Anyone who has climbed up from the upper town to the castle when the weather is nice will do it again and again.

Nice entrance to the castle. With many stairs!
The Schloßsteig, formerly the Judengasse, is a connecting street between the Wettergasse and the Mainzer Gasse. At the upper end of the Schloßsteig is the small Willy-Sage-Platz.
There were Jews in old Marburg as early as the thirteenth, maybe even the twelfth century. Around 1280 there was already a small synagogue in Marburg, but it was destroyed in the great Marburg fire in 1319. In 1320 a new building was erected on the same spot, today's Willy-Sage-Platz. In 1452 the synagogue was then destroyed. In 1993, some well-preserved remains of this old synagogue were discovered by chance during excavations. In order to permanently protect the remains of the old synagogue, a glass cube was erected over the excavation site in 2002.
