    The statue was built in 1883. Picturesquely located on the rock, directly on the Saale bike path.

      A remnant of Thalstein Castle, whose park lies directly on the slope behind it. There are still avenues in the forest and other monuments, sometimes only as rudiments. The Erlkönig survived - the castle fell into disrepair until the current owner was even awarded the 'black sheep of monument preservation' status.

      The pond belonging to the Erlkönig is always cleaned. The gypsum veins in the rock can be seen very clearly here.

        Nice area to relax. The Erlkönig poem can also be found there. Greetings from Goethe! 😉 Since there are now also new bike paths, a detour to the Erlkönig is always worthwhile.
