The three Dornburg castles are a landmark of the Saale valley and a tourist highlight of the cultural programme. More than 800 years of history are united here. The Old Castle harbours the remains of a medieval castle. The Rococo Castle is a gallant 18th century pleasure palace with a porcelain collection. The Renaissance palace is closely associated with Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.
We take the train from Jena's Paradies station to Dornburg (12-minute journey time) and hike up to the castles from there (approx. 30-minute walk). A visit to the castles and gardens is free of charge. A visit to the museum can be organised individually (admission: €4).
