Konigstein

Königstein occupies an Elbe-side sandstone valley in eastern Germany. The small Saxon town lies within the Elbe Sandstone Mountains, the dramatic rock country of Saxon Switzerland, where the river has cut a broad route through cliffs, wooded slopes and flat-topped formations. Above the town stands Königstein Fortress, a vast fortified complex on a sandstone plateau that has long been one of the region’s defining landmarks. The surrounding area is closely tied to hiking, river travel and the wider Saxon Switzerland National Park landscape.
