At this point take a rest and look at the Veste without haste. If you come from Rieth and take the shortcut in the direction of the Westhausen reservoir, you will pass it directly.

Like a fairytale castle, Veste Heldburg towers over the beautiful southern Thuringian landscape on a wooded hilltop. The castle complex probably dates back to the 12th century.
Of particular importance is the redesign of Veste Heldburg under Duke George II of Saxony-Meiningen based on the model of the Bavarian Neuschwanstein Castle in the 19th century. Battlemented terraces and dreamy towers cast a spell over visitors.
