About this work

Sächsische Schweiz (Saxon Switzerland) is a former district (Landkreis) in the German state of Saxony and also the name for the region in the Elbsandsteingebirge between Dresden and the Czech border. Here we see the 'Bastei Bridge', a natural wonder of several prominent rock points with a man-made stone bridge.
