キーッフホイザークライスの山小屋＆キャビン・トップ20

In the middle of the cycle path near St. Wigbert Monastery in Göllingen, there's a sign pointing to an underground, artificially created Wipper Canal.

The castle courtyard on the Kyffhäuser was originally the accommodation and supply base for the over 400 construction workers on the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial. Bruno Schmitz from Berlin, the architect of the Battle of the Nations Monument in Leipzig, was also commissioned to design the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial on the Kyffhäuser. The castle courtyard also originates from his plans: The ground floor is Romanesque in style, made of red sandstone, the upper floor in Scandinavian style, made of wood. The model was Kaiser Wilhelm's hunting lodge in Rominden (East Prussia). Since the opening of the Barbarossa Hall in 1892, guests of the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial have been entertained here in the castle courtyard. And it has been continually expanded. For this reason, the entire complex is listed as a historic monument in the Thuringian monument register. Source: https://www.burghof-kyf.de/ueber-uns/

Nice, quiet place with seating. There is also a mailbox with a "summit book". Unfortunately, it looks as if the place is falling into disrepair and no one is looking after it. The path further up was also overgrown last summer and it was almost impossible to get through.

In 1890, when construction of the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial began, the Burghof was built to supply the construction workers in the quarry directly below the construction site. It is modeled on the imperial hunting lodge in Rominden in East Prussia, which was designed in the Swiss style. The oldest hall, the Barbarossa Hall, was opened in 1892. From May 1, 1951, the Burghof was a convalescent home for the VVB Braunkohleverwaltung Meuselwitz, and from June 1954 it was the FDGB's "Glückauf" convalescent home. After reunification, the Burghof was privatized. In 2003, it was purchased by the current owners and extensively renovated. In April 2004, the beer garden and restaurant were reopened.

Intact ..for all stampers.

A beautiful viewpoint and if bad weather comes along, there is a small house.

Really very nice hut, well maintained, with a summit book. The fully written summit books are in the museum and you can also view them on request

Every step is worthwhile
