The "White Maiden" according to the legend of "Rabenau Castle." Along the "Legendary Mühlberg" adventure trail in Rabenau.

Info:

Rabenau Castle once stood on the rocky promontory between the Red Weißeritz River and the Oelsabach Valley. According to legend, an enchanted "White Maiden" still wanders the area with a far-reaching light in her hand, waiting to be freed from a heavy curse.

From time to time, a young lady could be seen in the castle courtyard of Rabenau, who wandered restlessly around at night with a bright, far-reaching light, waiting to be released from the spell. What kind of release this was and why the young lady wandered around has not been discovered.
