From the Manufacturer --------------------- In the middle of the 19th century as well as in the 50's of the 20th century, extensive restoration work was done on the Wartburg. Through the much replenishment in the course of the centuries, many different architectural styles from the Romanesque, Gothic and Renaissance periods can be found on the Wartburg. One can understand the original condition of the castle through drawings done by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe during a visit to the Wartburg. The castle complex was originally built in the shape of a ring. In the 14th and 15th centuries the battlements Margarethengang and Elisabethgang were added to the former ring wall. The Bailiwick and the Knights' House connect to the Margarethengang. Both buildings originate from the 15th century. This building complex is also called the Front Castle. The middle part of the castle reaches from the Gate Hall to the Large Tower, also called Keep. It was built in the 19th century on the foundations of earlier buildings. In the actual Hofburg there is the "Palas" from the 12th century. It served the landgrave as a representing and residential building and is today one of the best preserved buildings of the Romanesque period. Today it houses the museum. The Knights' Bath and the Guesthouse from the 19th century and the South Tower, also called powder Tower, from the 14th century also belong to the Hofburg. The long drawn-out, somewhat irregular way of building of the Wartburg is very impressive to the present day. Ludwig II of Bavaria was inspired by the castle when he planned the building of Neuschwanstein Castle in the middle of the 19th century. In 1999 the UNESCO appointed the castle as "World Heritage of Mankind" and in doing so not only acknowledged its varied architecture, but also its great historical importance.
