Wartburg castle overlooking Eisenach


The castle on top of Eisenach town was a place I wanted to visit for some time. While you could go very close to the top by car, it was nice that we accidentally walked through a steep hill in a forest to get to the top. The mere imagination of waking up to the perfect view in a bedroom here was fantastic.


But of course the highlight of the castle tour, which came unexpectedly at the very end, was the room where Martin Luther stayed in 1521-1522 when he translated the bible. I of course tried to breath in the same air as much as possible.
