Anger Square, Bad Frankenhausen

Highlight • Settlement

Here on the Anger there are some hotels, ice cream parlors and also benches to sit on, but it is very stone-heavy. It's a matter of taste, but I would have liked a little more green.

Built during the period of the "National Monuments", which had its heyday in the 19th century. The Kyffhäuser Monument is one of the largest of its kind in Germany, along with the Walhalla in Regensburg.

View of Kyffhäuser Monument from Kauksberge

Highlight • Viewpoint

From this rest area on the almost 453 meter high Kautsberge you also have a great view of the Kyffhäuser Monument and the castle courtyard. The perfect place for a little picnic!

View of Tilleda and Kyffhäuser Monument

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Goldene Aue stretches out like a painting, and most importantly: the beautiful views are well-maintained, so you can actually see something. ☝️🤣
