A piece of Weimar history
Anyone interested in the history of the “Lost Places” in Thuringia will find a wealth of eerily beautiful places, including the impressive Volkshaus. According to travelicia.de, there are numerous abandoned buildings in Thuringia, such as the Sophienheilstätte in Bad Berka or the Ziemestal Bridge, all of which tell their own story and provide fascinating insights into bygone times.
The Volkshaus is not only the only monument of its kind in Weimar, but is also very popular among the numerous “lost places” in the Free State. These include, among others, the ruins of the Georgenthal monastery and Walter Ulbricht's former guest house, both of which bear witness to Thuringia's eventful history.
