The 2022 Germany 2 euro commemorative coin depicts the historic Wartburg Castle, representing the federal state of Thuringia as part of the Bundesländer series. Situated on a precipice overlooking the town of Eisenach, the castle is a significant landmark in German history, famously serving as the refuge for Martin Luther during his translation of the New Testament into German. The design captures the architectural grandeur of the fortress, which has been recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage site for its cultural importance and medieval origins. By featuring this site, the coin highlights Thuringia’s profound influence on the development of the German language and national identity. This standard circulation issue was minted in 2022 with a total mintage of 6,300,000 pieces.
