Follow in the footsteps of gold prospectors at Germany's richest gold deposit, the Eisenberg.

Korbach's local mountain with the picturesque village of Goldhausen is a popular excursion destination. Gold miners have been searching for the coveted precious metal here since the Middle Ages. Evidence of mining can still be found today - above ground on the "Goldspur" nature trail and underground in the visitor mine. Helmet on, rubber boots on - and you too can experience historical mining up close! Other worthwhile destinations are the Eisenberg castle ruins and the 24 m high Georg Viktor Tower with a magnificent panoramic view over the Waldecker Land region.
