A castle with a campsite is rarely found. Yet this small, fine one is special among the motorhome pitches. Being mobile is a must here, as there is no catering. But plenty of space for guests in the green. The entire area around the castle is worth seeing.

The beautiful Schmalkalden train station, with its half-timbered facade, is a real eye-catcher. It is the main station in the Thuringian town of Schmalkalden. Other stations include Auehütte, Schmalkalden University of Applied Sciences, Mittelschmalkalden, Niederschmalkalden, and Wernshausen.

The bridgehead towards Breitungen and the associated route were started between 1938 and 1940 as part of the Reichsautobahn 85 ( https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strecke_85 ) but were never completed and were only used much later for the B19.
