Dröda Church

Highlight • Religious Site

The church at Dröda ...
is a small village church from Diabasmauerwerk. It stands directly below the dam of the built from 1964 to 1971, 18 million cubic meters Feilebachtalsperre (drinking water dam).


The current church was consecrated on October 23, 1887. The old church has gone up in flames trying to get a hot air balloon up.
About the history of the place
The community has a varied history behind it. The place belonged in the 16th century to the parish of Planschwitz and was later long time associated with Bösenbrunn. Since the mid-1980s Dröda with the two sister communities Bobenneukirchen and Wiedersberg (including Heinersgrün) together.
Since 1 January 1996, these three are now to a community called Ev.-Luth. Parish of Bobenneukirchen. Now it is important - in this community and also within the sister organization with Eichigt and Triebel / Posseck / Sachsgrün to cultivate and develop their own, as well as to participate in the common.
Dröda has a very beautiful church, has young families and people who have learned to deal with many changes. All this should be able to grow. You are welcome to build community.
In the last 100 years the church and the place have seen a lot - look at this gem - and help - to make it shine again in full glory. (HP)

View of the Pirk Reservoir

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

After an ascent you can enjoy the view of the Pirk dam here. It is the second largest dam in the Saxon Vogtland and a popular local recreation area. Here you can row, swim, fish and stand-up paddling. Those who want to spend the night directly on the lake will find an inexpensive option at the campsite or in the Pirk Youth Hostel.

Pirk Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

On the north bank of the dam there are two beautiful bathing spots that are ideal for a rest or even as a destination for a tour. On the shore of the lake you can relax comfortably in the grass and refresh yourself while bathing in the cool water.

If you need a little more action, you can work out on the volleyball or soccer field. Children can get rid of their excess energy in the playground.

There is a restaurant or a kiosk on both beaches if you want to strengthen yourself. Free toilets are also available.

Pirk Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

Personally, the reservoir does not allow me. He is not dog friendly and seems very overweight. The bungalows are close together. Toddlers should not walk around outside without supervision, as there are no steep slopes other than a shield.
