Battle of Torgau Monument on the Süptitzer Heights

Highlight • Monument

On November 3rd, 1860, 100 years after the battle on the Süptitzer Heights, a
Monument unveiled. It is reminiscent of the battle of Torgau with the main scene on the Süptizer heights. The column carried a Prussian eagle, which was connected by chains to eight cannons. In 1952 the eagle as well as the chains and cannons were removed for metal procurement. In 1990 a new eagle was placed on the column.

A Paltrock windmill is a modified post windmill in which the mill building was placed on a roller ring. This structural change allowed the mill to be enlarged and accommodate more machines or milling operations.

Torgauer Ratsforst

Forest

33.1 km

North Saxony (TZ). Our area was inhabited thousands of years ago. This is proven in particular by old burial sites, including burial mounds in the Pflückuff forest in Torgau, in the farmer's forest south of Schildau and in the Colbitzwald near Staupitz, in the Falkenberg and Falkenstruth forests near Döbrichau, Roitzsch and Gräfendorf. The most numerous and impressive prehistoric archaeological monuments in the Dahlener Heide come from the Bronze Age (2000 to 750 BC) with around 100 burial mounds. Whether from the older, middle or younger Bronze Age cannot be decided here.

Great Pond, Torgau

Highlight • Lake

At the end of the 15th century, the brothers Ernst and Albrecht von Sachsen had an artificial pond built near Torgau by decree from the Electorate of Saxony. It should be used for fish farming and thus supply the farm. During the fortress period, the Great Pond also served as a water reservoir for filling the moats. Today it is a dam and flood protection system and at the same time an important nature reserve and local recreation area. The Great Pond is still used for fish farming.

Then as now, the dam is filled with water from the Black Graben. The system also dams the Zinna flood (Red Ford). The Great Pond has an average depth of 1.34 meters and covers an area of 175 hectares. The barrier structure is a five meter high earthen dam.

Port of Torgau

Highlight • Structure

View of the harbor from the other side.
The port of Torgau is a universal port with a favorable location in the economic area of Leipzig/Halle. The central location of the port and direct connection to the federal roads B87, B182 and B183 as well as to the core network of the DB AG represent optimal location conditions in trimodal traffic.


In the port of Torgau there are efficient facilities for the handling of general, bulk and heavy goods as well as containers with a lifting capacity of the cranes up to 35 tons.

In addition to outdoor storage areas, the port of Torgau also offers areas for the settlement of companies and a public weighbridge for trucks.

Since 2007, the port of Torgau has been directly connected to the North German seaports with the ETS Elbe (Ecological Transport Service) inland waterway line. Further relations can be served via the HUB Magdeburg.
