FREYBURG

This article appears in Volume V11, Page 211 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: FRA-GAE
FREYBURG [FREYBURG AN DER UNSTRUTI, a town of Germany, in Prussian
Saxony
 , in an undulating vine-clad country on the Unstrut, 6 m. N. from Naumberg-on-the-Saale, on the railway to Artern. Pop. 3200. It has a parish
church
 , a mixture of
Gothic
  and Romanesque architecture, with a handsome tower. It is, however, as being the " Mecca " of the German gymnastic
societies
  that Freyburg is best known. Here
Friedrich
  Ludwig Jahn (1778-1852), the father of German gymnastic exercises, lies buried. Over his grave is built the Turnhalle, with a statue of the " master," while hard by it the Jahn Museum in Romanesque style, erected in 1903. Freyburg produces sparkling wine of good quality and has some other small manufactures. On a hill commanding the town is the castle of Neuenburg, built originally in 1062 by Louis the Leaper,
count
  in Thuringia, but in its present form mainly the
work
  of the dukes of Saxe-
Weissenfels
 .
