Tips

Whether it's a military cemetery, a war cemetery, a memorial or a simple cross along the way: many places and monuments that you come across along the way are testimonies of the horrors of war and tyranny that are still relevant and relevant today. They all have - and this for each generation anew (!) - two essential functions:

-1- Commemorating and remembering the victims

-2- Remind to keep the peace

Hohnstein Castle rises an impressive 140 meters above the Polenz Valley. The rock faces drop steeply into the valley from three sides. The only access is via the market square in the town of Hohnstein, whose landmark is the castle, which is said to have existed as early as 1236. As a fief of Emperor Charles IV, King of Bohemia, the frontier fortress was transferred to Hinko I. Berka von der Duba in 1353.
