    Hiking

    Tourists interested in culture should explore the center of Heiligenstadt. Particularly popular: the Theodor Storm Literature Museum, the Eichsfelder Heimatmuseum, the baroque Mainz Castle on Friedensplatz or the Klausmühle. The house, built in 1748, stands where the birthplace of the famous carver Tilman Riemenschneider once stood.

    The city impresses with its numerous churches and chapels. The magnificent St. Marien Church with its two octagonal portal towers or the St. Anne's Chapel with one of the oldest figures of Mary in Eichsfeld are among the most popular tourist destinations in Heiligenstadt.

    Hiking

    The historic city center with its three Gothic churches, the baroque secular buildings, but also the Eichsfeld local history museum with its town history and the "Theodor Storm" literature museum are distinctive.

    Due to the town's attractive location in the Leine valley, surrounded by long mountain ranges, hikers and cyclists can enjoy numerous tours in the area around the town, also thanks to a well-developed network of cycle and hiking trails.
