Bad Berleburg
Bad Berleburg, nestled in the forested low mountain landscape of the Rothaargebirge, is a real insider tip for those who want to combine culture, nature, and a stylish convertible tour. The historic town in the Wittgensteiner Land is not only a state-recognized Kneipp spa but also impresses with its princely heritage – foremost the imposing Berleburg Castle, which is still owned by the House of Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg. Those driving through the hilly landscape in a convertible will experience a tour filled with curves, views, and historically significant locations.
Berleburg Castle and Historic Old Town
The baroque castle is the centerpiece of the town and overlooks the historic old town with its well-preserved half-timbered houses and small shops. A guided tour of the castle, which also houses a museum, offers exciting insights into noble residential culture and history. This is a worthwhile stop not only for architecture enthusiasts. The expansive park area also invites for a stroll and provides an ideal break for convertible drivers.
In the old town, there are small cafés, inns with regional cuisine, and charming boutiques – perfect for a relaxed stopover. Those who want to dive deeper into the culture of the region can visit the International Literature Festival or get inspired by one of the many artisans who call this place home.
Driving Pleasure and Nature Experience in the Wittgensteiner Land
The surroundings of Bad Berleburg are just right for an extensive convertible tour: Well-developed country roads lead through vast forests, along idyllic villages, and over gentle ridges. A trip to the Rothaar Ridge, for example via the Rhein-Weser Tower, or a tour along the Wittgensteiner Castle Route, which connects further historical estates like Schloss Schwarzenau, is particularly rewarding. Time and again, panoramic views open up over the wooded heights – and with the top down, the experience of the landscape becomes even more intense.
Active vacationers will also find plenty to enjoy: Numerous hiking and biking trails cross the region, including the famous Rothaarsteig. For relaxed recovery, the Kneipp spa offerings directly in town include thermal baths, Kneipp facilities, and wellness treatments.
Princely Travel with an Open Top
Bad Berleburg offers an excellent mix of princely history, a vibrant old town, and nature-oriented driving enjoyment. Those in search of a less known but particularly charming destination for a convertible tour will find here a place that ideally combines tranquility, style, and driving pleasure.
