Göttingen, a university town in Lower Saxony, Germany, is home to the famous Georg-August-Universität, which was founded in 1737 and became the most visited university of Europe.

The inner city of Göttingen, populated mainly with university students, is an attractive place to live, surrounded with shops, cafes and bars. Göttingen has its own university life folklore, being the most prominent the kissing of the statue of the Gänseliesel (Goose girl) by postgraduate students on their doctorate day.

Prior to the period of German romanticism, a group of German poets that had studied at the Georg-August-Universität between 1772 and 1776, formed the Göttinger Hainbund (circle of poets). Their impact was essential on romanticism in the German-speaking area and on folklore in general.

Since the 1920s, the town has been associated with the revival of interest in the music of Handel. The Göttingen International Handel Festival is held each summer with performances in the Stadthalle Göttingen and a number of churches.
