Tips for the summer vacations 2023 in Mühlhausen/Thuringia

Exploration on the city wall, organ devotion in the Bach church, public city tours and hiking as well as cycling are vacation offers for 2023

The historic old town of Mühlhausen with its lovingly restored half-timbered houses and town houses, eleven Gothic churches and museums offers many opportunities for discovery.

Tip number 1 is the walk along a section of the completely preserved city wall ring starting at the Inner Frauentor. The climb to the Rabenturm is rewarded with a panoramic view of the city. Under the motto "On the wall, on the lookout", families can discover a lot of history in a small space - city history from the Middle Ages to the present day. A visit that is worthwhile! The historical fortification is open daily from 10:00 to 17:00 and belongs to the Mühlhausen museums with other museum facilities.

Tip number 2 is the organ devotion in the parish church Divi Blasii, as the place of work of Johann Sebastian Bach. Every Wednesday at 12:00, between Pentecost and Thanksgiving, you can listen to the Schuke organ during a small organ devotion. The church is open daily, except Monday from 10:00 to 17:00.

Tip number 3 is a 1.5 -hour public guided tour through the historic old town of Mulhouse, which is always offered on Monday, Wednesday, Saturday, Sunday and public holiday at 11:00. Meeting point is at the Tourist Information, Ratsstraße 20 in Mulhouse. The team of the Tourist Information is happy about a prior registration.

Tip number 4 is the Mühlhausen city forest. Along various paths, such as the Luther Trail, Hainichland Trail, Mühlhäuser Landgraben and the Loccum-Volkenroda Pilgrimage Trail, you can discover flora and fauna. The redwood trees growing here are an attraction. Well-developed bike paths, such as the Unstrutradweg and Unstrut-Werra-Radweg offer further opportunities to get active.
