Saturn Monument at Treuen Castle (Vogtland Planetary Trail)

Highlight • Monument

The Vogtland planetary path leads in a star shape to the planetarium in Rodewisch, whose dome symbolizes our sun. In relation to this, Mercury, Venus and Earth are also in Rodewisch. Mars in Auerbach at the castle tower and Jupiter in Wernesgrün at the brewery estate. The Saturn was placed on the Treuener castle grounds. Uranus is in Plauen and Neptune in Adorf. By definition, Pluto has not been a planet since 2006. (planetenwege.u-dreher.de/de0/08228_rodewisch.html)

The pillar marks station 143 Wilhelmshöhe of the Royal Saxon Triangulation.
"The Royal Saxon Triangulation (here with its historical proper name) is a land survey carried out between 1862 and 1890 in the territory of the Kingdom of Saxony, simultaneously creating a trigonometric network.


The goal was to scientifically and geodetically accurately record the state territory and to create the basis for the production of accurate map series by establishing permanently marked control points. The Großenhainer Grundlinie was determined as the scale-defining base." - de.wikipedia.org/wiki/K%C3%B6niglich-S%C3%A4chsische_Triangulirung

From the station, the neighboring stations Carlshöhe, Marienhöhe, Schönheide, Wenzelstein, Kemmlerberg, and Kuhberg were sighted.
Unfortunately, not much can be seen of it anymore, even from the tower.

Perlaser Tower

Highlight • Monument

The pearl laser tower was originally made of wood. A severe storm in 1897 razed it to the ground. In 1907 it was rebuilt - this time from sturdy stone. To this day it stands on the 493 meter high Wilhelmshöhe and gives you a beautiful view of the green.
