アルペルシュテットのおすすめツーリングルート

Cool houses floating on the water and not far from the bike path.

This memorial, which commemorates the 55,000 dead in Buchenwald, stands at the beginning of the Blood Road leading to the camp

It's a great place to relax; the water is illuminated in the evenings.

Reminds us of bad times in German history.

Fresh and delicious water right next to the bike path.

Located right on the path and a very nice and well-maintained building.

Here you can see the obelisk at the beginning of the Blood Road.

The bell tower, also known as the Tower of Freedom until the 1970s, is the 50.73-meter-high tower of the former Buchenwald National Memorial and Memorial Site of the GDR, built between 1954 and 1958. This name was replaced in the 1970s by the title of "bell tower" that has been used ever since. Built of light sandstone, the tower was designed by the sculptor Fritz Cremer and features a 41-meter-high observation platform accessible via two staircases. At the same height as this platform is the Buchenwald bell, which weighs 6.8 tons and, unlike most large bells, is not suspended but mounted on four steel supports. The bell is struck every hour.
