Schönburg Colored Sandstone Cliffs

Highlight • Natural Monument

The red sandstone can be found all over Schönburg. The sequence of layers is almost 90 m. It is worth taking a tour of the lower town.

Schönburg Castle (Schönburg on the Saale)

Highlight • Castle

The castle looms over the Saale, so from the castle tower you have a wonderful view of the Saale floodplain to Naumburg or along the Saale to Goseck Castle.
The food in the Burgschänke is also recommended.

Sandstone Cliffs

Highlight • Natural Monument

The rocks along the path tell a story: of messages carved into them, towing aids and, last but not least, the Saale, which first carved out the rock.
