Edition 2025 — MDR Musiksommer Wartburg
In 2025, the MDR Musiksommer also visited the festival hall of Wartburg Castle in Eisenach. The concert was part of the multi-week season and brought high-calibre classical music to the UNESCO World Heritage site. The historic setting — the scene of the Sängerkrieg and Luther's Bible translation — provided, as always, an unparalleled framework for the concert experience.
Wartburg Castle 2025 — Classical Music in a UNESCO World Heritage Site
In August 2025, the MDR Musiksommer once again visited Wartburg Castle. The concerts organized by Mitteldeutscher Rundfunk brought internationally renowned soloists to the historic festival hall — a venue whose medieval acoustics, combined with high medieval architectural elements, offer one of Germany's most impressive listening experiences, especially when paired with contemporary piano and chamber music.
