Weimar is a city in the German federal state of Thuringia. It is not important because of its size (60,000 inhabitants), but because of its history: it is synonymous with the classic age of German literature - the Weimar Classic, when both Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and Friedrich von Schiller resided in the town.
