The hilltop castle complex of Neuenburg Castle, located on the Romanesque Road, was once the largest castle of the Landgraves of Thuringia. Its construction, under the direction of Count Ludwig von Schauenburg of Ludowingen, known as Ludwig the Springer (1042 to 1123), began around 1090 with the first circular walls, which still stand today up to a height of eight meters in the inner castle. Over the next hundred years, the castle was reinforced and expanded in several stages. From around 1400, the castle underwent extensive rebuilding in the Gothic style, and large parts of the Romanesque structure were lost. After losing its military importance, the castle was converted into a hunting lodge for the Dukes of Saxe-Weissenfels, for which purpose a zoo and pleasure garden were created in the forest to the east. Today, Neuenburg Castle is managed by the Saxony-Anhalt Cultural Foundation.

I liked the cycle path here and it was properly marked.

Museum & Exhibitions High above the wine-growing town of Freyburg lies Neuenburg, the sister castle of Wartburg, founded around 1090 by the Thuringian Count Ludwig the Springer. The first mighty complex was built by 1150. The rise of the Landgraves of Thuringia was accompanied by further magnificent expansion. By 1230, Neuenburg was already around three times as large as Wartburg! The Romanesque double chapel built around 1170/75 is still an architectural gem today. On behalf of Hermann I, Heinrich von Veldeke completed the Eneasroman around 1185, the first Middle High German knightly-courtly verse epic ever. Neuenburg experienced the end of its high medieval heyday under Landgrave Ludwig IV and his wife, Saint Elisabeth.

The origin of Neuenburg is linked to Count Ludwig the Springer of Schauenburg, who was also responsible for the founding of Wartburg. One theory is that the name Neuenburg was chosen to distinguish it from the somewhat older Wartburg. The son of Ludwig the Springer was Ludwig I, the first Landgrave of Thuringia, from 1131 onwards, and during the 116 years of the Ludowinger Langraves, the castle was an important part of the court and some of the building structure dates from that time. With the extinction of the Ludowingers in 1247 and after the subsequent War of Succession, the Landgraviate passed to the Wettins, who were already Margraves of Meissen and later Dukes and Electors of Saxony at that time. Neuenburg was therefore no longer an outstanding place of residence within the Saxon state territory. Nevertheless, there was a lot of building activity and use as a hunting lodge in the 15th and 16th centuries.

Goseck Castle is a real landmark. You can also see it from the train.

The castle and the castle tavern also regularly offer cultural events. You should definitely visit the Castle Church... Well worth seeing.

You can cycle wonderfully to the left and right of the river, so "laps" are also possible
