Oberwiesenthal

Berlin, German's capital, is situated roughly 150 miles (241 kilometers) to the north of Oberwiesenthal.

Do visit the the Fichtelberg - Oberwiesenthal Ski Resort when you are in Oberwiesenthal.

Try not to limit yourself to Oberwiesenthal, because Saxony contains plenty of natural and man-made attractions just waiting to be explored. Take a trip to the Ore Mountain Museum and Adam Ries Museum in Annaberg-Buchholz, approximately 11 miles (18 kilometers) to the south of Oberwiesenthal.

Rent a vehicle and visit Bad Elster, a transport and retail hub for the area, about 35 miles (56 kilometers) away from Oberwiesenthal. This bigger city has a wide range of points of interest, including Badeplatz, Naturtheater and Albert Park. Lutheran Church of the Holy Trinity and The Royal Spa House are just a handful of the many other interesting visitor attractions in Bad Elster.

Enjoy a moment of quiet contemplation in Saxony's churches. Learn something new by spending a few hours at Saxony's history museums and art galleries.

Saxony is a good place to join up with a number of city walking tours, culinary tours and segway tours that are offered here. The Oberwiesenthal area is a good place to visit to get into the great outdoors and make the most of winter. When the mercury drops, pull on your woollens and try skiing or snowboarding.

Before you head back to your friends and family at home, you'll be bidding Oberwiesenthal a sad Tschüss (farewell).
