Anyone who stands within the high walls of the Bad Hersfeld monastery ruins can appreciate how fascinating the church building, reaching towards heaven, must have seemed to the pilgrims of the Middle Ages. The largest Romanesque church ruin north of the Alps is now particularly known as the venue for the Bad Hersfeld Festival.

Hiking
