Abandoned site of the Kirchberg Royal Palace From the southern path, there are no steps to reach this site; from the northern path, a short, steep staircase leads up to Marienblick. Only the old cistern remains of the royal palace; otherwise, only uneven ground surfaces remain, which, with a bit of imagination, might reveal some of the original structure.

The Greifberg Castle was located further west on the ridge of the Hausberg. Here, it was the Imperial Palace of Kirchberg.

The ruins of Lobdeburg Castle are among the most impressive and best-preserved Romanesque secular buildings in Thuringia. They are also among the most important cultural monuments in the territory of the independent city of Jena and represent an important local recreation destination for the people of the surrounding area.

Well-preserved castle complex in a wonderful park.

Lobdeburg was first mentioned in 1166. The castle was most likely built by the Lords of Auhausen, appointed by the emperor as ministerials, who named the castle after the town of Lobeda. One reason for this was probably the good experiences that the emperor had already had with other ministerials in the area who belonged to the family group. Shortly afterwards, the branch of the family that lived here called itself “von Lobedeburg”. The construction of the castle was completed in 1185. As a result of the Vogtland War of 1354–57, the imperial rule of the Lobdeburgers came under the suzerainty of the Wettins in 1358. In 1450, Duke Wilhelm of Saxony conquered the castle in the Saxon Civil War. The Puster family owned the castle until 1591. The complex then began to fall into disrepair and the stones were used, among other things, to build the Saale Bridge near Burgau. Source: Wikipedia

The orangery is beautifully designed and has wonderfully fragrant flowers, while the complex itself is perfect for a stroll. Belvedere Palace above the city of Weimar was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1998, along with other buildings of "Classical Weimar". The path below the palace leads you directly to the city park and then to the beautiful old town.
