Hiking

The St. Wolfgang Church in Schneeberg is one of the largest late Gothic hall churches in the Saxon region. It was built at the beginning of the 16th century on parts of a smaller previous building and is considered an early type of a Reformation church building. Because of its dominant location on the summit of the Schneeberg, which was cut through in past centuries for ore mining from pits and tunnels, it is also known as the miner's cathedral.
