January 1, 2026, Elsterwerda Castle

To mark its 20th anniversary in 2013, the Elsterschloss-Gymnasium Support Association commissioned the creation and installation of an art installation on the grounds of the present-day Elsterschloss-Gymnasium. As part of the "Art at the Castle" project, a bronze casting model of Elsterschloss Elsterwerda was created. This model provides information about the former and current uses of the building complex, as well as its historical context throughout its existence, thus further enriching the castle's presence. https://www.elsterschloss.de/kunstobjekt.html

Directly on the beach of the Grünewalder Lauch camping park you will find this magnificent panorama of the approximately 100 hectare lake in Brandenburg near Grünewalde on the eastern edge of the Niederlausitzer Heidelandschaft nature park.

The number 175 and the state abbreviation K.P./K.S. are carved on the opposite side. Seven smaller stones are placed between them at irregular intervals.
