Today we took the short drive over to Colditz again to visit the Schloss and take the 13:00 guided tour. Priced at €9 the tour lasts an hour and gives you the basics of the history of the castle and its’ use as prisoner of war camp Oflag IV-C during World War 2.
There is a two hour extended tour available too. If I were to go again I would plump for this.
Today we drove, light engine, an hour or so over to Meissen, Lower Saxony.
Route To Meissen
The town sits on the River Elbe a few kilometres north west of Dresden. The purpose of our trip was to visit the House Of Meissen, the home of the famous porcelain maker. Porcelain has been produced in the town since 1710.
