The bright red Rochlitz porphyry is known far beyond the region's borders. The Seelitz adventure tour - on the heels of the porphyry shows stone witnesses of the past.

The Rochlitz porphyry was and is the source of millstones, crosses for murder and atonement, post pillars, signposts, boundary stones, window and door surrounds and bridges, many of which can still be seen today. The Seelitz adventure tour is around 13 kilometers long and leads through the southern part of the municipality of Seelitz and the south-western part of the large district town of Rochlitz.

The starting and finishing point for the circular route is the Mühlplatz in Rochlitz. However, it is also possible to start the tour at any other point. Running through the idyllic landscape of the Rochlitz Mulde Valley, it combines architecture with the beauty of nature.
