Kunitzburg Ruins

Highlight • Castle

Beautiful castle ruins with a wonderful view. There are various hiking trails to the Kunitzburg. It is recommended to just walk along the horseshoe, then you come to the beautiful Jenzig.

View of Kunitz and Kunitzburg

Highlight • Viewpoint

Gently rolling valley, from Kunitz to Lasaan. Probably one of the most dreamy and romantic places in Thuringia. No matter what time of year. Always pure magic.
