Schloss Voigtsberg, Medieval castle in Oelsnitz, Germany

The stone castle contains multiple architectural elements including a keep, defensive walls, round towers, and Saint George's Chapel spread across different levels.

Founded around 1200 by the Vögte von Straßberg, the castle received its first documented mention in 1249 through lord Eberhardus de Voitesberk.

The Princes' Hall displays a notable Renaissance painting by Titian depicting Archduchess Katharina of Austria among other historical artworks.

The castle welcomes visitors from Tuesday through Sunday between 11:00 AM and 5:00 PM, with special rates for families and children under 5.

The basement houses a mineral cabinet established in 2011, presenting geological specimens that connect to the regional mining heritage.
