    You can certainly visit the castle, but walking through the tunnel was also nice 😆

      Rauenstein Castle in the Ore Mountains is a historic castle complex embedded in the forests of the central Ore Mountains high above the Flöha Valley. A house with centuries of history today offers the perfect setting for wedding celebrations, events, conferences and holidays in a special atmosphere.
      The castle was first mentioned in 1323, and archaeological research suggests that it was first built around 1200. The first lords of Rauenstein were the Schellenbergers. After several changes of rulers, the castle became the property of the Electorate of Saxony in 1567. The Rauenstein office that had been established was added to Wolkenstein in 1596. Major structural changes were made around 1630. The road tunnel also dates from this time. From 1651 to 1743 the castle was leased to the von Römer family, who had become very wealthy in the Schneeberg area through silver mining.
