already filled with water, natural monument

Border between the Kingdom of Saxony and Prussia.

In the past, many people would swim here, but now it is privately owned and all bathing facilities have been blocked off. Locals also call it the water quarry because there is another one nearby. If you like quarries, there are the Hohburg Mountains nearby, where there are even more and larger quarries.

"A piece of history along the S-Weg: The former border between Prussia and Saxony" After the Congress of Vienna in 1815 regulated the reorganization of Europe after the defeat of Napoleon and his allies in the Battle of the Nations near Leipzig, the Kingdom of Saxony had to cede parts of its territory to Prussia. The new border line ran along the S-Weg and across the Dahlen Heath. In the forests south of Schildau you can still find the old border stones that mark the former border in several places. These stones are engraved with "KP" and "KS", which stand for Kingdom of Prussia and Kingdom of Saxony and are reminiscent of the border established in the Congress of Vienna. Interestingly, this border was not revised until 1990, when the East German states were re-established in the final phase of the GDR. Citizen surveys showed that the majority of the northern Saxon areas should be annexed to Saxony again. Tip: the Napoleon Stone is located nearby. According to legend, Napoleon camped there during his retreat on the eve of the Battle of the Nations near Leipzig.

The Röcknitz manor probably dates from the middle of the 15th century. In 1465, Hans von Broda from Röcknitz received 14 groschen in annual rent from Czoch, today's Zwochau. In 1495, Georg von Waren was in the Röcknitz manor. In addition to the manor, around 1500 there was also an estate in Röcknitz belonging to the Meißen cathedral chapter, which was later partly used as a sheep farm. In the 16th century, the estate belonged to the von Nitzschwitz family. Several short-term owners followed one another and from 1622 Christian Zoch from Zwochau; the von Zoch family then kept it until 1687.

This is the Burzelberg, not the Collmberg! From the "Wurzener Rad-Landroute" cycle path through the Hohburg Mountains, you can get here with a detour on the narrow access road to the Burzelberg drinking water reservoir. From the 221m high elevation, when the weather is clear, you have a good view of the wide countryside towards Trebsen. From there, you can race downhill again on a trail.

At this point you are in the center of the Dahlener Heide and six different paths converge here. It used to be an important meeting point for hunters and lumberjacks - and because a huge oak tree once stood here, people always met "at the hunters' oak."

Good opportunities for a break.
