The ruins of Lobdeburg Castle are among the most impressive and best-preserved Romanesque secular buildings in Thuringia. They are also among the most important cultural monuments in the territory of the independent city of Jena and represent an important local recreation destination for the people of the surrounding area.

A beautiful 🏰 with an interactive museum, the Bridge of Wishes 🍀, and the castle tavern 😋. Events are held here several times a year. The hiking trails around the 🏰 are simply stunning and offer magnificent views 😍.

With its almost completely preserved structure of double walls, moats and defensive towers, it is one of the most fascinating hilltop castles in Germany and rightly bears the sonorous nickname "Queen of the Saale".

The Leuchtenburg Porcelain Worlds are located on 3,000 m2 and lead through seven worlds of experience. Particularly noteworthy are the world's largest porcelain vase at 8 meters high and the world's smallest teapot at 3x3x4 mm, the bridge of wishes where broken pieces bring good luck and the world's only porcelain church. There is also a special exhibition on porcelain design on the top floor of the Porcelain Worlds.

There is very good food, a little higher priced, but worth the money. Since it is only open from Friday to Sunday, you should make a reservation.
