    Giebichenstein Castle sits on a rock above the Saale. Built as a bishop's seat in the 12th century and destroyed by fire 400 years later, it is now the most beautiful ruin in the city.

    The first mention took place in 961. The castle is visible from afar and from the top you have a fantastic view of the Saale.
