The Church of Our Lady. Though some archeologists consider St Elizabeth's Cathedral in Marburg to be a little bit older, the Church of Old Lady (The Liebfrauenkirche), which together with the cathedral creates the marvelous complex, might be the oldest gothic church in Germany. It was built on the south basement of the former double church of Roman epoch. The building works started in 1235 in archbishop Theodorich's time and ended in 1260 during the rule of his successor Arnold Ysenbergk. Near the church you'll find decorated with coats of arms Bishop's Palace (1786).

Impetrator's terms. Impetrator's terms (Kaiserthermen) were built in the 4th century and nowadays they are used for open-aired exhibitions. The Roman terms resemble a lot present saunas. You were to wash there from time to time changing hot water for cold; in the end you also were to have a swim in a pool with cold water. The body care finished with massage and gymnastics. But the terms had another very important function: it was a meeting place. There even was a rich library there. Slaved and freedmen did massage and did the rooms up. By the way, Impetrator's terms in Tier were never used according to their intended purpose (even by the Imperator, for whom they were created). After the Roman epoch the terms served as the Castle of Frank duchy, later – as the bastion in the medieval city wall.
