One of Nünchritz's best-known attractions is Scharfenberg Castle. The impressive building was built in the 16th century and today houses a museum with interesting exhibitions on the history of the region.

The town church of St. Marien is also worth a visit. The Gothic building from the 15th century impresses with its ornate decorations and beautiful stained glass.

In addition to the historical sights, there are also many opportunities for outdoor activities in Nünchritz and the surrounding area. In summer, you can cycle along the Elbe cycle path or canoe on the river.

In autumn, a hike through the autumn-coloured nature or a hot air balloon ride over the vineyards of the nearby Meißner Land is a good idea.

If it rains, a visit to the adventure pool "Tiffy's World" in Riesa or a tour of the porcelain museum in Meißen is recommended.

Culinary Nünchritz also has a lot to offer: Be sure to try the famous Dresdner Christstollen or enjoy regional specialities such as Sauerbraten or Radebeul wine.

It is especially beautiful in Nünchritz in spring, when the cherry trees blossom and the landscape is bathed in a pink and white sea of flowers. But the destination also has its charm in summer and autumn and is definitely worth a trip.

Overall, Nünchritz offers something for everyone: history, nature, culinary delights and outdoor activities. A perfect destination for anyone who wants to get an authentic insight into Saxony away from the big tourist crowds.

    Sehr schöne Runde links und rechts der Elbe. Fahrtechnisch haben wir zwischen Leutewitz und Riesa (Stadtpark) doch die Straße am Flugplatz benutzt (Wegezustand). Gerne wieder.

    Eine schöne Tour, die ich in Riesa an der Fähre beginnen wollte, da ich von der anderen Elbseite komme, wollte ich mit der Fähre übersetzen. Leider kam ich zu spät, von 12 bis 13 Uhr ist Mittagspause. Bitte beachtet es, wenn ihr diese Tour fahren wollt. Damit bin ich über Moritz, Nünchritz nach Diesbar-Seusslitz, habe da übergesetzt und bin wieder zurück nach Riesa zur Fähre.
