At the foot of the fortress, which is unique in Germany and directly on the Elbe, is the town of Königstein, which has around 2,400 inhabitants. Here you can enjoy fascinating landscape experiences in beautiful Saxon Switzerland.
The city owes its name to the former castle and later fortress, which was first mentioned in a document in 1241. Königstein was first mentioned in a document from 1379.
