Overview:
Eisenach,
Germany - The historical city of Eisenach, known as the
gateway to the Thuringian Forest, is located in the heart of
Germany. This city attracts thousands of national and
international travellers every year to its green countryside and
historical buildings, most notably the Wartburg Castle.
This grand, three story castle is closely connected with figures
of great stature such as: protestant reformer Martin Luther,
famed author Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, as well as the
charitable St. Elisabeth. In 1999 the Wartburg Castle was
placed on the UNESCO World Heritage list with many other famous
historical sites. The tales that sprung from this ancient
fortress are the inspiration for Eisenach’s themes for 2006
and 2007.
