My absolute recommendation is a visit to the fascinating Johanniter Castle in Kühndorf. The well-preserved building fabric with its originality transports everyone back to the Middle Ages. During the tour, visitors can expect interesting exhibits and information.

Located at the foot of the Dolmar mountain, Kühndorf is one of the oldest settlements in the area. The Johanniterburg from the 14th century is particularly impressive.

The Johanniterburg Kühndorf, later also referred to as Kühndorf Castle, was built in 1315 by the Order of St. John on the remains of a previous castle as a fort made of wide residential towers and expanded to the last residence by the Counts of Henneberg. Since 1991 the castle has been renovated from private funds and can be visited. The Johanniterburg Kühndorf is the only private property on the Thuringia Castle Road.
