ペガウのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

The castle ruins can be visited free of charge at any time. Particularly worth seeing are the partially reconstructed round chapel and the stump of a round tower, both dating from around 1080. During the summer months, events such as open-air concerts and performances are frequently held on the grounds. A vineyard with over 500 vines, flowerbeds, and hiking trails have been created. The lapidarium within the castle grounds now comprises a collection of approximately 40 fieldstones and boundary stones from the region. https://www.groitzsch.de/freizeit-kultur-tourismus/sehenswuerdigkeiten/55-wiprechtsburg

Town Church (Church of Our Lady) Romanesque origin, rebuilt several times, most recently in 1883/84; comprehensive exterior renovation in 1994, roof truss and entire interior renovated from 2005 to 2007 https://www.groitzsch.de/freizeit-kultur-tourismus/sehenswuerdigkeiten/64-weitere-denkmale-historische-bauten

The new observation tower is almost finished. Opening around the beginning of April 2025. The visible wall wings are movable and give the tower a different look depending on the wind direction. Good idea!

A small, idyllic rest area on the Schwennigke.

Highest elevation in the Elsteraue.

The Frauenkirche has been rebuilt several times. https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frauenkirche_(Groitzsch)#

It's amazing how far the boundary stones were transported, e.g. granite from Lusatia.

Always worth a visit.
