Today, the Managing Director of Sachsenlotto, Frank Schwarz, and Dr. Christian Striefler, Managing Director of Schlösserland Sachsen, unveiled the new brass plaque with the lettering "Colditz Castle" in the castle chapel.

This also includes a digitization initiative that will bring Saxony's historical treasures into the Internet age with virtual tours and educational videos. Dr. Christian Striefler, Managing Director of Schlösserland Sachsen, and Frank Schwarz, Managing Director of Sachsenlotto, emphasized the importance of virtual tours. These serve not only as marketing tools, but also as interactive portals that arouse interest in real visits. The virtual tours are already very popular, as Schwarz illustrates with his own family: The anticipation of weekend excursions is significantly increased by digital explorations.
