In the autumn of 1806, world history was made here on these heights northwest of Jena. Directly behind the Landgrave's house lay the Jena-Auerstedt battlefield, the site of the fighting between Prussian troops and Napoleon in October 1806. The Napoleon Stone, which, like the museum in nearby Cospeda, commemorates this event over two hundred years ago, is located here.

Another stop on the Napoleon Trail with a bench at the Napoleon Stone. Here you have a wonderful panoramic view 😎

Ignoring the Prussian ultimatum, Napoleon marched with approximately 160,000 men from Bavaria to Thuringia toward Berlin between October 7 and 13, 1806. On the afternoon of October 13, Napoleon, standing on the Windknollen, spotted the enemy firing positions on the Dornberg and ordered all available troops to take up positions overnight on the Landgrafenberg. The Prussian commanders never expected the French artillery with its heavy cannons to climb the steep mountain.

From down here you have a great view of the Dornburg Castles and the panoramic path directly in front of them.

I was very impressed by this perspective!

The town hall on the west side of the market square was completed in 1841, after the previous Renaissance building from the 16th century burned down. The building's line was set back 20 meters to the west to enlarge the market square. Two Renaissance portals are still preserved inside the new building. The facades are characterized by Gothic forms with pointed arch windows, pilasters, and cornices. The central tower crowns the market square façade and was given a carillon made of Meissen porcelain in 1987. The town hall entrance is particularly emphasized by a balcony porch. The building houses the mayor's offices, conference rooms, the city archives, and the wedding room of the registry office. https://www.weimar-lese.de/sehenswuerdigkeiten/gebaeude/rathaus/

From the bridge there is a very nice view of the Dornburg castles and the Saale.

Beautiful town hall with balcony and carillon on the large market square. Renovation recently completed - it still shines in the new bright color. Tip: if the weather is nice, go to the market square in the evening and enjoy the sunset over the town hall with a nice beer in one of the restaurants on the market square.
