Beautiful old post office building

Our Heldburg Forestry District comprises 12 forest districts and is also the southernmost forestry district in the Free State of Thuringia. The Heldburg region, the Gleichberge hills, and the castles of Straufhain and Heldburg are attractive destinations for forest visitors. Our district office in Heldburg is also worth seeing – a building steeped in forestry history. Our forestry district is characterized by extensive oak forests in the south – which is why the oak is the "characteristic tree species" of our district. North of the Werra River, for example around Hildburghausen, coniferous pine and spruce forests predominate, while the "Franconian Threshold" south of the Werra is characterized by beech-rich deciduous forests.

Originally a very beautiful building, but a hiking stamp doesn't belong here.

The gatehouse dates from 1560 and features a stone rebate for the former portcullis and stone hinges on the outer pointed arch portal. The first floor formerly housed the prison. The second floor was added in the 17th century to contain living quarters and a clock mechanism. The small clock bell is located in the arcaded upper story. The defensive wall runs along both sides of the gate, with a former municipal bakehouse and living quarters built onto the left side. Source: Information panel

Always a pleasant reminder of a time that is fortunately history.

Nice activity areas for children, some of them need updating. At the upper end, there's a hut with benches next to it. Further up, until recently, there was a wild boar enclosure.
