This video takes the viewer on a walk around the back [the east and north sides] of Colditz Castle. Starting below the former British and Dutch quarters, the roadway goes along past the northeast turret [not shown on the maps in the books at all!] and along behind the Chapel. There is then a view of the western face of the Kellerhaus [cellar house] block, and the video finishes with the views over the northern and western precipices and a view across the river to the meadow where the glider would have landed.
