    Schwarzburg Castle offers an exciting blend of history, impressive architecture, and beautiful nature. Don't miss the Imperial Hall with its imperial portraits, the Princely Armory with its unique collection of weapons, and the magnificent view of the Schwarza Valley.

      The place and Schwarzburg Castle briefly moved back into the center of German history on August 11, 1919, when Reich President Friedrich Ebert and after him all the ministers of his government were relaxing in the Hotel Weißer Hirsch (minister) or in the villa that belonged to the hotel at the time "Schwarzaburg" (Ebert) signed the Weimar Constitution. Where exactly the signing took place in Schwarzburg is still not known for sure. (Source: Wikipedia)
