History
The medieval stronghold was rebuilt into a Renaissance castle, and in the 19th century, Prince George II of Meiningen gave it a romantic look.
After a fire and many years of restoration, Veste Heldburg became the seat of the Deutsches Burgenmuseum, which tells the story of everyday life in the castles.
Deutsches Burgenmuseum pokazuje architekturę, życie mieszkańców i przemiany zamków w szerokiej perspektywie. Sama Heldburg staje się przykładem analizowanym na tle całej kultury zamkowej.
Französischer Bau i przekształcenia Jerzego II nadają warowni bajkową formę, ale ekspozycja oddziela historyczne realia od późniejszych wyobrażeń. Panorama Grabfeldu z murów jest mocnym finałem tej wielowątkowej wizyty.
