ネシュヴィッツ周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

A city with wealthy citizens like Bautzen had to be constantly prepared for defense in the Middle Ages. Therefore, powerful city fortifications were built to deter enemy attacks. The sieges by the Hussites in 1429 and 1431 demonstrated that the existing defenses were no longer sufficient to protect the city. The municipality subsequently had the city fortifications extensively modernized and expanded well into the 16th century, with their might serving as a deterrent to enemy attacks. An outer and an inner city wall, moats, ditches, ramparts, bastions, and towers protected the city. Seven gates in the outer ring of walls secured access to the suburbs. By the early 18th century, however, the fortifications were gradually losing their military function. Furthermore, they hampered the city's architectural development and transport growth.

...to the old water art with the remains of the city wall, to the Mühlbastei, Ortenburg and Michaeliskirche, to the water tower and to the St. Petri Cathedral.

The water tower with the museum is one of the few accessible towers in Bautzen. 3.50 euros entry and you can go up and enjoy the view from above of the roofs of the old town, the Spree and the Friedensbrücke.

Here you can see the flood protection of the reservoir. Interesting location, also for children a place that you don't always see otherwise

Simply part of the city tour

Even if the traffic is roaring behind you (if there isn't another traffic jam coming into town...): Simply enjoy the view of Bautzen, which is over 1,000 years old, and the Spree at a depth of 25 m! The renovations of the old town have become simply great!

beautiful view over the reservoir

If you follow along the outer city wall in the direction of Lauengraben you have a beautiful view of the young Spree and over the towers of the city of Bautzen.
