September 13, 2025, Radeberg Market Square

This is where the famous Radeberger beer comes from. Otherwise, it's a great market square and home to several sights.

Town Church. "To the Holy Name of God" in Radeberg. Information: The foundation stone for a stone church was laid in 1486, and it was completed in 1498. The tall spire was demolished in 1611 due to structural instability and replaced with a new, flat, truncated cupola covered in slate. During the town fire of July 13, 1714, the church interior was destroyed, and reconstruction was slow and hesitant.

1486 is considered the year in which the foundation stone of the current town church was laid. "To the Holy Name of God" in Radeberg. The year 1498, which can be read above the old portal in the current band room - the old sacristy - is probably the year in which the building, which began in 1486, was completed. Burned down in 1714, new building and consecration in 1730. The renewed and expanded Herbrig organ was consecrated in 1975. Since then, the new church windows, the new altar and the renewed Herbrig organ, together with the interior paint and the new pews, have characterized the interior of the church, in which the pulpit and baptismal font from 1730 are particularly impressive. https://www.bierstadt-radeberg.de/index.php/kircheninformationen

The war memorial in memory of the victims of the First World War in the Saxon town of Radeberg was officially unveiled in 1927 and is a listed monument. The memorial near the Protestant church is considered a connected memorial complex together with a memorial for the victims of the Second World War on Pulsnitzer Strasse. The larger-than-life sculpture shows a Valkyrie who wants to lead a fallen soldier to Valhalla according to Nordic mythology. The memorial stands on a cuboid-shaped base, behind which an arched wall extends. Eight copper plates were originally attached to this wall and to the sides of the base, on which the names of almost 500 Radeberg casualties were listed. The inscription on the base reads: WE ARE THE SACRIFICE YOU ARE THE HOPE The memorial, base and wall were built from rammed concrete. A small rectangular square was created in front of the memorial. The natural slope of the terrain was compensated for by stairs. wikipedia

November 17, 2024, Radeberg Town Hall

A town hall on the Radeberg market was first mentioned in 1517. A town fire destroyed the entire city center in 1714, and the fire also completely destroyed the first town hall. Reconstruction was still ongoing when the town burned down again on May 18, 1741, and the town hall fell victim to the flames again. The town hall, designed by Samuel Locke, was completed in 1769. The growing town required more and more space for the town administration, so the town hall was constantly being expanded and remodeled. A third floor was added to the building in 1822 and a "classical pilaster strip" was added. The building was extensively renovated in the late 1990s and early 2000s, and the facade was restored to its neo-baroque design from 1904. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markt_(Radeberg)
