ウィルデンフェルスの洞窟・トップ19

First mentioned as Castrum Czwickaw, it was severely damaged in a city fire in 1403. Demolition and reconstruction followed in the subsequent years, and from 1587 to 1590 it was transformed into a stately Renaissance castle. From 1775 to 1962, it served as a prison. After its closure, the monument fell into disrepair and was only saved by a comprehensive restoration between 2006 and 2008. Since then, the Wettin castle has once again shone in its full glory. Among its most famous guests was Martin Luther, who preached at the castle on May 2, 1522. August Bebel and Karl May also served their sentences here. https://www.zeitsprungland.de/poi/schloss-osterstein

A very beautiful castle

You can go into the castle for free. It's the seat of the city administration, etc. I recommend going to the park. You get a great view.

The renovated castle now houses a retirement home.

The former lowland castle, in its function as a city fortress, was located in the northeastern part of Zwickau's old town, just a few dozen meters from the Zwickauer Mulde River. A pronounced moat and high walls, which were still standing until the 19th century, suggest that the castle was originally built as a moated castle.

great corner, always worth a trip

History The first mention can be found in a document from 1103. The history of the village is directly related to the Lords of Isenburg. Around 1100, Reinbold and Gerlach built the Isenburg in the area of a manor of the Fulda Abbey as the ancestral castle of the Lords of Isenburg. Soon after the castle was built, the first residents settled in the valley and built their houses around the castle hill. Isenburg was a castle village and had special rights such as the status of a free town. However, a town was never founded, as the location of the town did not offer any opportunities for expansion. At the beginning of the 14th century, Isenburg was fortified. The fortifications, which extended over a large area around the castle and valley, not only protected the town, but also served as an advanced security point for the castle. The town fortifications consisted of a wall with four gates. Two gates - the "Alte Porz" and the "Schildpforte"

Stein Castle, also known as Schloss Stein, is located southeast of Zwickau in the Hartenstein district of Stein on the rocky bank of the Zwickauer Mulde in Saxony. Construction began in the 13th century and subsequent renovations gave it its current form. The building is a listed building.
