Some personal recommendations
Arts & Culture
Charlie is the local cinema and is located next to the city hall. The cinema is surprisingly good for such a small city, and has both dolby atmos sound and impressive 3d experiences.

Sightseeing
The porcelain factory located next to the river is a beautiful place to visit, it has a museum with old artifact form the history of the factory. And it also has a factory outlet with good prices and a lot of different items. In the summer it is also a small restaurant outside of the factory.
