The Pleiße is a river of Saxony and Thuringia, Germany. The Pleiße has its source southwest of Zwickau at Ebersbrunn, then flows through Werdau, Crimmitschau, Altenburg, and other towns and villages in Saxony and Thuringia, before flowing from the right into the White Elster in Leipzig.

Werdau (German pronunciation: [ˈvɛʁdaʊ̯] ) is a town in Germany, part of the Landkreis Zwickau in Saxony. It is situated on the river Pleiße, 8 km from Zwickau. The town was mentioned as early as 1304, and in 1398 it was purchased by Frederick, then margrave of Meissen, who afterwards became Elector of Saxony.The textile industry was the dominant industry in Werdau since the 14th century. The industrial character of the town further increased in the 20th century with the large-scale truck production by the IFA conglomerate. Both industries were not competitive after the German reunification in 1990, leading to a sharp deindustrialisation. The character of the town changed dramatically over the last 20 years after almost all factories were demolished and the characteristic East-German residential Plattenbauten were scaled back. In 1905, the city held a contest for the design of a new town hall, as the old one built in 1727 had become too small. The tower and floorplan of one design was combined with the façade of another, and ground was broken for construction on 1 August 1908. It was inaugurated on 26 April 1911, with Frederick Augustus III of Saxony in attendance.Werdau station is located on the Leipzig–Hof railway.

Hirschfeld Wildlife Park (German: Tierpark Hirschfeld) is in Voigtsgrün, part of the municipality of Hirschfeld, near Zwickau in the German Free State of Saxony. Records by Lady Martha von Arnim (née von Schlegell) prove that the site and its stand of trees have been protected for centuries. Maps from 1870 show that there was already a wildlife enclosure at this site. It belonged to Lord Alexander von Arnim, who kept deer here. In 1890, a hunting lodge was built in the enclosure that still exists today and is referred to as the "log cabin" (Blockhaus). In 1909, his brother, Arno von Arnim, inherited Voigtsgrün and thus the animal enclosure too. In 1956, the enclosure, which covered an area of about 6 hectares, was turned into a wildlife park. The first livestock included red deer, red fox and badger. Today, the area of the park has been enlarged and contains about 600 animals of 90 species. These include raccoon dogs, wild boar, bears, gray wolves, pot-bellied pigs, waders, Heidschnucken, raccoons, porcupines, mouflon, bison, snowy owls, monkeys and ferrets. The area also includes trees up to 450 years old. In addition to the animal enclosures, the park also has a petting zoo, restaurants, a minigolf course and a children's playground. Visitors are allowed to bring their dogs to the park.
