There is a nice route to here from Stolberg, takes about 3 - 4 hours there and back. good view along the way and the cross itself is impressive and worth the climb to the top. If you are staying locally remember to bring your tourist card the hotel gives you as you can get discount on entry. otherwise was 10euro for 4
Only sad that the cafe next to it closed at 16:00 (4pm). Amazing view. Definitely worth it.
Great view from the top. Nice little restaurant next to the tower. It's a good hike from Stolberg if you'd like to walk
Lovely place. Take cash if you want to climb the tower.
Nice walk up the hill towards the cross, very high cross, very far seeing. Nice view 🤩 not for people with fear of heights. Next to the cross a place to eat.
Although the cross itself is a nice landmark and has spectacular views if you climb it, the walk up to the cross is already very much worth it!

Wether you are Lutheran or simply going to the Parent's Home to learn about the region, it is worth a visit. With the castle facing the museum on the hill and part of the original Luthers house still standing, a local heritage has been preserved there. The museum is very well made for children or elderly with a lot of space and benches along the exhibition. The content is highly interesting, especially the findings of artefacts from the daily life of Martin Luther's family. Fascinating!
Very informative museum, helpful staff.
(Translated by Google) In this order, I visited Luther's birthplace (1 hour), Luther's death house (30 minutes) and the Luther parents' house museum (30 minutes). The focus in the Parents' House Museum is on the confrontation with death, well done, but overall not enough Luther in my opinion. The combination ticket for ten euros for all three facilities is a sensible investment. (Original) Ich habe, in dieser Reihenfolge, Luthers Geburtshaus (1 Stunde), Luthers Sterbehaus (30 Minuten) und das Museum Luthers Elternhaus (30 Minuten) besichtigt. Im Museum Elternhaus steht die Auseinandersetzung mit dem Tod im Mittelpunkt, gut gemacht, aber insgesamt für mein Empfinden zu wenig Luther. Das Kombiticket um zehn Euro für alle drei Einrichtungen ist eine sinnvolle Investition.
(Translated by Google) Very modern, very informative, always worth a trip. Very nice people, very nice seminars and events on Luther and related topics. Clear recommendation. (Original) Sehr modern, sehr informativ, immer eine Reise wert. Sehr nette Leute, sehr schöne Seminare und Veranstaltungen zu Luther und verwandten Themen. Klare Empfehlung.
(Translated by Google) Much better than the birthplace in Eisleben! More modern, better labeled and lit, music and other gadgets that are either obvious or triggered when you walk past. This makes it (in my opinion) more suitable for children than the birth center. (Original) Wesentlich besser, als das Geburtshaus in Eisleben! Moderner, besser beschriftet und beleuchtet, Musik und andere Spielereien, die man entweder offensichtlich erkennt oder beim vorbeigehen auslöst. Dadurch (meiner Meinung nach) ehr für Kinder geeignet, als das Geburtshaus.
(Translated by Google) A very nice older woman (99) lives there. It can tell more about the place than a history book. (Original) Dort wohnt eine sehr nette ältere Frau (99). Sie kann mehr über den Ort erzählen, als ein Geschichtsbuch.
(Translated by Google) Nice museum where you learn a lot about Luther's childhood and youth. Very interesting and interactive and a must for those interested in history. (Original) Schönes Museum, indem man viel über Luthers Kindheit und Jugend erfährt. Sehr interessant und interaktiv gestaltet und ein Muss für geschichtlich Intersssierte.
(Translated by Google) We really liked Luther's parents' house. The parents' house itself is small and has many digital stations. This really appealed to our children. The actual museum is a new building opposite. There are many exhibits that are well worth seeing and that came to light not long ago as a result of construction work on the property. Including jewelry and children's toys. A very large part deals with early childhood and how Luther experienced it and thought about it. That was very exciting because many views are still relevant today. Even our teenagers spent a long time in the exhibition without getting bored. The staff are very friendly, funny and engaging. They really enjoy their job and it was fun to listen to them. Since Luther spent his entire childhood in his parents' house, we find Mansfeld more important than Eisleben with its birth and death house. (Original) Luthers Elternhaus hat uns über alle Maßen sehr gut gefallen. Das Elternhaus selbst ist klein und mit vielen digitalen Stationen versehen. Das hat unsere Kinder sehr angesprochen. Das eigentliche Museum ist ein Neubau gegenüber. Es gibt viele, sehr sehenswerte Ausstellungsstücke, die durch Bauarbeiten auf dem Grundstück vor nicht allzu langer Zeit ans Licht kamen. Darunter Schmuck und Kinderspielzeug. Ein sehr großer Anteil beschäftigt sich mit Kindheit früher und wie Luther sie erlebt und darüber gedacht hat. Das war sehr spannend, denn viele Ansichten sind auch heute noch Thema. Selbst unsere Teenager haben eine lange Zeit in der Ausstellung ohne Langeweile verbracht. Die Angestellten sind sehr freundlich, lustig und engagiert. Sie sind mit großer Freude bei ihrem Job und es hat Spaß gemacht, ihnen zuzuhören. Da Luther in seinem Elternhaus die gesamte Kindheit verbrachte hat, finden wir Mansfeld bedeutender, als Eisleben mit Geburt und Sterbehaus.

Even we can walking outside of the schloß and garden but you will love this place. They was still keep good if you want to see paranoma town view you can look around the garden at the right side of Schloß. My recommend that you would come here on Wednesday - Sunday if you want to try the café because the Cafe will closed on Monday - Tuesday.
A sight to the city Mansfeld from the castle is wonderful. A romantic place and possibility to play the football with your kid in a courtyard. There was a cafe, witch we couldn't visit, because it was closed on Monday. In Mansfeld on Mondays you can't eat out in the restoran, bcz they all are closed. We taked take away- food and it was very tasty.
Very nice Shloss perfect for large family events and very quiet and peaceful.
0-24 public place, beautiful view, nice people.
Very interesting place.

Very lovely and surprising big evangelical church. Very nice and informative guided tour by a friendly community member
(Translated by Google) A beautiful church that is closely linked to Martin Luther. It has a unique geometric ceiling and a real Cranach painting. Many other works of art also invite you to linger and marvel. The church was extensively restored in 2017 and shines in new splendor everywhere! We received a very warm welcome and learned everything we needed to know about the church from the gentleman. Taking photos costs 2 euros. (Original) Eine wunderschöne Kirche, die eng mit Martin Luther verbunden ist. Sie besitzt eine einmalige geometrische Decke und ein echtes Cranachgemälde. Auch viele andere Kunstwerke laden zum Verweilen und Staunen ein. Die Kirche wurde 2017 sehr aufwendig restauriert und strahlt überall im neuen Glanz! Wir wurden sehr nett empfangen und haben von dem Herrn alles Wissenswerte über die Kirche erfahren. Fotos zu machen kostet 2 Euro.
(Translated by Google) A beautiful church with a lot of history, Luther is omnipresent here. Greatly renovated for the Luther year. A thank you to the nice woman who told us a lot about the church and Luther in Mansfeld. (Original) Eine schöne Kirche mit ganz viel Geschichte, Luther ist hier allgegenwärtig. Toll renoviert zum Lutherjahr. Ein Dankeschön der netten Frau, die uns viel über die Kirche und Luther in Mansfeld erzählt hat.
(Translated by Google) Unfortunately closed, even though it should be open according to opening times. Too bad. But very nice from the outside. (Original) Leider geschlossen, obwohl sie laut Öffnungszeiten offen sein sollte. Schade. Von außen aber sehr schön.
(Translated by Google) The houses are fine, the streets are fine - what about the people? We met exactly two people and they were in the info at Luther's church school. what a sad place! Even the invitation to Luther's (!) school enrollment party didn't really motivate us to go there again. (Original) die häuser sind in Ordnung, die Straßen sind in Ordnung - was ist mit den menschen? wir haben genau zwei menschen getroffen und die waren in der info an der kirche - schule von Luther. was für ein trauriger ort! auch die Einladung zur einschulungsfeier von Luther (!) hat uns nicht wirklich motiviert dort noch mal hinzufahren.
(Translated by Google) Also part of M. Luther's legacy They should also be opened to visitors. (Original) Gehört auch zum Erbe M.Luther Man sollte sie auch für Besucher öffnen.
(Translated by Google) Beautiful building with an eventful history. Renewed windows tell stories of the region. (Original) Schönes Gebäude mit bewegter Geschichte. Erneuerte Fenster erzählen Geschichten der Region.

(Translated by Google) Our child loves being there. He loves riding trains and the whole place is beautifully designed for the children. You can let off steam there and play football, throwing cans, playing in the sandpit and other small games. There are also delicious cakes, coffee and popsicles there. And a nice lap around the Vatteröder pond isn't too much for the little legs at 1.2 km 🙃. (Original) Unser Kind ist gerne dort. Er liebt Eisenbahn fahren und auch so der ganze Platz ist schön gemacht für die Kinder. Sie können sich dort austoben und Fußball, Dosen werfen, im Sandkasten und andere kleine Spiele spielen. Leckeren Kuchen, Kaffee und Eis am Stiel gibt es auch dort. Und eine schöne Runde um den Vatteröder Teich ist auch nicht zu viel für die kleinen Beinchen mit 1,2 km 🙃.
(Translated by Google) A beautiful, nostalgic park railway. It runs through nature, parallel to the country road. The romanticism of the railway is brought to life by enthusiastic train drivers and conductors in original uniforms. It's not just for children. Round trip for two adults and two children: €12. Travel time: 24 minutes. (Original) Schöne nostalgische Parkeisenbahn. Fährt durch die Natur parallel zur Landstraße. Hier wird die Eisenbahnromantik durch begeisterte Lokführer und Schaffner in Orginaluniform gelebt. Das gefällt nicht nur Kindern. Hin- und Rückfahrt für 2Erwachsene und 2 Kinder 12Euro. Fahrzeit 24min.
(Translated by Google) It's a great destination for a weekend getaway, and not just for kids. The people who run everything are super friendly. I'd like to thank everyone, keep up the good work. I hope many more visitors come. (Original) Es ist ein top Ziel für einen Ausflug am Wochenende nicht nur für Kinder. Super nette Leute die alles betreiben. Ich möchte mich bei allen herzlich bedanken, macht weiter so. Ich hoffe es kommen noch viele Besucher.
(Translated by Google) Great excursion destination for the whole family. It's great what has been set up here to give the small railway a future. It's a shame that things don't look so good around the Vatteröder pond and that activities in connection with the park railway are only possible with the Wipperliese. (Original) Super Ausflugsziel für die ganze Familie. Toll was hier auf die Beine gestellt wurde um der kleinen Bahn eine Zukunft zu geben. Schade das es um den Vatteröder Teich leider nicht so gut aussieht und somit Unternehmungen in Verbindung mit der Parkbahn maximal nur mit der Wipperliese möglich sind.
(Translated by Google) Great destination for a trip... The small railway has been cult since the 1970s and is an absolute attraction with a unique selling point. Playgrounds, toys, food, drink... Everything is there - so to speak: highly recommended 👍👍👍 (Original) Prima Ziel für einen Ausflug... Die Klein- Eisenbahn ist Kult seit den 70iger Jahren und eine absolute Attraktion mit Alleinstellungsmerkmal. Spielplätzen, Spielzeug, Essen, Trinken... Alles vorhanden- sozusagen: sehr zu empfehlen 👍👍👍
(Translated by Google) Very nice park at the Vatteröder pond. The park railway is a special highlight with children, but a ride is also recommended. There are sufficient parking spaces available. Traveling with the Wipperliese from Wippra or Klostermansfeld is also fun. Unfortunately winter break from November 1st, 2022. (Original) Sehr schöner Park am Vatteröder Teich. Die Parkeisenbahn ist ein besonderes Highlight mit Kindern, aber auch so ist eine Fahrt empfehlenswert. Parkmöglichkeiten sind ausreichend vorhanden. Spaß macht aber auch die Anreise mit der Wipperliese von Wippra oder Klostermansfeld. Leider ab 01.11.22 Winterpause.
(Translated by Google) Children's railway in German. Children work as conductors, station masters and switches on the railway. It consists of two stations and a narrow-gauge railway connecting them. 5 open carriages are pulled by a battery-powered electric locomotive. One of the stations has a turntable. The main station has a playground with games. Tickets cost 2 for children and 3 for adults. The railway operates only on weekends. Children will find it interesting. (Original) Детская железная дорога по немецки. На железной дороге кондукторами, начальниками станций и стрелочниками работают дети. Состоит из двух станций и соединяющей их узкоколейки. 5 открытых вагончиков тянет аккумуляторный электровоз. На одной из станций есть поворотный круг. На главной станции есть детская площадка с играми. Стоимость билета 2е детям и 3е взрослым. Дорога работает только по выходным. Детям будет интересно.
(Translated by Google) The difference in level of the stations makes the descent like a rollercoaster. The climb brings the rest. What a joke not only for children, but also for adults! (Original) La différence de niveau de les stations fait la descente comme un grand huit. La remonte fait le repos. Quelle plaisanterie non seulement pour les enfants, mais aussi pour les adultes!
