View of Eichsfeld
Highlight • Viewpoint
The largest towns in the Eichsfeld are the towns of Dingelstädt, Duderstadt, Heiligenstadt and Leinefelde-Worbis as well as the Gieboldehausen area.
The Thuringian district of Eichsfeld derives its name from Eichsfeld.
However, on the one hand this does not include all places of the historic Eichsfeld by a long shot, and on the other hand places that did not originally belong to the Eichsfeld.
Eichsfeld got its special character from the centuries-long island location as part of the archbishopric of Mainz, which is still indicated by the Mainz wheel in the coat of arms.
With a short break between the Reformation and Counter-Reformation, Eichsfeld is Catholic.
Church life in Obereichsfeld remained relatively intact even in the GDR era.
It was the largest region in the GDR with a majority Catholic population.
Even today, the number of regular churchgoers is above the national average. Saint Martin is the patron saint of Eichsfeld.
The unofficial anthem of the Eichsfeld is the Eichsfeldlied written by Hermann Iseke.
