Hike with Maik⛰️🌲🏃

September 8, 2021

Hiking

Very beautiful historic town center, which is surrounded by old farms. Trachau was incorporated into Dresden at the beginning of the 20th century. Alttrachau is now the name of the longer part of the street that ran through the former village of Trachau, which was once to be found on the city map as the village square

Several historical farmsteads are grouped around the core of the former street village, some of which are listed.

Trachau was first documented in 1242 as Trachennowe. Although founded by the Sorbs as a village with a green on an old branch of the Elbe, the name is of Middle High German origin and roughly translates as "place near the Dragon Mountains." The oldest house is located at Henricistraße 4, built in 1642. Trachau remained largely undamaged during World War II, preserving its historic village character with its green and two- and three-sided farmyards.
