Ilsenburg Abbey
Ilsenburg Abbey was a monastery of the Benedictine Order located at Ilsenburg near Wernigerode, in Saxony-Anhalt in Germany. The monastery was built on land given for the purpose in 1003 by Emperor Henry III to the Bishop of Halberstadt, and had been founded by 1009. In 1525 it was stormed, plundered and largely demolished by rebellious peasants; the monks were driven away, and did not return for several months.
Bäumlersklippe
The Bäumlersklippe is a crag and one of the so-called Harzklippen (Harz rock formations) in the Harz National Park southwest of Ilsenburg. Whilst in former times it was a popular observation point, which the remains of an enclosing fence bear witness to, today beech and spruce trees have grown up around it. The crag derives its name from the hunter, Bäumler. He is supposed to have stabbed and killed his only son out of jealousy and then thrown himself off this rock to his death.
Taubenklippe
The Taubenklippe is a rock formation in the Harz mountains in the German state of Saxony-Anhalt. It lies about halfway between Bad Harzburg and Ilsenburg at a height of 572 m above NN on the eastern slopes of the Ecker valley. From the crag there is a good view over Harz Foreland, the heights near Bad Harzburg and the highest mountain in the Har, the Brocken. The Taubenklippe may be reached from the Ecker valley on a footpath, some 6 km long, that starts in Ilsenburg.
Froschfelsen
The Froschfelsen ("Frog Rocks", 545 m above NN), also called the Froschsteinklippe, is a natural monument near Ilsenburg in the northern Harz in central Germany. It is a formation of granite rocks that take the shape of a frog, hence the name. The Froschfelsen is located on the Meineberg hill on the western side of the Ilse valley. It is a hiking destination and No. 5 in the system of checkpoints in the Harzer Wandernadel hiking network. The checkpoint is in a nearby refuge hut.
Eckertal
Eckertal is a hamlet of about 160 inhabitants on the eastern rim of the municipal area of Bad Harzburg in Lower Saxony, just north of the Harz mountain range. Its nearest neighbour is the village of Stapelburg in the state of Saxony-Anhalt. Its parish is bordered to the north and west by the Schimmerwald forest and to the east by the River Ecker.
Ilsenburg House
Ilsenburg House stands in the town of Ilsenburg (Harz) in the German state of Saxony-Anhalt and was given its present appearance in the 2nd half of the 19th century. The structure was built from 1860 onwards on the west and north sides of the Romanesque monastery of Ilsenburg Abbey. The stately home, designed in the Neo-Romanesque style, was the seat of the princes of Stolberg-Wernigerode until 1945. Since 2005, it has been owned by the Ilsenburg Abbey Foundation.
Ilse valley
The Ilse valley lies on the northern boundary of the Harz in Germany, running from the National Park town of Ilsenburg at the foot of the mountain range up to the source region of the Ilse river – near the summit of the legendary Brocken. Heinrich Heine, the famous German writer, described the Ilse valley with its little river and the rocks of the Ilsestein enthroned above it in what is now part of the Harz National Park.
Ilsestein
The Ilsestein, formerly also called the Ilsenstein, is a tourist attraction near the town of Ilsenburg in the Harz mountains of central Germany. The Ilsestein rises about 150 metres high over a little river, the Ilse, and lies at an elevation of 474 m above sea level. In the 10th century, there was a small siege castle on the Ilsestein immediately after the conversion of the old Ilsenburg castle into the Ilsenburg Abbey. It was destroyed around 1107 after lasting around a hundred years.
