Guided Story
Imagine standing here in the year 1100, surrounded by knights and noble ladies going about their daily lives. As you look around, you might hear the echo of horse hooves on cobblestones. This castle, Roßlau, was once a bustling fortress safeguarding the land around it. Did you know there are rumored to be secret tunnels beneath these thick stone walls? They say they were used as escape routes. Look up at the tower, where guards once kept watch for approaching threats. Today, you can almost hear the tales of glory and betrayal whispering through the stones. Behind you, notice the river—it was a crucial trade route, bringing life and prosperity to the castle.
