Very beautiful castle, but the German Agricultural Museum is also super interesting. In various places in the town, you can visit the knight's estate, the farmstead, the bakery, etc. with interiors and be transported to the era.

Small, fine dam, originally built to supply process water to the former textile factories downstream of the Pleisse.

A well-maintained tower hut with a view of the Ore Mountains, weather permitting. Accessible by bike or car. Parking is available across the street on the dirt road.

A beautiful old mill. You used to be able to visit the inside, but I don't know if that's still possible.
