Burg Stolpen - Auf den Spuren der Gräfin Cosel
On Saturday, November 25th, we will travel through the centuries during our visit to Stolpen. The town is famous for its fortress and the tragic fate of a fascinating woman - Anna Constantia von Cosel. For 49 years, the most famous mistress of Augustus the Strong was imprisoned in Stolpen Castle. The castle fountain with its 82 meters is the deepest natural stone basalt fountain on earth! For the first time, the name "basalt" was used for the black-bluish columns of Stolpen. From here the name went around the world.
