Interesting old castle. Tour only in German for 9 Euros per person. One of the highlights was a room in which Martin Luther took refuge for nearly a year.

Loved this Castle, most especially the rooms where Martin Luther hid out and translated the New Testament into German - all in all a great visit, the castle has an imposing position on top of a hill. and is very well preserved and maintained. The guided tour was very informative. also enjoyed the great hall. Highly recommended as a key... More

We spent most of the afternoon wandering around this really interestingh fortress.

The interior is beautifully decorated and the museum has... More

While living here under an assumed name, he translated the Greek Scriptures, commonly called the "New Testament," into German, which was a great... More

I came to Eisenach for no other reason than to visit the Wartburg, where Luther began translating the Bible. The castle is nice and very scenic, it offers a nice walk back to town through the woods and many surrounding trails and nice views. But timings are confusing. The last guided trip is at 5pm, and the castle gates close... More

Awesome experience! Good guided tour (check ahead of time for when English speaking tours occur!) Beautiful castle with much historical significance.
