With some terrific road trip options available in the surrounding area, having your own car makes sense. Without one, it wouldn’t be half as easy to explore everything that Wernigerode, 16 miles away, has to offer. Wernigerode Marktplatz ought to be at the top of your to-do list here. Wernigerode Castle and Wernigerode Town Hall are fantastic attractions too. The locals will also probably point you toward Lutherstadt Eisleben, 25 miles away. If you can only see one thing here, make sure it’s Süßer See. (But we’d also recommend Martin Luther Death House and Martin Luther Birth House.)
