It was a fateful detour that led Schiller on his way to Weimar to the quiet Rudolstadt.
In the house of the von Lengefeld family (Schiller House) he met his future wife Charlotte von Lengefeld and her sister Caroline von Beulwitz.
Here in September 1788, the first, although not very cordial, encounter with Goethe also took place. Schiller took lodging in nearby Volkstedt in the house of cantor Unbehaun. He walked almost daily back to the new old town.
The time spent with the two young women not only inspired his literary work, but also made the Rudolstadt summer of 1788 unforgettable for him.
Whether this euphoric appreciation was inspired by nature or his future wife Charlotte von Lengefeld can be explored on the almost 12 kilometers long hike in and around Rudolstadt. The focus is on Schiller's places of residence and work, but also on the charming surroundings of Rudolstadt, such as the Hain, the village of Mörla, and the almost Italian-like Rudolstadt Riviera on the banks of the Saale.
