Geoportal Museum Steinarbeiterhaus Hohburg
The half-timbered building from 1802 presents the way of life of the stone crushers and the history of the stone industry in north-west Saxony. Stone crushing plant (in operation), locomobile, Lanz Bulldog, nostalgic filling station - these are just some of the exhibits in the outdoor area. A new Primus garage was inaugurated in 2011. Interesting exhibitions of collections, pictures and photographs can also be viewed all year round.
The "canteen" offers a cozy setting for a coffee break for groups of up to 35 people. Guided tours of the museum can be organized, as can guided tours of the quarries and technical monuments in the Wurzener Land region. Folk and Dixieland concerts are held regularly in the garden of the stone workers' house. The cultural highlight is the country music concert every year in August.
