Notgeld of the Week #17! (11/4/2025)
A little 25 Pf. Note from Holzminden!
The reverse has the image of the Luther church in the center of town. Records of the church go as far back as 1506, but there is evidence that there was a church here as far back as the 11th century.
Holzminden also has an interesting impact on the world of Chemistry. Robert Bunsen, the inventor of the Bunsen burner, went to school in Holzminden. Vanillin, the chemical that creates Vanilla's flavour was first synthesized and produced in Holzminden.
