Rauenstein Castle is a castle complex above the Flöha between Lengefeld and Reifland. A convalescent home for children during the GDR era, it was returned to the original owner after reunification and has been privately owned ever since.

Update June 20, 2022: after the owner's death, the castle was sold and is open to the public for events, weddings, etc.
