Atracciones turísticas en el Odenwald

Odenwald Essentials

The Odenwald region spans the borders of Hesse, Bavaria, and Baden-Württemberg, defined by its mix of medieval history and unique geology. This collection features the Renaissance ruins of Heidelberg Castle and the hilltop Frankenstein Castle, legendary for its gothic associations. Natural highlights include the Felsenmeer in Lautertal, a massive field of quartz diorite boulders, and the Königstuhl peak. The region is also home to significant architectural monuments, from the timber-framed structures of Michelstadt to the 19th-century engineering of the Himbächel Viaduct.
