    At the foot of Weißenstein Castle, right next to the museum in the Eating House - Dichterturm, a forest grows that cannot be found anywhere else: the firs, spruces, beeches, pines and aspens are made of colored flat glass.

    The glass forest is one of the most important sights of the climatic health resort. It is a tourist attraction and a work of art at the same time. Thousands of visitors go into raptures year after year after a walk through the 2000 square meter glass forest.

      In Weißenstein, it is worth taking a short coffee break at the kiosk.
