Coswig

Coswig lies on the edge of the Elbe Valley between Dresden and Meißen. The town is surrounded by vineyards and offers a breathtaking view of the picturesque Elbe valley. Here you will find numerous historic buildings such as Wackerbarth Castle or the Großsedlitz Baroque Garden.

One of the best-known cultural highlights in Coswig is the annual wine festival in September. Here you can taste local wines and enjoy traditional food. If you are interested in history, you should definitely visit the museum "Alte Lateinschule".

For outdoor activities, hikes through the vineyards are particularly beautiful - especially in autumn during the grape harvest or in spring when the cherry trees are in blossom. The nearby Saxon Switzerland National Park also offers opportunities for hiking, cycling and climbing.

Even when it rains, Coswig has plenty to offer: The leisure pool "Wellenspiel" with sauna and wellness area invites you to relax or you can take a trip to neighbouring Dresden to visit museums or go shopping.

Culinary delights in Coswig are mainly regional cuisine - why not try the Saxon potato specialities or the famous Saxon Quarkkeulchen.

Coswig is worth a visit at any time of year. However, it is especially beautiful in spring and autumn, when the landscape in the vineyards is particularly colourful. Another tip: the "Lößnitzblick" vantage point offers a breathtaking view of the Elbe Valley - an absolute must for every visitor!
