Herbslebener Teiche Nature Reserve

Highlight • Lake

The nature reserve "Herbslebener Teiche" lies about 3 kilometers outside the municipality Herbsleben in an easterly direction and today covers an area of 99.3 hectares. Since 1993 this area has been declared a "European bird sanctuary" because native birds, insects and amphibians, some of which are threatened with extinction, have resettled there. The water areas are managed by the sport fishing association and used for fishing.

In the center of Herbsleben stands today's St. Trinitatis Church, one of the most beautiful and largest village churches in Thuringia. Once mentioned as a Marienkirche in a document dated 28.01.1300, later as St. Wigbertus Church, it is said to have been founded by the assistant of St. Boniface, by the name of Wigbertus, in the years 731-736.

Herbsleben Castle Ruins

Highlight • Castle

From the 16th century, the owners changed very often. All belonged to the high nobility. Numerous extensions were made in 1554 and 1594. During the Thirty Years' War, the buildings burned down. Behind the old ditch and the wall 1647 began the reconstruction as a castle.
