Blockhaus Brand National Park Info Point
The historic log cabin at the famous Brandaussicht is an information point for the Saxon Switzerland National Park.
The relief model by artist Irmgard Uhlig offers a bird's eye view of the national park region. Interesting information on the mountains, waters and sights depicted can be accessed via interactive screen presentations. You can also find out more about the Polenz Valley and its special features.
The "children's corner" of the exhibition entices visitors with a foray into the world of birds. Children can learn how our native bird species are also tied to very specific habitats in a playful way on the screen and with the help of animal specimens.
Right next to the log cabin, you have the unique opportunity to enjoy an outstanding view over the rocky landscape of the national park. You can only reach the view, inn and log cabin on foot - preferably from Hohnstein.
