A beautiful stilt house on the pond in Plothen 🤩.

A very impressive ⛪️ ruin in the middle of the forest 🌲🌳 .

The small village, probably founded in the 12th century by the Lobdeburg family, was an active fief of the Abbots of Saalfeld and was repeatedly deserted. Since the 16th century, only two houses were occupied as forest and field supervisors, and not always. In 1850, the last family left the isolated place.

Bräutigamswand, a legendary sandstone cliff

The Bräutigamswand is located on a beautiful trail (Saalleitenweg), which follows the course of the Saale between Oberkrossen and Zeutsch. Stories say that girls from Töpfersdorf used to meet here to see their future husbands in the Saale fog. One day, when a girl was standing on the cliff of the mighty rock and looking into the fog, she saw her husband. The girl was frightened and fell down the "Grätigamswand". She fell into the Saale and has not been found to this day.

In the land of 1000 ponds there are also 1000 things to discover... What a beautiful landscape.

A beautiful circular route in a charming lake landscape.

The circular route is very beautiful and well signposted. But you can also spontaneously take a different route; there are many good paths here and it is almost impossible to get lost. There are a few places to sit and rest at the first large pond with the stilt house, but there are a few at the other ponds.
