Maienhof (1576) Built as a representative residence for the Lords of Zweifel. Elements of the half-timbered design include curved St. Andrew's crosses, male figures, and an emphasised horizontal structure. From 1777 to 1785, it was the residence of Heinrich Cotta, the pioneer of German forestry. (Flyer "Historical city tour")

View of Wasungen

Highlight • Viewpoint

At the entrance of Wasungen, the town praises itself as a carnival and half-timbered town. Carnival? In the middle of Thuringia? But hello! The Wasunger are already celebrating the 483rd Carnival Session (more tradition than Cologne!) And of the 3,500 inhabitants, 2,000 are active in the carnival. There are handmade evenings, a rag ball and of course removals. Nature conservation also plays a role in carnival - the white stork was already the star of a carnival group. The Carnival greeting from Wasungen is not Helau and not Alaaf, but "Ahoi" because of the rafting tradition on the Werra.
