The Creuzburg was one of the residence places of the Ludowinger and preferred residence of the landgrave Elisabeth of Thuringia, who became the German "national saint" of the Middle Ages as Saint Elisabeth. She also gave birth to her son Hermann in 1222 at the castle.

Nestled in the rolling hills of Thuringia, Creuzburg lies like a peaceful jewel in a picturesque valley, with the proud Creuzburg Castle towering above it.

Former monastery, which was expanded to the castle.
Well preserved curtain wall, residential tower and gates.
Today, there are a museum and a hotel with a restaurant in the walls.
Up there with a bike can be difficult - do you have an engine? ;) - but it's worth it!
