It's nice to look at when driving past. Also worth a visit (possibly rather outside of a road bike trip 😁)

Mulde River Near Podelwitz

Highlight • River

A large number of imposing monasteries, palaces and castles do the honor along the Mulde. The beautifully restored moated castle Podelwitz with its striking appearance and lovely details in the area (from the rustic pigeon house, to garden bridges to the inviting open-air gastronomy, some of which is located under huge trees) fits in here without a gap.
