    In the middle of Saxon Switzerland, on the summit of Pfaffenstein you will be treated to a fantastic panoramic view from the observation tower, a mountain plateau full of history and a regional retreat.

      The tower is absolutely a must! The view is terrific! Especially with children is the Pfaffenstein a worthwhile adventure that has everything to offer, what in the Saxon. Switzerland goes: exciting paths and stairs, magnificent views, explore the cave, and an exciting story!

        The Pfaffenstein with its many small "secrets" is often visited, even in winter.
