Overview

Welcome to Eisenach, that impressed even Goethe who called this hilly and small town a marvelous place. The town sits at the foot of Wartburg Castle, now one of Germany’s most famous castles and a Unesco World Heritage site and it is famous for its association with Martin Luther and Saint Elizabeth of Thuringia. Eisenach is also the birthplace of Johann Sebastian Bach, where he attended the same school as Martin Luther had. Let’s discover this and more in a walking tour where you can admire all the highlights of this charming
town!

When Martin Luther was a teenager, he was sent to school in Eisenach (1498-1501) and boarded with the Cotta family. Their beautifully preserved half-timbered house is now a Luther museum. The two rooms he lived in are restored to their original condition.Prepare your cameras because it’s time to visit the most famous tourist attractions of the city - St.George's Church. This medieval church witnessed the baptism of J. S. Bach in 1685 and the marriage of 14 year old Saint Elizabeth in 1221. Members of the Bach family were the church organists for 132 years. Martin Luther was a choirboy here; he also preached in the church on his way to and from the Diet of Worms in 1521.Next we shall pass by Preachers' Church, the former 13th century cloister where Luther and J. S. Bach went to school. Now it’s time to learn more about the life and work of a genius- Richard Wagner. Reuter-Wagner Museum is the biggest exhibit of Wagner memorabilia, including his death mask.Eisenach also has a century-old automotive tradition – the world’s first BMW rolled off the local assembly line in 1929. So, we will next visit the Automobile Welt Museum, for one of a kind collection of antique cars, Wartburg and BMWs. Eisenach's factory produced cars for more than 100 years. At the end of the tour your guide will make sure that you don't miss the “Tiny House”, the narrowest, inhabited, half-timbered house in Germany, only 6 feet, 8 inches wide (2 meters).
