The Liebenstein castle ruins tower high above the city. Currently closed for renovation work.

Is below the castle ruins.

Around 1860, the dukes of Meiningen and their guests used the inner courtyard for the performance of plays.

New permanent exhibition: The Schmalkaldic League - beginning of the schism. Made interesting with short films in which Duchess Elisabeth von Rochlitz tells her story and thoughts. But children don't miss out either. There are stations where small tasks and puzzles can be solved. As in any museum, you have to bring your time, which is worth it.

Around 1860, the dukes of Meiningen used the niche in the rocks to stage plays while they spent their summers at nearby Altenstein Castle. The path to the Felsentheater is still partly paved with stones, so that it could also be used with carriages. An immense effort was made here for a theater in the middle of the forest as a summer pleasure.

The castle was probably built in the High Middle Ages by the Lords of Frankenstein, who resided near Bad Salzungen, as an outpost. After it passed to the Wettin dynasty, the Lords vom Stein zu Altenstein received the castle as a fief and rebuilt it. Hermann vom Stein oversaw its expansion in the Renaissance style around 1599. Around 1800, under the influence of Romanticism, efforts began to restore the now ruined complex. The Dukes of Saxe-Meiningen appreciated its appearance within sight of the landscaped park surrounding their summer residence, Altenstein Castle.

A very beautiful castle, with a beautiful view. The visit is free of charge, but you are welcome to leave a donation at the entrance to the tower.

High above the town of Waltershausen and visible from afar, Tenneberg Castle sits enthroned on the 400 m high castle hill. Thuringian landgraves built the former castle with its horseshoe-shaped floor plan at the end of the 12th century. Over the centuries, Tenneberg has seen many lords and fundamental renovations. It was the court and administrative seat, hunting lodge and summer residence of the Gotha dukes as well as the military center of the former Tenneberg district. Its architecture primarily reflects the architectural styles of the Renaissance and the Baroque. Three baroque rooms are preserved today, of which the ballroom with paintings by the Gotha court painter Johann Heinrich Ritter is the most magnificent. The romantic, arcade-decorated small castle courtyard with the castle café is particularly attractive. Today, the castle is actually a large local history museum, which is known far beyond the country's borders, above all for its extensive doll exhibition.
