Villa Rotschoenberg im Tal der Freiberger Mulde

Nestled in the foothills of the Ore Mountains between Meissen, Freiberg, and Dresden, the Villa Rotschönberg stretches for one kilometer along the Freiberger Mulde river, surrounded by parks and its own private forest. This former industrialist's villa boasts a long history: since 1830, it was part of a silver ore processing plant, later serving as the manor house of a cardboard factory. In 1904, all the factory buildings were rebuilt in the Art Nouveau style. The cardboard factory burned down in 1958; only the villa survived. Because such a charming yet secluded location is rare, the artist TM Rotschönberg meticulously reconstructed the building and the entire estate to the highest standards, making it available to vacationers. He crafted all the furniture himself to complement the elegance of this Art Nouveau villa. From here, you can take excursions to Saxon Switzerland or Augustusburg Castle. The signposted Mulde Cycle Path runs alongside the property, and various cycling tours starting and ending at the house can be planned along field and forest paths. Hiking trails through the landscape shaped by silver mining also invite active tourists, who can admire not only the still-pristine nature but also numerous technical monuments. Those who don't want to leave the 40,000 m² estate at all are equally well advised, as the tranquil idyll of the park and riverbank is as relaxing as swimming in the clear waters of the Mulde is invigorating. Art enthusiasts can take a multi-day printmaking course where they can learn the linocut printing technique known as "lost cut." TM Rotschönberg leads this course and provides the printing press and all materials. Guests rent the entire second floor, which has 200 m² of space and includes four bedrooms, a living room, a large kitchen, two bathrooms and a club room with a pool table, electronic organ and library.Villa Rotschoenberg im Tal der Freiberger Mulde
