The Wendish Tower, or Serbska wěža in Sorbian, is part of Bautzen's medieval city fortifications. It is located on the northeastern edge of the old town and is now structurally connected to Gottfried Semper's Old Barracks (Stara kaserna). For centuries, the Via Regia ran through the adjacent Wendish Gate, which no longer exists. See: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wendischer_Turm

The ponds of Brösa were created for fish farming. When the paths between the ponds are dry, you can take a short detour to admire the beautiful ponds, often covered in reeds.
