Wildenfels Castle rises on a mountain spur above the town. From afar you can see the white facade shining above the green treetops. Its impressive silhouette shapes the townscape.

Wildenfels Castle has attracted attention beyond the region, particularly through its cultural treasures, and has become a point of attraction at the foot of the Ore Mountains. Numerous exhibitions in the Musenhof and the contemporary gallery invite you to linger. Art lovers, guests and visitors to West Saxony can gain an informative insight into the artistic wealth of the region.

The "Blue Salon" with its unique silk wallpapers shines in new splendor after its restoration. With the finest silk and elaborate embroidery, you can admire a unique overall interior design from the late 18th century. Let yourself be enchanted by the flower bouquets, the rich decor and the oriental feel of this wallpaper work of art.

The classicist castle hall with the wedding room and the count's library are also worth a visit. The ceiling paintings by Christian Leberecht Vogel are particularly worth seeing. As court painter, he shaped Wildenfels Castle with numerous portraits of the count's family, murals and overdoors.
