Castle secured by system Integral

In 1168 the castle Freudenstein was constructed to protect the silver mining. In 1500 „Heinrich der Fromme“ lived there. During the following centuries the castle was used as a military base, a military hospital and a grain silo. Between 2005 and 2008 it was restored fundamentally. Today it houses the world’s greatest collection of minerals, the archives of the city Freiberg and a restaurant.
Different cylinders types of ABUS are used to secure the historical building.
