In 1995, the entire Altenstein Castle and Park complex was transferred to the ownership of the Thuringian Castles and Gardens Foundation.

beautiful views in the park of Altenstein Castle

Altenstein Castle was built in 1736 as a residential palace (country house) for the Dukes of Meiningen and expanded after 1800 as a summer residence. The castle is set in extensive parkland, Altenstein Park. With an area of approximately 160 hectares, it is one of the largest historic parks in Thuringia. The 15-hectare core of the park surrounds the castle, the main attractions, and the adjacent, intensively maintained meadows and borders. This area is enclosed by a protective fence to protect it from wild boar and other wild animals.

Very beautiful and well-kept grounds. The flowerbeds right next to the castle are almost like works of art.

The Liebenstein castle ruins tower high above the city. Currently closed for renovation work.

Around 1860, the dukes of Meiningen and their guests used the inner courtyard for the performance of plays.

The Altenstein Landscape Park is very well maintained and yet fully accessible. Great facility with great highlights and views.

Around 1860, the dukes of Meiningen used the niche in the rocks to stage plays while they spent their summers at nearby Altenstein Castle. The path to the Felsentheater is still partly paved with stones, so that it could also be used with carriages. An immense effort was made here for a theater in the middle of the forest as a summer pleasure.
