Elbe Gate of Hartenfels Castle

Highlight • Castle

Architecturally fantastic is this access to the interior of the castle from the Elbe side. It is located directly on the Elbe cycle path, although you have to overcome a few small steps. The portal is definitely worth seeing.

Hartenfels Castle

Highlight • Castle

Hartenfels Castle, steeped in history, is considered a masterpiece of the Renaissance, but it is not only a special place from an architectural point of view. History was also truly made here, because in the first half of the 16th century Torgau advanced to become the political center of the Reformation and Martin Luther personally inaugurated the castle chapel in 1544.

Bear enclosure at Hartenfels Castle

Highlight • Structure

In 1452 there was already the first bear pit at Hartenfels Castle. The tradition has been preserved to this day, although it was long interrupted between 1760 and 1950. In 2015 the ditch was renovated and currently three bears live there: schloss-hartenfels.de/schlossgeschichten_baeren.html.
