These are the remains of a former bear enclosure, built in 1609 by order of Elector Christian II. The facility served to keep bears for stag hunts at the Dresden court. Its use ended in 1756 when the remaining bears were killed due to the enclosure's dilapidated condition. Today, you can still see the massive foundations, some over a meter thick, and remnants of the barrier wall. The ruin is picturesquely situated in the forest and exudes a certain "lost place" atmosphere.
