Bike Touring Highlight
The Leuchtenburg is one of many historic buildings, which you can see on the Saale Cycle Path closer, sometimes from afar. Here the eye moves with!

One of the most beautiful castles in Thuringia lies high above the Saale Valley - the Leuchtenburg, also known as the "Queen of the Saale Valley". It grants its visitors a wide panoramic view from the Harz to the Thuringian Forest. Within its walls, in a rare originality, it houses a unique museum on Thuringian porcelain and its 800-year history. The porcelain town of Kahla is located at the foot of the castle. It impresses with the historic city center and a valuable, preserved medieval town plan.

If you consider how the castles are lined up along the Saale and are aware of their history, this view of the Leuchtenburg is simply beautiful to look at and an indication that you are approaching Kahla. 😁 At least that's how it is for me. The view up works.
