Roswitha-Weg (Germany)
The Roswitha-Weg is a long-distance hiking trail and pilgrimage route located in the state of Lower Saxony, Germany. It connects the cities of Nienburg, which lies on the river Weser, and the historic spa town Bad Gandersheim near the Harz Mountains. It was created in 1973 to commemorate the 1000th year of death of Roswitha of Gandersheim (c. 935 – 973), who is considered the first female german poetess.
