At the Frauentor there is access to the almost completely preserved city wall, which can be walked from here at about 330 meters. The view from the associated raven tower of the city and the Frauentor is wonderful.

Thank you😃The sculptures are on the bike path, often further back in the forest🤓we had to turn around on the bike several times because we saw a sculpture too late🥲

Today we rode the first section of the Unstrut cycle path. Mostly asphalt, so the bikes rolled by themselves. There were short breaks in Dachrieden at the church and at the weir in Mühlhausen.
First test of my little one's new bike: passed!
And now on to bigger tours 😅
