grimm-Museum in the town, there are many more things to see and do during a stay in Kassel. The Bergpark Wilhelmshöhe can be found at the foot of the Habichtswald; this is a natural park and reserve which also displays many exhibits and has many fun attractions. Its natural beauty and range of sculptures has earned it the designation of UNESCO World Heritage Site – so it's definitely worth a visit!
Rent a car from Kassel and the Bergpark as it is easily reachable at just a few kilometres away, as is the Deutsche Märchenstrasse, or Fairy-tale Road which is full of structures that inspired our folk heroes including the original castle from Sleeping Beauty.
