Beautiful village located on the Werra cycle path. On the river, at the weir, you will find a canoe rental. And not far from the bike course, the ruins of the Osterburg tower over the Werra valley.

Werra Gorge near Henfstädt

Highlight • Gorge

The Werra used to flow in a large arc through the valley. With the construction of the Werra Railway, the course of the river was shortened and the path through the rock was blasted. This saved 2 railway bridges over the Werra. The old course of the river can still be seen today.

A new small shelter has been built in the middle of the Werra Valley cycle path, just after Leutersdorf. Like many others, it is always beautifully decorated.

Lange Bahn Ruins

Highlight • Historical Site

Not far from the Lange Bahn mountain hut are the remains of the walls of a large estate. In 1291, more than 700 years ago, the "Lange Bahn" farm was first mentioned in old documents. In it, the owners, the Counts of Henneberg, give the estate to the monks of the Order of St. John. The Berghof owned the brewing, baking and hunting rights and large estates. The residents of the farm always helped the sick and poor in the area. In 1825 the Prussian king ordered the courtyard to be demolished. Most of the stones were used in the houses of the surrounding villages.
