Bismarck Tower, Höfgen

Highlight • Monument

Had the beautiful tower included in a tour of Grimma, the tower is beautifully situated and open to explore.

Pöppelmann Bridge (Grimma)

Highlight • Bridge

If you had to choose between the concrete bridge and the baroque Pöppelmann Bridge, it would be clear.
It's a shame that such architecture no longer exists.
Great bridge with hollows and city views.

Then the path continued along the main road, which wasn't very nice. Luckily there weren't that many cars on the road. The last few kilometers went through a …
