The Mulde River runs exclusively in the North German Plain, initially flowing through the Saxon Hills and passing Grimma, Nerchau, and Trebsen. Approximately near Wurzen, along the western edge of which it runs, the Mulde reaches the Elbe-Mulde Lowland. It then flows through Eilenburg and Bad Düben, and shortly thereafter leaves Saxon territory. The Mulde covers the rest of its course to its mouth in Saxony-Anhalt. The Mulde continued to flow west of the two towns of Pouch and Friedersdorf in the area of today's Goitzschesee until 1975. Since then, it has been dammed east of the two towns in the Mulde Reservoir – a former open-cast mine. The Mulde then flows past Muldenstein, Jeßnitz, Raguhn, and Dessau, and flows into the Elbe between Dessau and Roßlau after a distance of 147 km.[2] The "Wilde Mulde" revitalization project for the lower reaches of the river in Dessau was recognized as an official project of the UN Decade on Biodiversity in November 2018.[11][12] Source: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mulde_(Fluss)

Although the confluence of the two source rivers occurs approximately halfway along the Mulde's entire course, the Freiberg and Zwickau Mulde already contribute over 80% of the total water volume. This is due, on the one hand, to the shape of the catchment area, which is very wide in the Ore Mountains and narrows towards the Elbe, and, on the other hand, to the higher precipitation and, at the same time, higher proportions of runoff water in the mountains. The shape of the catchment areas also means that the longer Zwickau Mulde is the smaller of the source rivers at the confluence. The dominant hydrological branch of the Freiberg Mulde's river system is the Zschopau. In its upper catchment area, it is a named tributary, the Flöha, which contributes the larger water flow and is thus the Mulde's actual source river. Along this main flow path, the Mulde is approximately 267 kilometers long, and along its longest flow path (the Zwickau Mulde), a good 314 kilometers.[3] The Mulde catchment area has total gradients of 600 to 900 meters for many important flow paths, resulting in exceptionally high flow velocities for northern Germany. The Mulde is sometimes even described as the fastest-flowing river in Central Europe.[10] Source: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mulde_(Fluss)

The Mulde, also known as the United Mulde or Vereinigte Mulde, is a left-hand, non-navigable tributary of the Elbe. It originates southeast of Leipzig near Sermuth (Saxony) through the confluence of two large source rivers, the longer Zwickau Mulde and the Freiberger Mulde, which has a larger discharge and drains a larger catchment area. The river's catchment area encompasses large parts of Saxony and, in particular, the vast majority of the northern slopes of the Ore Mountains. With a water flow of approximately 73 m³/s at its mouth,[8] it is the fourth largest tributary of the Elbe. The old form of the Mulde's name, Milda, is translated by onomastics as "the watery one."[9] The word component "Mel," referring to milling, is sometimes associated with the name due to the large number of mills that once operated on the river, which ignores the fact that river names represent the oldest, often Slavic or Celtic, geographical name layer.

The park is only a few hundred meters from the city center. I was amazed at the size and spaciousness of the park. There is a lot to discover: the Georgium Castle, the Ionic Temple, the guest house, the "Roman ruins" and two replicas of ancient archways. I also really liked the ponds. You should plan enough time if you want to visit the park. There are numerous benches and rest areas where you can take a break.

During the redesign, the lake was divided into different areas. A small part was redesigned as a natural swimming pool.

A beautiful park to linger in. Sometimes it's quite wild...

The Cösitz manor (also Cösitz Castle or Cösitz Manor) In the year 750, there was already a Sorbian rampart on the site of today's manor, which was mentioned in documents in 839 when it was conquered by the Saxons. From 1370 to the middle of the 16th century, the complex was the ancestral seat of the Kositz family. After the plague of 1636 and pillage by Swedish troops in the Thirty Years' War, the village and the manor were desolate. In 1877, the rampart of the castle was demolished, which later enabled the construction of the east wing of the building. The building known today as the castle was built on behalf of Hubert Freiherr von dem Bussche-Lohe and his wife Jeannette von Wuthenau in 1891. The west wing was built in 1937, as was the English landscape park. The design for the new wing was drawn up by the retired senior building inspector and architect Hans Volkmann. The Baron had already had a small living space extension to the building planned by the man from Halle in 1933/34. It remained in the von dem Bussche family until it was put up for auction in 1945. In recent years, the manor has been renovated and apartments have been built. In the landscape park there is still a beech tree with a trunk diameter of six meters and a crown of 38 meters, making it one of the thickest beech trees in Germany. Remnants of the ramparts up to five meters high have been preserved. Source: Wikipedia
