Luther Was Impressed

The nearest larger cities are Eilenburg, Leipzig, Bad Düben, Bad Schmiedeberg, Herzberg, Bad Liebenwerda, or Riesa, making a city trip to Saxony a great option. In Torgau, you can visit around 500 architectural monuments from the Late Gothic and Renaissance periods. All sights are easily accessible from your private accommodation in Torgau. Near the Elbe is Hartenfels Castle, which today houses changing exhibitions. The Torgau Castle Chapel was even praised by Martin Luther: "Solomon has built no temple as beautiful as Torgau has." Luther himself consecrated the chapel at Hartenfels Castle on October 5, 1544. The Torgau Museum Trail, which includes six significant stations, becomes exciting. This includes the Electoral Chancellery with the City and Cultural History Museum. In the Katharina-Luther-Stube, you can visit the death house of Katharina von Bora, the widow of Martin Luther. The brewing museum excellently documents Torgau's brewing art from the 15th and 16th centuries. The Lapidarium and the Hausmannsturm in front of Hartenfels Castle were once the residence of the court jester Claus and are also part of the tour. The same goes for the historic craftsman's house and the restored Mayor Ringenhain House, one of the most important Renaissance townhouses in Central Germany. In the center of Torgau, a visit to Germany's oldest toy store, Carl Loebner, is worthwhile. Further south, you can visit the Großer Teich, which covers an area of 175 hectares. Every year in August, the Endless Summer Open Air takes place, a two-day music festival. Rock concerts even take place several times a month at the Brückenkopf Torgau. Active vacationers can use the Elbe Cycle Path on the outskirts of the city. The Luther Trail also connects Torgau with Dreiheide and Schildau. The WasserWanderRastPlatz is located directly on the Elbe. From here, you can embark on exploration tours by boat. If you enjoy cycling, the Elbe Cycle Path is ideal for extended tours. Rent a cozy accommodation or a vacation apartment or house according to your personal preferences with modern facilities and at an affordable price, and enjoy a vacation tailored to your personal wishes and explore excursion destinations in the surrounding area with your family in the North Saxony district.
