very worth seeing, the Weißenborn Castle

The imposing castle in Nossen is visible from afar. Information: This Renaissance building was constructed on the site of an older medieval castle. The impressive castle complex sits on a rocky promontory overlooking the Freiberger Mulde valley. It acquired its final form with the completion of the gate tower (1682) and the construction of the stone castle bridge (1714).

The impressive Nossen Castle complex rises on a rocky outcrop above the Freiberger Mulde. Immerse yourself in the mysterious history of the impressive Renaissance castle. The drawing “View of Nossen in Saxony with Castle and Bridge” (Kupferstichkabinett Berlin) shows you Caspar David Friedrich’s diverse artistic interests and his enthusiasm for the region.

Very nice castle. Located since Privately owned in 2021 and currently undergoing renovation/restoration inside and out. Unfortunately it can only be viewed from the outside

Unfortunately, the castle is privately owned, so access is not possible. The gate was open, but a lock screen alerted me to private property. The site is also so well managed that a lot of greenery does not allow a view of the house, and not much can be seen from the pond below either.

Already in 1197 the seat of a knightly family was located here. The castles in Reinsberg and Bieberstein still bear witness to this today. When Reinsberg Castle was built and who founded it has not been proven with certainty to this day. However, it is considered very probable that the origin of the place and the castle is due to a German nobleman named Reinhardt, who built a castle at this place, under whose protection farmers gradually settled.

Nossen Castle is an imposing palace complex in the town of Nossen in Saxony. The Renaissance building was built on a rocky outcrop above the Freiberger Mulde valley on the site of an older medieval castle. It was built on behalf of the Saxon electors as a hunting lodge and residence on the way to and from Dresden and as the administrative headquarters of the Nossen office. Today, parts of the castle can be visited, and there are exhibitions on the Saxon noble families Schönberg and Friesen.
