With some terrific road trip options available in the surrounding area, having your own car makes good sense. Without one, it wouldn’t be half as easy to soak up all that Bad Hersfeld, 20 miles away, has to offer. Bad Hersfeld Abbey Ruins should be high up on your list here. Kurpark and Bad Hersfeld Church are must-see attractions too. Marburg is another popular option. It’s 30 miles away and offers an array of awesome things to do. St. Elizabeth Church, Landgrafenschloss and Kaiser Wilhelm Tower are only the start.
