Highlight • Natural Monument

A staircase made of rock: each step is different. It is a bit narrow, it is steep, but walking up here is also a very special experience.

Goethe Rock

Highlight • Natural Monument

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe was so fascinated by the rock labyrinth that he visited it in 1785 and 1820. He wanted to research how these rock giants were formed. His saying: "The granite won't let me go" became a popular saying. Goethe made extensive sketches and detailed studies of some of the rock formations.

It was a truly …

Nano tour for the kids through the Luisenburg rock labyrinth, everyone knows it, no matter...
