Eisenach
Eisenach, located on the western edge of the Thuringian Forest, is a historic gem of great significance. Here, German history meets beautiful nature, making the city a particularly attractive destination for convertible drivers. Whether as a stop on a longer convertible tour through Thuringia or for a weekend getaway, such as on the Thuringian Forest Nature Park Route – Eisenach captivates with culture, landscape, and relaxed driving pleasure.
Driving a convertible between low mountain ranges and history
The approach to Eisenach is characterized by varied routes. Especially beautiful are the paths through the Thuringian Forest, such as from Bad Salzungen, Schmalkalden, or along the Werra. The winding roads through the wooded heights not only offer driving enjoyment but also fantastic views.
The route along the German Half-Timbered House Road from Mühlhausen or coming from Gotha is also very scenic and leads through small villages, fields, and gentle hills – ideal for a relaxed drive with the top down.
Eisenach – Wartburg, Luther, and music
In Eisenach itself, hardly any route leads past the Wartburg – a site of global significance where Martin Luther translated the New Testament into German. Located high above the city, it is not only historically significant but also a real eye-catcher. The climb is worth it for those who want to combine culture and views.
The Bach House, the Luther House, and the historic old town also offer much for culture enthusiasts. Cafés, small shops, and beautiful squares invite you to linger – perfect for a break after the drive or before the next stretch.
Eisenach – The perfect starting point for tours through Thuringia
Eisenach is ideally located for excursions in all directions: Whether through the heights of the Thuringian Forest, along the Werra, or on the Classic Road towards Weimar and Erfurt – the surroundings offer a variety of dreamy routes that will delight convertible fans. The mix of culture, nature, and driving pleasure makes Eisenach a true insider tip for explorers with an open roof. Eisenach is also part of the Road of German Unity.
