The beautiful castle is located in the middle of a 30 hectare green park. It is crossed by small rivers and is a real treat for the senses. You cannot visit the castle, the rooms can be rented for celebrations and conferences. The Christmas market at the castle, which is open to all visitors, is definitely worth a visit: schloss-hohenpriessnitz.de.

It shines again in a new splendor.

You should definitely visit it at Christmas time.
