Historically beautiful circular route from Klasdorf railway station.
This circular route leads through the historic ensemble of the museum village of Glashütte, one of the oldest preserved glassmaking settlements in Germany. Founded in 1716, today it is characterised by listed half-timbered houses and the new glassworks dating back to 1861. The trail combines lively craftsmanship with industrial history and tranquil stretches of forest: Glassblowers, potters and other craftspeople can be seen at work in the old workshops. Plaques and exhibitions commemorate Reinhold Burger, the inventor of the thermos flask, whose roots lie here. Visitors experience an atmosphere in which the smoking chimneys of the past have given way to idyllic creativity, nestled in the tranquil countryside south of Berlin.
