Hotel Schloss Schweinsburg
Stillness in style
”Everything here breathes historical aesthetic and produces an entire effect which has yet to find its match in historical perfection,“ wrote a certain Dr. Alfred Lindner enthusiastically in his ”Chronicle of Schweinsburg Palace.
The 800-year-old moated castle in Neukirchen, West Saxony, still has many enthusiastic visitors who today find a modern hotel – which is a favourite for holding meetings as well as for tourist wishes – on the grounds of the old military stronghold.
Where once the Count von Crimmitschau and later the Countess of Schoenburg lazed in front of the fire, you can today enjoy a comprehensive sport and leisure programme or celebrate weddings and other family occasions in an aristocratic atmosphere. Maybe you can simply relax with a walk through the Baroque garden, or try one of the many keep-fit facilities at the hotel.
Visitors who come on a day-trip to this region, which until recently was known as an industrial region of West Saxony, can book, in the hotel, a journey of a special kind. Starting from Schweinsburg, you can ride in an original Trabant through the surrounding area which includes the car-making town of Zwickau, where until 1990 the legendary East German ”racing cardboard box“ was produced.
