Feasting with a view: located on the highest elevation of the Saalekessel near Saalfeld, the platform of the „Kulmturm” is 19 meters high, exactly 500 meters above sea level. The „new” Kulmberghaus was built in 1969 as a weather hut and is not only an interesting destination for hikers, but also for archaeologists. The shell limestone clod is a real treasure trove for collectors of fossils.
In the middle of nature, surrounded by natural foliage, you have the opportunity to admire a breathtaking view while indulging in the delicacies of Thuringian cuisine in the panorama restaurant. The spectrum ranges from small snacks to delicious dishes of the day and tempting desserts. And what you absolutely mustn't miss while you're in the heart of Thuringia is a tempting plate of home-baked Thuringian country cake, accompanied by a steaming cup of coffee.
In combination with the observation tower, the Kulm and its beer garden are the perfect place to enjoy a meal and linger. Add a visit to your day trip and enjoy the unique view to the full.
