The Landskron Brewery is kind of off the normal tourist trail for Americans, but once I contacted the marketing department to inform them we would like to have a tour they could not have been more accommodating. The brewery is about a 10-15 minute walk from the Goerlitz train station and easy to find. Our tour including a visit to the modern visitors' center (all displays are German/English), then we had a guided tour of the production/storage facilities in the historic buildings conducted by a great guy named Ulrich (with my baby German I could understand about 40%), but hey, besides the history we are also there to sample the beer. Our tour included a buffet lunch with open tap afterwards which was a real treat (the Kellermeister Tour). Give yourself 2-3 hours for the total experience. It is worth it.

You learn a lot of a city by visiting the old graveyoards, where possible. This one is just gorgeous, with really old stones from over 100 years ago. You see rich families buries next to poorer ones and it all has the feeling of decay, you should have in a graveyard. It is a green area and also very relaxing if you just want to sit for a few minutes and read

We were fortunate that the Kaufhaus was open during the Thursday of our visit. This is an amazing building which will hopefully be preserved & developed by its new owners.
