View of Sachsenburg Castle

Highlight • Castle

Sachsenburg Castle rises near Frankenberg/Sa. on a rock above the Zschopau. The castle complex, which was built in the early 13th century at the latest, was converted into a palace in the 1480s. The complex is one of the few examples of a completely preserved late Gothic residential palace in Saxony.
19th/20th century
Edit
After it was given up as an administrative headquarters (1864), a phase of varied uses began. From 1864 onwards, the castle was used as a detention centre for young female prisoners and in 1867 a penal and correctional facility was set up here. The property remained reserved for prisoners only until 1926, although from 1914 onwards these were prisoners of war (Russians, including interned academics and students from the Freiberg Mining Academy, Englishmen, Serbs).


From May 1933 it served the NSDAP as a district leadership school for the NS Women's League of Saxony. Towards the end of the Second World War, the castle was used as a bacteriological institute...

Sachsenburg Concentration Camp Memorial

Highlight • Historical Site

Oh, in the region around Frankenberg, history has been contributed that one cannot be proud of. However, it should still be remembered so that such incidents and times no longer happen and arise.
