Bridge over the Freiberger Mulde

Highlight • Bridge

A very nice bridge over the Mulde, located directly on the Mulde sports field.
With a beautiful view of the Freiberg Mulde and the freely accessible skate track. 👍

View of the Mulde Valley and Nossen Castle from Bastei Nossen

Highlight • Viewpoint

The rock of the "Bastei Nossen" is a very nice resting place to linger with seating, as well as a wonderful view of the Mulde valley, the surrounding landscape up to Nossen Castle. 👍

The impressive Nossen Castle complex rises on a rocky outcrop above the Freiberger Mulde. Immerse yourself in the mysterious history of the impressive Renaissance castle. The drawing “View of Nossen in Saxony with Castle and Bridge” (Kupferstichkabinett Berlin) shows you Caspar David Friedrich’s diverse artistic interests and his enthusiasm for the region.

Altzella Abbey

Highlight • Historical Site

The monastery location is well worth seeing! The former Cistercian abbey was one of the most important monasteries in Central Saxony in the Middle Ages. The terrain is huge. Unfortunately, only a few buildings are well preserved. But it all gives an impressive overview of the “small town”.

Romanesque Portal at Altzella Abbey

Highlight • Historical Site

Originally, this portal was the only entrance to the monastery, which was surrounded by a wall about a kilometer long. It was built at the end of the 12th century. The building material consists of brick and Rochlitz porphyry.
