The Pulverhäuschen is a historic building that was used in earlier times for storing explosives. The explosives stored there were used to remove ice jams or ice barriers on the Mulde. The building is made of irregular rubble masonry and is covered by a pointed barrel vault. The cornerstones at the building corners, the belt course at the base, the projecting eaves, and the two-rowed coverings are made of red bricks. The outer surface of the barrel vault is plastered. The Pulverhäuschen shows numerous damages, including defects in the masonry, damaged or improperly renewed joints, crumbling plaster on the barrel vault, and a clearly visible subsidence due to insufficient foundation.

A beautiful photo opportunity. Sometimes decorated as a candle during the Christmas season. Across the street on the shore are bars and restaurants and a playground. It's quite busy in good weather.

You can always find a nice place to take a break by the beach/water and you can also cool off here on hot days.

The staircase construction is also impressive. Don't be fooled, it's a double whammy. I only noticed it when I came down, and my head was confused for a moment. 🤣
