    Hiking

    The baroque castle of Lichtenwalde is picturesquely situated in the Zschopautal. The baroque garden with its winding paths and many water features invites you to linger. The castle is one of the "three worth seeing" (Augustusburg, Lichtenwalde Castle and Scharfenstein Castle).

    Hiking

    The abundance of water features makes Lichtenwalde Castle and Park a magical place in Central Saxony. 335 historic fountains are spread across the baroque garden and connected by an ingenious circuit. Due to its subtle design, Lichtenwalde is considered one of the most beautiful baroque ensembles in Germany.
    Porcelain and silk embroidery from China and Japan, ritual objects from Nepal, spirit masks from West Africa: The castle now houses the Treasury Museum, which displays exhibits from foreign and partly past cultures. What is probably the largest paper cutting collection in Germany is also not to be missed.👍
