Baroque Garden at Rittergut Kössern

Highlight • Natural Monument

The terraced garden at the Kössern manor is a jewel in the village of master builders. One of the founders of German classicism, Friedrich Wilhelm von Erdmannsdorff, sketched out the first plans for the Wörlitz Garden Kingdom here.

There are four different garden worlds on the 2 hectare site:

1. the former farm courtyard with the high plateau

2. the terraced garden bordering the Mulde floodplain

3. the fountain garden reconstructed according to historical models and

4. the overgrown park with obelisks

Kössern Hunting Lodge

Highlight • Castle

The hunting lodge, built in the style of a large manor house around 1709 - often referred to as a hunting lodge - is considered an outstanding gem of baroque architecture in the Mulde valley. The architect was Matthäus Daniel Pöppelmann, chief court huntsman and elder minister in the cabinet of the Saxon Elector Friedrich August I and later King of Poland August II - known as "August the Strong".

The high mansard roof greets visitors from afar. The tightly structured, richly painted facade is in perfect harmony. The foyer on the ground floor was supported on both sides by four strong pillars to allow a view of the Great Garden. An extensive staircase, preserved in its original form, leads to the upper floor with a surprisingly stately ballroom, which is crowned with lavish stucco and a large ceiling painting.
Today, guided tours in historical costumes, concerts, events and rooms for weddings are offered. In addition, a tourist information point (outpost of the Grimma city information office) awaits you in the Kössern hunting lodge, which is located directly on the Mulde cycle path.

Confluence of the Zwickauer and Freiberger Mulde (Sermuth Mulde Confluence)

Highlight • River

Here the Zwickau and Freiberg Mulde rivers merge to form the Mulde and end in the Elbe near Roßlau. A small rest area to linger after you have made both journeys and want to review everything once again.
