The appeal of Thuringia as a holiday region lies in its diversity. Here nature and culture are treasured above all else, and the memory of Luther, Bach, Schiller and Goethe is still very much alive. Thuringia, whose regional capital is Erfurt, is situated in the geographical centre of Germany. Visitors can look forward to unwinding in the unspoilt countryside, exploring fascinating castles and palaces, finding rest and relaxation at a spa or wellness hotel, or discovering medieval towns with a varied cultural scene. The Thuringian Forest more than lives up to such expectations, as do Eisenach and Erfurt or any of the multitude of health resorts in the region.
