First mentioned as Castrum Czwickaw, it was severely damaged in a city fire in 1403. Demolition and reconstruction followed in the subsequent years, and from 1587 to 1590 it was transformed into a stately Renaissance castle. From 1775 to 1962, it served as a prison. After its closure, the monument fell into disrepair and was only saved by a comprehensive restoration between 2006 and 2008. Since then, the Wettin castle has once again shone in its full glory. Among its most famous guests was Martin Luther, who preached at the castle on May 2, 1522. August Bebel and Karl May also served their sentences here. https://www.zeitsprungland.de/poi/schloss-osterstein

Waldenburg Castle. Information: Built in the Historicist style, incorporating medieval architectural elements. It dates back to a castle built in the 12th century, presumably between 1165 and 1172.

Glauchau Castle. Information: Renaissance castle. It was built starting in 1470 on the site of a castle built around 1170 by the Lords of Schönburg. A museum was established in the castle in the early 20th century.

A very beautiful castle

The renovated castle now houses a retirement home.

The former lowland castle, in its function as a city fortress, was located in the northeastern part of Zwickau's old town, just a few dozen meters from the Zwickauer Mulde River. A pronounced moat and high walls, which were still standing until the 19th century, suggest that the castle was originally built as a moated castle.

Beautiful castle with an interesting museum. Definitely worth a visit 😉
