Eibenstock

The landscape around Eibenstock is a high, densely wooded stretch of the Ore Mountains, which has shaped both the town’s hillside form and local work long connected with forestry and mining. The Zwickauer Mulde is impounded nearby to form the Eibenstock Reservoir, a drinking-water reservoir serving parts of Saxony. During the 16th-century mining expansion, Eibenstock developed into a regional centre and later became associated with embroidery and textile production, crafts still tied to its identity. Today, marked walking and cycling routes lead through the surrounding upland forests. Explore nearby webcam locations that provide complementary perspectives on Eibenstock and the Ore Mountains.
