Oberwiesenthal is Germany's highest town, situated at an elevation of 914 meters in the Ore Mountains (Erzgebirge) of Saxony, close to the Czech border. This historic mountain resort, founded in the 16th century, developed initially as a silver mining settlement.

Today, Oberwiesenthal is known as a popular winter sports destination, with skiing facilities including the Fichtelberg cable car, which leads to the region's highest peak. The town maintains strong cultural ties to the Ore Mountains' traditional crafts, particularly wooden toy making and Christmas decorations. Throughout the year, visitors can experience the local mining heritage and traditional German mountain culture through various historical sites and cultural events.

The town's architecture reflects its mining past and mountain lifestyle, with characteristic timber-framed houses and historic buildings dotting its landscape.
