A bench somewhat hidden away from the well-known and popular sights of the Bismarck Tower and Spitzhaus, where you can relax and enjoy the view over the vineyards...

The white Radebeul water tower, also known as the French Tower, visible from afar on the edge of the slope in Radebeul-West, with its red conical roof is a cultural monument that characterizes the townscape.[1] The address Am Wasserturm (formerly "at the end of Burgstrasse 5") belongs to Kötzschenbroda Oberort and is located in the historic vineyard landscape of Radebeul, a conservation area.[2] The water tower is the only large building in the Radebeul-West forest park. Which in turn belongs to the Lößnitz nature reserve.

At this point, on the balcony of Radebeul, the first building of the observatory was built in 1959. It was a wooden hut that could be driven off on rails. Almost ten years later, the building complex of the new building was inaugurated. In the years that followed, further modifications or redesigns took place and more telescopes or other instruments were added again and again. A visit is very worthwhile.

The bronze “The Stargazers” from 1971, placed in front of the observatory, is also nice to look at.

Wackerbarth Castle is, of course, the epitome of Saxon wine. The winery is located in a well-kept garden. Guided tours are offered here and you can also eat in the restaurant. You can find all the information at: schloss-wackerbarth.de.

Quasi a classic way; not much to say about it ;-)

Today we redeemed a birthday present.
While completing small tasks, we were able to learn a lot of interesting things about our hometown.
It was a lovely tour in perfect weather 🌞 through beautiful residential areas and vineyards, where the winemakers are already busy harvesting the grapes 🍇.

A rare highlight was the inspection of the Radebeul water tower, including a tour of the local water management.

A little scavenger hunt (🤫) through the Radebeul vineyards, intended as a gift from my dearest mother.

A nice round, mainly along the Saxon Wine Trail, with beautiful distant views (if the weather is fine), fitness training and several rest stops at various wine bars.

The next stage of the Weinwanderweg is already calling out loud to me😄

Autumn time🍁🍂 is wine or vineyard time🍇 - so off to the Elbe valley in Radebeul. We parked in the large parking lot next to Wackerbart Castle. Then we went through the still sleepy complex of the castle directly into its vineyards up to the observatory. Everywhere we met hard-working people who were busy picking the ripe grapes.
Now we …

Beautiful hike from Radebeul Ost through the vineyards on the wine trail to Wackerbarth Castle with some steep ups and downs.

We did this tour in May, but it's only now after almost two months that I'm making it public. In between there is a change of tablet and getting used to a new one.
Unfortunately it works with that
Image editing still isn't quite right and that's why they are
Pictures not as I would like.
From Wackerbarth Castle you …

Today we went on a little pleasure tour through the Radebeul vineyards in beautiful weather at the beginning of autumn. 🍇🌤
We started at the train station 🚉 Radebeul Ost and mostly hiked along the Saxon Wine Hiking Trail.
Of course it was part of it to stop off at various wineries and broom taverns. 🍷😋
It is therefore definitely …
