Circular Hike near Demitz-Thumitz The Klosterberg owes its name to the fact that, from the Middle Ages onward, it belonged for centuries to the Cistercian convent of St. Marienstern in Panschwitz-Kuckau. The mountain hut with a lookout tower, built in 1904, was blown up shortly before the end of World War II; in 1980, a replacement building without a tower was opened, which is unfortunately closed at the moment.
