Deutsche Fachwerkstraße

Experience the fascination of the framework on more than 2,800 kilometers in length.
The German Framework Road, launched in 1990, now extends from the mouth of the Elbe to Lake Constance, is divided into regional lines, touching six federal states (Lower Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt, Hesse, Thuringia, Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg).

Under the motto "truss connects" have now joined nearly 100 half-timbered towns, to jointly present themselves. However, the German Framework Road connects not only unique landscapes, historic sites and carefully restored monuments, but also the people who live and work in it.

Spa and festival locations alternate with nature parks and romantic nooks. Äppelwoi and Bock beer were invented here, and almost any other tourist route is likely to offer your guests such varied culinary delights.

Germany's northernmost vineyard, the biggest Christmas candle in the world and Germany's only Ivory Museum are located on the German Framework Road.

Numerous events, festivals and markets offer visitors all year round variety and stimulation. Whether you are traveling by car, by bike, train or motor home - discover the traces of the past, old world craftsmanship and the living traditional customs.
