    Hiking

    From the highest mountain of the town you have a nice view of the city, castle and castle ruins.
    On this peak is also a triangulation column (survey point from the Kingdom of Saxony).

    Frauenstein Castle is a Renaissance castle in the Ore Mountains, located right next to a medieval castle ruin that is considered a landmark of the town and was built around 1200. The castle was built in 1585 to meet growing housing needs and today houses the Gottfried Silbermann Museum, dedicated to the famous organ builder. Unfortunately, it was hazy today, so we didn't have a view.
