Great panorama and at the end of the beautiful bridge there is a rustic beer garden. 🍻😎

Rochsburg Castle Gate

Highlight • Castle

The Rochsburg is always worth a visit. The facility is beautifully restored and well maintained. A museum and a chocolate factory can be found inside the castle.

View of the Göhren Viaduct

Highlight • Viewpoint

Very impressive! The view of the weir, the viaduct, and the other railway line from the road bridge is the most beautiful, in my opinion.

The suspension bridge in Rochlitz is a magical attraction. From there you have a great view of the castle.

Göhren Viaduct

Highlight • Bridge

The Göhrener Viaduct is one of the most impressive German bridge structures from the early days of railway construction.
It connects the district of Göhren in Wechselburg and the district of Cossen in Lunzenau. At a height of 68 m and on two floors, it now spans the Zwickauer Mulde with a length of 381 m. The foundation stone was laid on May 27, 1869 and was completed two years later. At times, the imposing structure was worked with up to 5,000 workers and 340 horses. Until the renovation in 1982-86, the original length was 512 m.
Today the Chemnitz-Leipzig railway line crosses the Göhrener Bridge.

In this wonderful weather, walking through the autumn forest and mostly along the hollow is a pleasure. Unfortunately, the tour suddenly came to an end after more than half of it. After a bicycle breakdown, nothing more could be done and my wife had to pick me up in the car. What a pity.
