Rakotz Bridge (Devil's Bridge)

Highlight • Bridge

Between Azalea and Rhododendron Park you will find one of the most bizarre bridges in the world. If you ask locals for the bridge, they sometimes look questionable. In the vernacular, it is often referred to as the Devil's Bridge. Namely, especially at sunset, it receives a devilishly red color. Devilishly beautiful.

View of Muskau Castle

Highlight • Castle

The castle was destroyed in 1945 and was a ruin. You could not imagine that the castle would be rebuilt again. The construction was a tremendous financial and craft achievement.
