Beautifully laid out hiking trail around Scharfenstein Castle offers many opportunities to take a break and enjoy views of the Zschopautal, some information boards point out certain special features of the region (e.g. Karl Stülpner's birthplace, Zschopau loop)

Like the neighboring villages of Neukirchen and Burkhardtsdorf, Klaffenbach was a tributary village to the Benedictine Abbey of St. Mary in Chemnitz. These villages were sold in 1543 (according to other sources, 1547) to the wealthy Annaberg citizen Wolff Hühnerkopf, owner of several silver mines and master of the mint. He had the moated castle, now known as "Klaffenbach Water Castle" (older name "Neukirchen Castle"), built around 1557. After several changes of ownership, the castle came into the possession of Baron Dietrich von Taube, a court marshal of the Electorate from the Baltic region, in 1615. The castle's current appearance is said to be the result of the reconstruction under Taube beginning in 1616. The castle remained in the possession of the von Taube family for over 200 years. In 1819, the factory owner, merchant, and trader Carl Heinrich Hähnel from Schneeberg acquired the castle complex. The castle subsequently changed hands several times. In 1926, the municipality of Klaffenbach became owner of the manor (the moated castle's farmyard), and from 1934 onward, the moated castle as well. Subsequently, it was used by the Reich Labor Service (from 1935 to 1945) and as a youth correctional facility (1947-1989). After extensive renovation in the 1990s, the castle and its adjacent farmyard were converted into a cultural meeting place. Other buildings in the farmyard housed a hotel and a restaurant.

Always worth a trip. Worth seeing are the funicular, the old town and Augustusburg Castle with its museums. In my opinion, the motorcycle museum is particularly worth seeing because it focuses on the motorcycle industry in Saxony.

If you are looking for a place where you can literally touch history and where everything revolves around the family, Scharfenstein Castle is perfect for you: it is a picture-book castle! There are only a few places where the myth and magic of the Ore Mountains come together as much as in this medieval castle, which was built around 1250 during the settlement of the Ore Mountains. Who hasn't heard of the Robin Hood of the Ore Mountains? The castle museum takes you into the legendary world of Karl Stülpner, the Ore Mountains folk hero who, as a poacher and smuggler, bon vivant and survivor, was always one step ahead of the authorities. With a craft workshop, fairy tale days, ghost meetings and treasure hunts and much more, families in particular feel at home here. https://www.stadt-ehrenfriedersdorf.de/freizeit-tourismus/freizeitangebote.html

There are changing exhibitions in the castle, concerts take place in the orangery and the park is also well worth seeing with its many water features.
