German Framework Road

Steinau is member of the German Framework Road,

The German Framework Road, founded in 1990, runs meanwhile from the river Elbe to the Lake Constance through six federal states (Lower Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt, Hesse, Thuringia, Bavaria and Baden Wuerttemberg) and is divided into nine regional routes.

In the meantime, more than 100 framework towns have joined up under the slogan "Framework unites" in order to coordinate their marketing. The German Framework Road doesn't only join unique landscapes, historic sites and carefully restored monuments but above all the people who live and work there. Health resorts and festival locations alternate with nature parks and romantic nooks. Cider and Bock beer were invented here and hardly any other tourist route can offer its guests such a variety of culinary delights.

Germany's northern most vineyard, the biggest Christmas candle in the world and Germany's only Ivory Museum are all located on the German Framework Road. Many events, festivals and markets offer the visitor variety and entertainment throughout the whole year.
Whether you travel by car, by bicycle, by train or in a motor-home ? discover the old craft and living traditional customs on this historical trail.
We would like to invite you to a tour full of culture and adventure along the German Framework Road.
