Even the most urban corners of Weimar hide pockets of nature for those willing to walk. Green spaces like Schiller's House offer a breathing room between landmarks — and some of the best views you'll find anywhere in the city. Seek out quieter retreats like Buchenwald Memorial for the calm that the busier parks can't offer.

Quieter spots like Buchenwald Memorial provide the kind of rest that the main attractions cannot.
