In terms of content, the series tended towards German-national topics. Thuringia's education policy is a focus.

  • Artistic culture
  • State educational culture
  • Sing, say and tell
  • Knowledge and Wisdom (Philosophical Culture)
  • Redehalle (Thuringian theater art)

A short version of a sixteen-page memorandum by the publisher Hans KE Buhmann on the content of the Wartburg voices that was published separately in 1902, attached to the 3rd issue of the 1st year (1903), clearly shows his strongly racist mentality and German-national beliefs.

The magazine went on together with Ernstes Wollen in German culture , which appeared from 1905/06 and ceased to appear in the third year 1907/08.
