View of Rathen and Altrathen Castle

Highlight • Viewpoint

In contrast to the neighboring rock castle Neurathen, little is known about the history of this castle. Presumably it was built in the 11th century.

View of Königstein Fortress

Highlight • Viewpoint

Of Elberadweg you can of course also up. But, if you have miles left, the best point is to take a look at the fortress. Imposing - summer and winter.
