CHÂTEAU D'OSTERSTEIN
Castle perched on a steep hill, now home to a museum presenting the history of the town of Gera and its region.
Perched on a steep hill with panoramic views over the town, Osterstien Castle is visible from afar. Its history dates back to the 12th century, although it has undergone many transformations. Initially, it was a defensive fortress built to protect the town. Over time, it was modified to serve as a residence for local princes. Destroyed during the Thirty Years' War in the 17th century, it was rebuilt. It now houses a museum presenting the history of Gera and the surrounding region.
