Mühlburg

The castle ruins of the Mühlburg on the southern edge of the Thuringian Basin, together with the castle ruins in Gleichen and the Wachsenburg, form the probably most famous castle ensemble in Germany, the Drei Gleichen. The name "Gleichen" comes from the Celtic word "like" for rocks or the topographically similar situation of the castles on three cone-shaped mountains. The transfer of the name to the entire castle group has been documented since the 18th century. However, the three systems never had a common owner. Incidentally, the Mühlburg is the oldest castle in Thuringia.
Admission: € 2.00 (as of 2018)

The most unassuming of the three equals has become a highlight in the years following the fall of the Wall. With 2, - € admission for adults and 1, - € for children, it is also very attractive for families.

In every season a beautiful panorama.

The hike to the Mühlberg is really nice. From here you have a great view of Wachsenburg and the castle Gleichen.

Beautiful ruin from which one has a good view of the surrounding area. Those who have enough time can come to the Ratskeller in Mühlberg

OPEN!
The Gleichen Castle including the outdoor area and the Mühlburg Castle Museums are only open daily from March to October from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. There is a lot to discover on the Mühlburg in the outdoor area.

Very beautiful castle, ideal excursion destination, easily accessible on foot or by bike, numerous seating options and perfect for resting with a wonderful view.

Very beautiful castle ruins with a great view 👍🏻 always worth a visit

The Mühlburg, also called Mühlberg, on a 375 m above sea level. NN high spur of the castle over the village Mühlberg is the oldest castle of the three peers and is considered the oldest surviving building in Thuringia. Wikipedia

Again, there is not much to see, but you have a nice view.

Visit the "Spring" in Mühlberg. Is an ice cream café which in addition to the usual products also has a beer garden, sausage stand, playground and a spring, the "Spring" has to show.

Visiting the "Drei Gleichen" is always an absolute highlight. I find the Mühlburg very nice because you can also walk around outside. The view from the tower is of course magnificent. You can also sit down in the courtyard, take a break and enjoy the view.

Beautiful ruin with an amazing view.
