Museum Leuchtenburg, Medieval castle museum in Seitenroda, Germany.

The Leuchtenburg Castle stands at 395 meters above sea level, with thick stone walls and a 26-meter high round tower overlooking the Middle Saale Valley.

The fortress functioned as an administrative center in medieval times, later transforming into various institutions including a poorhouse, asylum, and prison through the centuries.

The Porzellanwelten exhibition within the castle walls presents an extensive collection of porcelain artifacts, documenting the regional ceramic manufacturing heritage.

The museum opens daily from 9:00 to 18:00 during summer months and 10:00 to 17:00 in winter, with entrance fees ranging between 6 and 16 euros.

The castle features the Skywalk of Wishes, a glass platform extending into the valley, allowing visitors to release porcelain plates while making wishes.
