Rakotz Bridge (Devil's Bridge)

Highlight • Bridge

Between Azalea and Rhododendron Park you will find one of the most bizarre bridges in the world. If you ask locals for the bridge, they sometimes look questionable. In the vernacular, it is often referred to as the Devil's Bridge. Namely, especially at sunset, it receives a devilishly red color. Devilishly beautiful.

View of Muskau Castle

Highlight • Castle

The castle was destroyed in 1945 and was a ruin. You could not imagine that the castle would be rebuilt again. The construction was a tremendous financial and craft achievement.

The old and the new castle are reflected in the lake. Very nice photo opportunities

I can recommend the cafe. Both the ice cream and the cappucino are good. For some reason Vorwerg is written here with a "g".

Cycle path along the B156

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Cycle path along the road along the B156 between Weißwasser and Krauschwitz.
Nothing special in itself, except for an encounter with the forest railway.
