Heinze Spring

Highlight • Natural Monument

In the past, Ziegenrück was a well-known holiday resort, and for the most part it still is today. The fact that this place is surrounded by forest and that the Saale flows through the middle of the city is reason enough to stay here. Hiking, cycling or MTB, you can experience it all here.
