The Lutherhaus
The Lutherhaus Eisenach is one of the oldest and loveliest half-timbered houses in Thuringia and one of the most important tourist attractions in Eisenach, Martin Luther’s “beloved city”.
Luther is supposed to have lived in this house as a schoolboy from 1498 to 1501. This is memorialized by the famous "Luther rooms" from 1356, which have been one of the most famous sites commemorating Reformation history since the 19th century. A European cultural heritage site, the Lutherhaus has been a museum since 1956 and has been fully restored and renovated between 2013 and 2015 in preparation for the anniversary of the Reformation in 2017.
