Bertholdsburg Castle towers up in the center of the small
Thuringian city of Schleusingen in the southernmost foothills of
the Thuringian Forest. The impressive Renaissance site was named
after Berthold VII, the most important member of the House of
Henneberg. Situated on a mountain spur, the striking Renaissance
site can barely be made out from the northeast, but this impression
is misleading with respect to the historical structure of the
castle and city. People approaching the location from the southwest
can still sense the imposing impression that the high walls and
towers of the former center of power of the princely Counts of
Henneberg once made on its visitors. Today, Bertholdsburg Castle
houses the Naturhistorische Museum.
