Latest Eisenach hotel reviews
ATLC Says: Almost a castle village, spread out on a high hill top overlooking Eisenach. Here's where Martin Luther translated the New Testament from Latin to German in a very short time.I visited here in 2009 and made my Wartburg page here
ATLC Says: When visiting Eisenach it is inevitable that you visit the town house where the Bach museum is situated. The myth is carefully kept alive that 'it is said to have been the house where J.S. Bach was born'. However, it isn't. It's just one house that was like one that Bach...
Beautiful forested path to Wartburg Castle
MD2nd Says: First I like to mention that I didn't take a tour in/around the Wartburg Castle itself as I haven't felt attracted enough. I yet took the long HIKE UP to Wartburg Castle's, a most beautiful forested slope, I really enjoyed. To me this hike - very lonely path through...

magor65 Says: J.S. was associated with many German towns, but Eisenach as his birthplace and the place where he spent his childhood years, takes a special position in his biography.Born in 1685 as the son of John Ambrosius Bach - a town musician, John Sebastian was baptised in St George's...
magor65 Says: The Nicholas Gate and adjacent Nicholas church make a very photogenic couple.The church dating back to 1180 is said to be the last Romanesque church built in Thuringia. It used to be the parish church for the Benedictine convent which had existed here before the Reformation....
magor65 Says: I entered St. George's church just because it was on our way across the market square, only then did I realize its significance.St. George's church is strictly connected with the history of Eisenach and its most outstanding personages.It was here (strictly speaking in the...
magor65 Says: Althugh the Wartburg castle is undoubtedly the greatest tourist attraction of Eisenach, the city itself is also worth visiting. After all, it was a birthplace of J.S. Bach and the place where M. Luther spent his childhood, so we are sure to find the traces of their lives...

Sausage booth of Fleischerei Uth: Delicious Thuringian sausage
MD2nd Says: Though I haven't been at Wartburg Castle itself I yet did hike up there, and after my sporty-sweaty effort, I thought that little sausage booth, came perfectly to handy: providing with great, fresh made, fantastic smelling sausages, and hot coffee! This little sausage stand...

ATLC Says: On our last visit I had already noted the many beautiful grand old villas in Eisenach. I had not noticed, however, how many there really were. It was only because we stayed at Villa Bomberg, in the 'Villa Quarter' that I realised I need perhaps the better part of a day (next...

Market place of Eisenach. We visited this charming town in Thuringia twice, in 1997 and in 2007. From here, we visited the Wartburg, and we also made a city tour in the footsteps of J.S. Bach.
