The ascent to the tower 1.,- p.E. It's worth it for us, great view from the tower. Next to the tower also a public toilet. Good refreshment possible in the restaurant.

The renaissance castle of Pulsnitz, 25 kilometers northeast of Dresden, is the historical setting for a demanding and comprehensive rehabilitation medicine that is available to patients insured by law or privately. The Klinik Schloss Pulsnitz was completely renovated, and it received an extension with swimming pool, gymnasium and other therapy rooms and patient rooms. At the latest with the final completion in January 1993, the clinic will belong to the most modern rehabilitation facilities in East and West.

Pulsnitz — Gingerbread Town

Pulsnitz was first mentioned on May 19, 1225. A Sorbian settlement with a moated castle had already developed here. Pulsnitz became the seat of a noble family who had a small castle built here (Wikipedia).

Pulsnitz market square with fountain

Highlight • Monument

The attraction of the marketplace is the octagonal sandstone market fountain from 1797. It is characterized by a newly cast fountain bowl based on old models with four water-spewing snake necks. The people of Pulsnitz celebrated its inauguration after extensive reconstruction in May 1995 with a traditional town festival. Since the complete renovation of the square in 1993, new flower beds and globe maple trees, as well as comfortable benches, have adorned the traffic-calmed area.
