"The Hermsdorf manor was acquired by Otto von Carlowitz in 1461. From 1553 to 1575, Christoph von Carlowitz built Hermsdorf Castle on it, an elongated, almost imperceptibly bent building in the Renaissance style with three towers in front, two side and one central stair tower, comparable to the Jägerhof (Dresden). The castle courtyard is surrounded by walls with thick round corner towers, as was the case with the original Moritzburg castle, and framed on three sides by a moat. " - de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hermsdorf_(Ottendorf-Okrilla)

A beautiful castle pond, the castle park and the paths along the Großer Röder invite you to explore.
