Bars & Clubs
Weimar · 5 entries
Weimar's nightlife is shaped by its unique blend of cultural heritage and university town energy. The compact old town packs everything from tradition-rich student clubs to cozy wine bars into a tight radius. The crowd is correspondingly diverse — Bauhaus University students, cultural tourists, and locals share the same counters. Prices are moderate by Thuringian standards.
Student Culture & Live
Kasseturm on Goetheplatz is Germany's oldest student club, operating since 1962 inside a medieval defensive tower — a venue with genuine one-of-a-kind appeal. C-Keller on Am Markt combines alternative bar culture with gallery space and events, and has been doing so for over 28 years.
Pubs & Indulgence
At Havana Club Weimar on Schlossgasse, Cuban flair meets Thuringian hospitality — the venue even runs a small guesthouse. Troedelkneipe on Roehrstrasse is a corner dive with character, run by landlady Petra. Wine lovers and street food fans will appreciate Weinkost on the market square, with its terrace overlooking the old town bustle.
