Schalkau

Schalkau has served as a settlement in southern Thuringia since the early Middle Ages. Set in the valley of the Grümpen, a tributary of the Itz, the town stands where the wooded heights of the Thuringian Forest lead towards the Franconian lands to the south. Schloss Schalkau is a prominent historic building in the centre, recalling the town’s long-established local importance. Schalkau belongs to the Sonneberg district, a part of Germany where forested uplands, compact towns and connections with neighbouring Bavaria shape the regional character.
