    Hiking

    The Sunstone is a fortress with a castle. Today is the district office, as well as the archive network in the buildings. In addition, there is also the memorial Sonnenstein, which deals with the history of the killing center of the National Socialists.
    In addition, here the Canaletto path and the Malerweg, both very beautiful hiking trails (partly on the same route), which have been beautifully restored, especially in the area of the castle in recent years.

    Hiking

    The Canalettoweg on the east side of the old fortress is worthwhile.

    sure looks bigger than it is. You feel so small standing there right at the foot of the walls.
