November 2, 2025,Wettinhain Park in Burgstädt

The entrance fee for the Taurastein Tower is €2, allowing you to enjoy the excellent panoramic views. The climb up the 163 steps is pleasant.

From Wettin Park, you can take the circular path around Hänflingsberg and admire the Gustav Winkler sculpture with its viewing platform.

November 8, 2024,🐾🥾 Wanderung durch Burgstädt 🥾🐾

🥾🐾 Today we went on a short but varied hike through Burgstädt. Who knows what is growing in picture 18? I think it is field radish or radishes or something similar. There are also pods hanging on the branches. I thought it was great to see a field blooming like that in November. 🐶🌻
