Ebergötzen in southern Lower Saxony, the "hometown" of Max and Moritz, is best known for the water mill, which served as a template for the Max and Moritz story by Wilhelm Busch. Wilhelm Busch spent several years in Ebergötzen during his childhood and had all kinds of adventures with the miller's son, to which he later set a graphic and literary monument with Max and Moritz. Thanks to the Wilhelm-Busch-Mühle, Ebergötzen is located on the German fairy tale routethat of Heiligenstadt with the nearby Devil's pulpit and the Hanstein Castle leads to Ebergötzen and from there to Plesse Castle near Göttingen.
The European Bread Museum has also had its headquarters in Ebergötzen for a number of years.
The small town, whose roots go back to the later desolate Radolfshausen office, is halfway between Göttingen and Herzberg am Harz on the B27.
