Unfortunately the restaurant is closed.

So you don't need to drive up here because of the summit. But the trails that lead down there are very nice ^^

Railway viaduct on the Bischofswerda - Bautzen line. Impressively spans the valley. Worth seeing

"Old Stone Saw": Very interesting guided tour with a 20-minute film about the history of granite quarrying. Opening hours (as of 09/2023): May-September, every 1st Sunday of the month 10 a.m.-5 p.m

"Feldspar, quartz, and mica, I'll never forget those three," a schoolmaster once rhymed to help his students memorize the components of this plutonic rock. From the mid-19th century onward, granite had become a building material with steadily increasing demand. Building construction required bricks, window and door frames, steps and landings; road construction required paving stones and curbs; and railways required ballast and stones for bridge construction. Granite covers an area of 4,600 km² in Lusatia alone. This is the reason why countless quarries emerged between Kamenz and the Königshainer Hills. The area around the Klosterberg between Demitz-Thumitz and Schmölln quickly developed into the most important and largest mining area in Saxony. The steadily increasing demand for granite products led to the development of many quarries. These, in turn, attracted workers who settled in the villages surrounding the Klosterberg. In the 100 years between 1850 and 1950, the population of Demitz-Thumitz increased nearly tenfold. Source: https://www.demitz-thumitz.de/

Was part of a crane with which the stones were transported.

Presumably, a border inspection took place in 1776 or forest areas on the Klosterberg, which belonged to the St. Marienstern monastery, were transferred to the Thumitz and Döbschke manors (near Göda). The coats of arms of the manors and the monastery (with the year 1776) are carved into the granite boulder.

Great covered resting place with a great view of the lake and its very beautiful surroundings.
