Beautiful section of the Unstrut cycle path between the Arche and Nebra, directly along the Unstrut river.

Exhibition in an extraordinary building. At the center is, of course, the discovery of the Nebra sky disk and its connections. You should plan 1-2 hours for the exhibition and the film in the planetarium. Those who can't take any more should refresh themselves in the café. There are drinks, small meals, and cakes. Admission (as of 04/26) Adults €9.50. A look into the UFO or the find spot of the Nebra sky disk with an observation tower about 3 kilometers away is also recommended.

Early on Sunday mornings, you can quietly ride your racing bike here. Later, when the weather is nice, it gets as crowded as the Autobahn.

The picturesque Lake Süße See lies between vineyards and orchards. Several beaches around the lake offer swimming, and even surfing and sailing are possible.

Seeburg is dominated by the widely visible castle of the same name, which rises majestically on a peninsula above the Süßer See. It is the western part of an old, very large refuge castle. Since the end of the 1990s, the castle has been in divided private ownership, and the owners have changed several times. This has meant that the castle has not yet been renovated, stands empty, and is falling into disrepair. The widow's tower and the castle church, on the other hand, have been renovated and are owned by an orchard estate. They are used as a residence, for holiday apartments, as a registry office, and for concerts. With the new construction of the orangery on the lake promenade, another step towards tourist use has now been taken; with the architecturally sophisticated new building, year-round operation is possible.
