Because the city was neglected during the eighteenth century, it has retained a large amount of the architecture of that period, which gives the city an untouched Gothic and Renaissance feel. The town is dominated by the University of Marburg, which was founded in 1527.

Marburg (German pronunciation: [ˈmaːɐ̯bʊʁk] or [ˈmaʁbʊʁk] (listen)) is a university town in the German federal state (Bundesland) of Hesse, capital of the Marburg-Biedenkopf district (Landkreis). The town area spreads along the valley of the river Lahn and has a population of approximately 76,000.

Having been awarded town privileges in 1222, Marburg served as capital of the landgraviate of Hessen-Marburg during periods of the fifteenth to seventeenth centuries. The University of Marburg was founded in 1527 and dominates the public life in the town to this day.

Marburg’s heart and soul and the basis of its commercial success is its university, which was founded in 1527 and has been the academic home of political theorist Hannah Arendt, Russian poet Boris Pasternak and German philosopher Juergen Habermas.

In city hall, which dates back to the 16th century, Mayor Spies says it’s fair that BioNTech benefits from the tax cut, but insists the impact of the move will be felt across the city as he seeks to encourage a biopharma cluster in the region.
