Saale Rapids at Almrich

Highlight • River

A detour from here is also worthwhile to Almerich and possibly to the Bismarck Tower (fantastic view and not far).

Naumburg Old Town

Highlight • Settlement

It's the old (partially restored) houses and the atmosphere of this almost 1,000-year-old town that make you fall in love. The market on market days is especially recommended!

Naumburg (Saale) Town Hall

Highlight • Historical Site

The Radhaus Naumburg is picturesquely on the market and therefore centrally located. Very nice to look at.

Around the old town, visitors will find impressive remains of the old city fortifications. They served as a separation between the town hall and the cathedral city. The Marientor, which is well worth seeing, is the only remaining city gate.

So I took the beautiful route from …
