エッタースブルクのおすすめMTBライド

教会は、おそらくヴァイマールで最も古い入植地であるヤコブの丘（Jakobshügel）の上にあります。 1168年にはすでにこの場所に巡礼教会が奉献されていました。ヴァイマールはサンティアゴ・デ・コンポステーラへのヤコブの道（Jakobsweg）の宿場町だったからです。現在の建物は、老朽化した前身の建物を解体した後の1712/13年に建てられた、単身廊のバロック様式の教会です。教会の塔には登ることができます。かつての塔守の住居からは、ヴァイマールの旧市街の最も美しいパノラマビューの1つを楽しむことができます。

Buchenwald Concentration Camp, officially KL Buchenwald, was one of the largest concentration camps on German soil. It operated as a forced labor camp on the Ettersberg hill near Weimar between July 1937 and April 1945. A total of approximately 277,800 people from 50 countries were imprisoned in Buchenwald during this period.[1] The death toll is estimated at around 56,000, including 15,000 Soviet citizens, 7,000 Poles, 6,000 Hungarians, and 3,000 French citizens.[2] As the 3rd US Army approached on April 11, 1945, the prisoners took control of the camp from the retreating SS, arrested 125 of the guards, opened the gates, and raised a white flag.

If you are here, you should also stop at the memorial.

Duke Wilhelm Ernst of Saxe-Weimar, who enjoyed hunting in the Ettersberg forests, had the hunting lodge built between 1706 and 1712. In 1999, a trail cut through the park 250 years earlier was uncovered. This "trail of time" leads from the castle to the present-day memorial on the grounds of the Buchenwald concentration camp. At this point, a pleasant rest area with a view of the castle is arranged in a star shape, from which hunting trails branched off in all directions even then.

This beautiful villa was once the Hotel Victoria. It was built in 1888. The owner was a merchant named E. Reisen. In 1916, it was officially converted into the Hotel Victoria, along with an annex built in 1850. During the GDR era, it housed the Poliklink Nord (Northern Policlinic). Today, it is a commercial building, including an office of the Debeka insurance company. The building is listed as a cultural monument in Weimar. https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl-August-Allee_16

Nature is slowly recovering and creating wonderful biotopes.

A magnificent moated castle that needs some TLC. Definitely worth a photo opportunity.

A truly beautiful place to linger and enjoy a small or large picnic with a magnificent view of Ettersburg Castle. 🤗🌞
