The first mention was in 1305. It was destroyed by the town fire in 1442 and rebuilt in its current form in 1538 to 1585. It is one of the best-preserved Renaissance town halls in Saxony.

Pöppelmann Bridge (Grimma)

Highlight • Bridge

If you had to choose between the concrete bridge and the baroque Pöppelmann Bridge, it would be clear.
It's a shame that such architecture no longer exists.
Great bridge with hollows and city views.
