Itinerary

Day Four

Wartburg

In the morning we visit Wartburg, another UNESCO World Heritage site, where Luther was secretly kept after his famous refusal to compromise at the Diet of Worms, working on his Bible translation. Wartburg is one of the best preserved medieval castles in Germany. As you enter you see before you a history book some nine hundred years old. In the afternoon we visit the beautiful town of Eisenach where Luther went to school, and where J. S. Bach was born.
