Vogtland Elster Mountains

The Vogtland is also often referred to as the "sounding holiday region", because musical instrument making has a long tradition here. For 350 years, all kinds of string, plucked, wood and metal wind instruments as well as hand and mouth organs have been built in the Musikwinkel, which enjoy the reputation of the highest quality. Museums and open workshops allow a look behind the scenes. But space history can also be experienced here. Nature and culture lovers will get their money's worth in the beautiful landscape and numerous museums, as will hikers and cyclists. Numerous hiking and cycling trails run through the map section and lead to health resorts, ruins, castles and palaces.
