Like so many buildings in Zittau, the St. John's Church is a new building from the period after the Seven Years War. The construction started in 1766, but due to static problems the construction was delayed. Preussen's chief building director Karl Friedrich Schinkel was added, who finally completed the construction with his Zittau pupil Carl August Schramm. The south tower of the church can even be climbed. From the top you have a great view of the unique old town of Zittau. Church and tower are open all year.

Zittau Town Hall

Highlight • Monument

After Zittau had been almost completely destroyed in the Seven Years War by the Austrian army, the citizens began in the late 18th century with the reconstruction. Construction of the New Town Hall began in 1840. Just five years later, the impressive building, which was based on building plans by Karl Friedrich Schinkel, was completed and opened.

Zittau's historic old town

Highlight • Historical Site

A beautiful city with poor bike lanes. Fortunately, most sidewalks are now only signposted as such, with the additional information "open to cyclists." A good solution for children.

July 27, 2024,Zittau 🕍 mit dem "Stadtwächterzug" 🚂

The "city guide train" actually starts at the narrow-gauge railway station in Oybin. From there you go to Zittau with the Bimmelboahn 😉 The way back from Zittau to Oybin was therefore not a hike......🚂 😇

We went to Oybin today, started in Zittau with the narrow-gauge railway to Oybin, did a long hike there and then went back.
The weather was good, there were lots of people out and about.
The train was quite full but when we were hiking it all went away and we were able to look at everything in peace.

October 5, 2025,4. Regenwanderung von Bertsdorf nach Zittau

Today we took another trip on our 10-trip train ticket and boarded at 11:19 a.m. at Zittau South station and traveled to Oybin.
A few kilometers later, it started raining quite heavily, and we reconsidered our plan...
So: We drove back to Bertsdorf station and from there walked toward the Café im Apfelhaus. Visiting and making a reservation is recommended. …
