The Henneberg Museum Kloster Veßra is a 6-hectare open-air museum showcasing the history of the monastery, half-timbered architecture, the everyday history of the people of the Henneberg region, and agricultural technology. The museum grounds and the monastery buildings of the Premonstratensian Order are owned by the Thuringian Palaces and Gardens Foundation. There are the Veßra monastery ruins, the half-timbered houses with buildings from the Henneberg region, the largest collection of East German LPG agricultural machinery in Thuringia, a historic hydroelectric power plant with a mill race, exhibitions on the hard daily lives of the people, and a well-tended garden with herb gardens, flower meadows, and old fruit trees.

A visit that is worth it. It is definitely worth seeing. I am impressed. Respect for how much effort goes into keeping everything in order 👍

Nice place to linger with a good information board about the fieldstone.

There is a slightly elevated rest area on the Werra Valley cycle path with a good view of the rock fall from 1595. In that year the entire mountainside broke off and slid into the valley. Incidentally, it is assumed that a collapse occurred as early as 1137.

The Henneberg Museum is an open-air museum on the grounds of the Veßra Monastery. You should plan at least 4 hours for a visit, including a coffee break, but you can easily spend more time here. There is not much to say about the monastery itself. It was founded as a noble monastery for the Henneberg region. Originally, monks and nuns were housed separately here. After a fire, the women's monastery was moved to Trostadt. The monks stayed here. After the monastery was abandoned, it was used as a weapons factory and porcelain factory. In 1939, the monastery church burned down and only a ruin remained. The Veßra Monastery Museum therefore now houses the following exhibitions: - a Henneberg village with houses that can be visited, including furnishings from different periods - history of transport - monastery history - south chapel with the presumed veneration of the Virgin Mary - history of the Henneberg House and the country - agricultural museum with equipment, work steps and large tractors from the GDR and Eastern Europe - a hydroelectric power station that can be visited The café with delicious cakes is particularly recommended. The two cinemas in the south chapel and in the agricultural exhibition were also very interesting. If you like, you can also take an audio tour on your smartphone, but the stations are arranged a bit confusingly.

A lovely little rest area in the middle of the cycle path not far from Veßra Monastery. The towers of the museum in the town can already be seen from here.

Unfortunately, the line of sight to the monastery has become overgrown. I'm afraid that it will stay that way these days 😐.

Unfortunately we had fog and no view of the “Fallen Mountain” ☹️. The second picture is from the afternoon from a different position but shows a similar view.
