Teufelchen New
May 31, 2026, View of Burg Gleichen

The Gleichen Castle became known through the legend of the "twice-wed" Count of Gleichen, who returned from the crusade with a second wife. As proof of that medieval bigamy, there is a tomb slab in Erfurt Cathedral. On it, the bed of a man with two women is depicted. The Gleichen Castle (first mentioned 1089) was the seat of the Counts of Gleichen from 1139 to 1537. Due to its location on the medieval trade route "via regia", it gained great strategic importance. Therefore, it was frequently besieged, attacked, and partially destroyed. However, the Counts of Gleichen always rebuilt it. That is why today the castle features building parts from different centuries. The castle complex is 60 m wide and surrounded by a defensive wall ring 105 m long. At the end of the 19th century, a viewing platform was set up in the keep, from which one has a fantastic view of the entire Drei Gleichen area.

A really good trail with many challenging sections. It's really fun. Ride from east to west for the descent ;-). Technically, the climb is also a nice challenge.

The trail is fun. It's not technically challenging, but you can gain a good amount of speed. It's best ridden from east to west.

The market with its old buildings in Arnstadt is a great eye-catcher.

Heinrich August Trinius was a German writer. He was also known as an itinerant writer. His greatest achievement was that he triggered the Rennsteig boom of the Kaiser Wilhelm era with his book "The Rennsteig of the Thuringian Forest" in 1890.
