ベルルシュテットでの周辺の簡単なハイキングとウォーキング

アンナ・アマリアの時代、そして後の1945年までのナチス時代を思いながら、ここでハイキングする価値があります。

Total horror 😢

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.

Beautiful hiking trail, great for switching off.

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.

A beautiful hiking trail leads straight through the green heart of the region to the Jagdstern (hunting star) above Ettersburg Castle. This detour is highly recommended.

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