Taura Village Museum and Fire Station

Highlight • Historical Site

Little Taura has a village museum - something like that must be worth a highlight... The museum reminds of life in the village in earlier times with objects, photos and texts. It is right next to the church and therefore at the starting point of my hike. Guided tours can be requested on the Taura website.

At this point you are in the center of the Dahlen Heath and six different paths come together here. It was an important meeting point for hunters and loggers in the past - and because there used to be a huge oak tree, people always met “at the hunting oak”.

The old oak no longer stands today; a wooden memorial column was erected in its place in 1763 to commemorate the Saxon Elector Friedrich August. Today you can admire a replica of this pillar, which was inaugurated in 1995 - the present-day hunting empire - and take a break in the large hut.

Lampertswalde Castle Park

Highlight • Historical Site

A beautiful, small and well-kept park. It has beautiful "eye-catcher" inserted, which can be discovered on a tour. Then you can treat yourself to a delicious piece of cake in the rustic ambience of the Burg Cafe.

Seven Stone Dwarves

Highlight • Natural Monument

The so-called seven dwarfs are the fragments of a boulder that was blown up in 1937 to straighten the Dahle. The stone pieces made of red and white granite surround the small, inviting wooden bench, on which you can take a break.

Small shelter

Highlight • Mountain Hut

At the intersection of A-Weg and Belgernschen Strasse you will find a small refuge, open to the intersection, with space for two to three people. Opposite there is another, albeit uncovered, bench for nice weather.
