ハルバーシュタットの絶景の山頂・トップ16

Simply stunningly beautiful

Who dares to climb the rocks?

The Counts of Regenstein had the control room built around 1250. It served as a signal tower for their Landwehr system and as a protection tower for the Counts of Blankenburg. The round tower was built from shell limestone quarry stone with gypsum mortar, has a wall thickness of 1.2 m, is around 4.4 m in diameter and is 12.5 m high. Its viewing platform, which is 9.2 m high, can be reached via an internal staircase with 44 steps. A restoration took place between 2006 and 2008/2009. Source: Wikipedia

The largest viewing rock on the ridge path is easy to climb thanks to the ascent aids.

The large Papenberg is not so well known and is somewhat hidden, but it is worth a detour at any time of the year. Numerous bizarre rock cliffs with attractive views of the surrounding area await you there

Beautiful vantage point with a view of the Harz foothills. The only thing that bothers me is the noise from the street.

Quedlinburg Castle rises up next to the St. Servatius Collegiate Church on the Stiftsberg hill, which impressively overlooks the World Heritage town of Quedlinburg. Extensive renovation and construction work is currently underway on the buildings of the former women's convent. Visitors will soon be able to enjoy a completely redesigned museum tour through the impressive ensemble of the collegiate church, church treasury and living and representation rooms. The castle museum is not open during the construction period, but the climb up the castle hill is still worthwhile. The St. Servatii Collegiate Church, with its important cathedral treasury and the burial place of King Henry I in the Romanesque crypt, can be visited. A walk through the collegiate gardens on the mountain plateau offers an enchanting view of the historic half-timbered town of Quedlinburg, which can also be enjoyed in the cozy atmosphere of the Schlosskrug restaurant.

The residential buildings of the castle, i.e. the palace, have been rebuilt many times over the centuries. Only the interior of the medieval castle at the time of the monastery's heyday has remained in its original form. The first stone residential buildings were probably built in the 10th century. In 1928, the city of Quedlinburg acquired the palace and opened the museum in the north wing on May 8, 1929. It is currently closed for renovation.
