Small and large monuments, battlefields of 1813, and many places of Sorbian origin, whose names often end with "-itz" or "-schütz", are the focus of this charming route
On this route, you learn a good piece of the history of Bautzen and Upper Lusatia. From Schützenplatz, along Am Stadtwall, where still a good part of the outer city wall can be seen, it goes northeast towards Schafberg, with whose visit the route can be extended (Napoleon monument and prehistoric burial site - Hügelgrab monument), further on to Niederkaina and Kreckwitz you reach two monuments from 1813, when units of Napoleon's Marshal Ney attacked Blücher's Prussians here and quite simply forgot to complete the encirclement of the allies.
Past the airfield that has existed since the 1930s, it continues to Baschütz, Zieschütz, and Jenkwitz, where a detour to the Monarch Hill with monument is worthwhile. Here, Prussia's king and Russia's czar watched the Napoleon troops and perhaps even "him" himself on Schafberg opposite. After Rabitz on the "Findlingsweg" to the idyllic nature park with a restaurant and the nearby observatory, it eventually continues past Germany's only completely preserved Hussar barracks back to the city.
