Hard to believe that in a natural paradise you suddenly stand before an old ironworks and a fortress tower. No other remains of the fortress have survived.

Unfortunately, it was not possible to climb the tower, one would surely have had a good view.

The photo shows the Spree River just before the Spreewehrmühle (mill). Many more birds can be seen from the Mauster observation tower or the inlet structure.
