Burg Stolpen
Stolpen, Sachsen
Perched on a basalt hill above the town, Stolpen grew from a castle of the Bishops of Meissen into a Renaissance palace and Saxon state fortress before partly falling into ruin. Countess Cosel was held prisoner here for fifty years and is buried on the site. Rugged basalt columns show on the hillside, a sign of the volcanic ground beneath.
