Hohnstein Town Hall (Rathaus Hohnstein)

Highlight • Monument

Located on the outskirts of the immediate town center and still worth a visit. In the courtyard there is a small fountain for "refreshment for hikers"

Gautsch Grotto

Highlight • Cave

As in some places in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains, the rock formation also arouses awe here. In addition to the size of this cave you act as a human being in the face of nature.

Brand Steps

Highlight • Trail

Around 850 steps from the Tiefen Grund to the Brand massif will make your thighs burn. 🔥 Around 150 metres in altitude are overcome, mostly on wooden stairs and two steel stairs.
