Das Eigentum — Zur Scheune
Zur Scheune feels like a solid, no-nonsense base in central Zwickau – part former barn conversion, part modern guesthouse. The lobby mixes exposed beams with clean Nordic-style furniture, giving it a relaxed, practical vibe. It suits solo travellers or couples who want simple comfort and direct access to the old town without paying for countryside charm.
Chroniken von Zwickau
Zwickau grew rich from silver mining in the 15th–16th centuries, leaving a legacy of Gothic brick churches and ornate Renaissance townhouses. In the 19th century it became the cradle of the Saxon automobile industry – the first Horch and Audi cars were built here, and the iconic Trabant rolled out from the Sachsenring plant. Post-reunification, the city reinvented itself as a service and engineering hub while preserving its compact medieval core. Today its cultural identity balances automotive heritage with a thriving live-music scene, still under the radar for most foreign visitors.
