Elbe Gate of Hartenfels Castle

Highlight • Castle

Architecturally fantastic is this access to the interior of the castle from the Elbe side. It is located directly on the Elbe cycle path, although you have to overcome a few small steps. The portal is definitely worth seeing.

June 22, 2022,Landesgartenschau & Stadtbesichtigung Torgau

The town of Torgau is worth seeing. Especially the great castle. There is a great view from the tower. However, you can safely omit the State Horticultural Show, unless you like tombstones and weeds. I have more flowers in the garden. The area has been improved and now offers many recreational opportunities for children and young people.

Flower and landscape garden show in Torgau: dignified, decelerating, sometimes very colorless, subtle highlights, for the frugal and undemanding garden lover.
Tracked the bus ride on the return trip to the large car park. 🤭

Today it is not a hike, but a visit to the state garden show in Torgau with a small detour to the old town. Weather was perfect, not as hot as the last few days.

With a total of 14 changing flower shows, the flower hall shows a great variety.

August 21, 2022,Besuch von Schloss und Landesgartenschau in Torgau

We looked at two exhibitions in the castle. Sleeping Beauty and Princes as Gardeners.
The former can definitely be admired with children.
In the castle, with "Wendelstein", the DEFA fairy tale classic of the same name 🌹🧚‍♀️ was also filmed.. definitely worth seeing.
Wendelstein in the title picture.
A visit to the castle tower was also a must. Great view …
