Rochlitz Castle, Medieval castle in Rochlitz, Germany.
The castle complex extends over 90 meters in length and features two distinct towers named Light Jupe and Dark Jupe on a hill above Zwickau Mulde.
Originally constructed in the 10th century as an imperial fortress to control the West Slavs, the castle became property of the Wettin margraves in 1143.
The castle museum displays exhibits about the Wettin dynasty through eight rooms, presenting furniture, artifacts, and historical documents from different periods.
Visitors can access guided tours of the castle grounds, including the Princes' House with its restored aristocratic chambers and medieval dining hall.
The castle served as both a residence for Saxon nobility and later transformed into a governmental administrative center and district court in the 18th century.
