Glauchau

Glauchau (German pronunciation: [ˈɡlaʊxaʊ] ; Upper Sorbian: Hłuchow, pronounced [ˈhwuxɔf]) is a town in the German federal state of Saxony, on the right bank of the Mulde, 7 miles north of Zwickau and 17 miles west of Chemnitz by rail (its train station is on the Dresden–Werdau line). It is part of the Zwickau district.

Glauchau was founded by a colony of Sorbs and Wends, and belonged to the lords of Schönburg as early as the 12th century.

Some portions of the extensive old castle date from the 12th century, and the Gottesacker church contains interesting antiquarian relics.

Glauchau is twinned with:
