Location description
Noschkowitz is one of the foothills of the Lommatzscher Pflege and is 16 km from Lommatzsch. Noschkowitz is located in the valley of the Rittmitzer brook, which flows into the Kleine Jahna behind the 180 m high Krötenberg near Oberwutzschwitz. Dresden is 54 km away and Leipzig is 69 km away. The area, formed as Niederaue by the water, is used exclusively for agriculture and is surrounded by fields and meadows. Only in the southeast has older trees, known as Noschkowitz wood, been preserved. The settlement structure has developed around the castle area in two directions. In a westerly direction, following the course of the Rittmitzer brook, there are Gewanne, bounded by the connecting road to Zschaitz. To the north, the settlement consists of several original manor blocks, which have been repeatedly divided and thus reduced in size.
