Ilmenau

Ilmenau is best known within Bavaria for its setting amid the wooded hills of the Steigerwald, a low mountain range in Franconia. This small rural locality lies in a part of northern Bavaria where forest tracks, fields and scattered settlements define the landscape. The Steigerwald is noted for its extensive deciduous woodland, including beech forests, and contrasts with the more open Main valley to the west. Ilmenau belongs to the historic Franconian cultural area, whose regional identity remains distinct within modern Bavaria.
