The half-timbered house, built around 1670, is a protected monument. It was originally built as a trading yard on the cellar vault of an earlier building that was burned down in the Thirty Years' War.

Cycle Path Along the Cliffs

Highlight • Cycleway

It's very impressive to cycle right next to the cliffs. The cycle path is in good condition, but quite narrow.

Started at 8.30 am in Eisenach. It's going well! We reached our destination for the day, ESW, at 1 pm. So we continued on to Hann Münden - we'll see. Then we stopped in Witzenhausen after about 100 km. Too hot! Back by train!

In my opinion, this is the most beautiful part of the Werra cycle path. It is easy to manage. From asphalt to cobblestones and limestone gravel or natural, everything is in very good, well-maintained condition.

Very nice route on partly old railway lines. There were many rest areas and beer gardens. For a Saturday there was little traffic on the route. Just a little more near the city. This section of the route is particularly recommended.
