Barrier-free travel

Thuringia barrier-free - holidays for the disabled

Holiday time is the best time of the year for the disabled too and Thuringia has a lot to offer for them - cherry blossom in the Japanese Garden in Bad Langensalza, the great little world of the model railway in Wiehe, the Garden of Fragrance and Touch in Fürstenhagen. All these attractions and lots more can be discovered and explored by the disabled on holiday.

Hainich National Park

Experience untouched nature in Hainich National Park, which, although it is small, provides a wide programme for the disabled.

Breathe in deeply when a cool breeze wafts the scents of the forest into your face! more – Hainich National Park

Duchess Anna Amalia Library

After being damaged by fire and elaborately reconstructed, the library with its famous Rococo Room was reopened in 2007. During reconstruction, barrier-free accessibility of the study centre and historic library was a special focus. With the help of guide maps and induction loops, people with impairments of the senses can experience this UNESCO World Heritage building and its extensive displays. more – Duchess Anna Amalia Library
