In the foothills of the Osterzgebirge, high above the valley of the Seidewitz, in the smallest Saxon town, Liebstadt, lies the Kuckuckstein Castle. Away from the usual tourist trails of Saxon Switzerland and yet in the immediate vicinity, it towers over the wooded slopes. Even the journey via Pirna, through the picturesque Seidewitztal, is an incomparable experience. Here, history still breathes in its most original form. Even Napoleon could not escape this flair and for the Masonic Lodge the castle is still a focal point of their work today.

quite impressive castle. As a child, I learned about it from the program "Magic at Kuckuckstein Castle" on GDR television.
