In Stützengrün is found the Weißbach, a stream which flows into the Eibenstock Reservoir.
The community lies on a hilly plateau of Eibenstock tourmaline-granite and stretches from a height of 570 up to 680 metres above sea level.
Right on Bundesstraße 169, which runs through the community, is the Bauernbarockkirche (“Baroque Farmers’ Church”), built in 1701 and now a protected monument.
Moreover, the Bergwiesenerlebnispfad (“Mountain Meadow Experience Path”), which features indigenous vegetation and Scottish Highland cattle, makes for an inviting walk.
Until the 1970s, the community was connected to the railway by the narrow-gauge line from Wilkau-Haßlau to Carlsfeld.
