Stadtschloss: A Cultural Epicenter

The Stadtschloss, a hallmark of Weimar's rich history, served as the residence for the Ernestine dynasty for nearly 400 years.

Founded in the 16th century, it was pivotal to the city's artistic development, hosting poets, philosophers, and composers. Currently, it is under renovation since summer 2018, aiming to enhance its cultural offerings and accessibility. The new visitor center is set to open by 2023, along with sections of the castle being opened for free public access.
