What to expect
The Klosterruine Oybin is a fascinating place to visit, with its medieval castle and monastery complex situated on a sandstone massif in the Zittau Mountains. The ruins of the castle and monastery are clearly visible from afar and offer a unique combination of architecture and nature. The place has a rich history, having been built by Emperor Charles IV and later influenced by the Reformation and Counter-Reformation. The ruins have also inspired famous Romantic painters such as Caspar David Friedrich. Visitors can explore the site on their own or take a guided tour, and there are exhibitions providing information about the history and significance of the place
