If it is a German word that you must master when arriving in this city of 60 000 inhabitants, it is that of Rattenfänger (literally the one who catches the rats). Thanks to this modest language, you will no longer be a stranger at Pitch. The legend, told by the brothers Grimm, tells the story of the little flute player who emptied the city of his rats and is being denied the promised salary. To get revenge, he once again took the magical power of his flute and all the children of the city followed him in the mountains and never returned.In any case, it does not have to rougir the decor that its city offers to the contemporary visitor. Pied is perhaps the most beautiful town in the Weser valley, with a plethora of half-timbered houses or apparent stone houses from the th century. It is a remarkable ensemble of the Weser Renaissance.HistoryIn 800, the abbot of Fulda founded a Benedictine Convent near the village of Height. In the th century, the city was fortified, but these fortifications will be razed to Napoleon's order after the surrender of prussian troops. This destruction will allow the city to expand. Height was largely spared the ravages of the Second World War.
