Langburkersdorf Castle, located at the western entrance to the town, has a history of many changes of ownership. In 1423 the manor was first named as the property of Leuthold von Luttitz, governor of Hohnstein. Georg von Wehse acquired the house in Burkersdorf in 1564. The foundation stone for the new house was laid in 1611, after which it remained in the von Wehse family ownership for a long time. Baron von Stieglitz bought the castle in 1870 and used it as a hunting residence. 1906 visited King of Saxony Friedrich August III. "Burkersdorf Castle" with its huge entourage.

In 1925 the entire property was sold to the State Insurance Saxony. After major structural changes, they built a retirement home there. The manor supplied the Hohwaldklinik with agricultural products. It was a rest home during the 1930s and 40s. Between 1947 and 1966, the castle was used to carry out follow-up treatments for patients with tuberculosis at the Hohwaldklinik. [2]

In 1966 the “Council of the District” became the owner. In 1981 renovation of the castle began. The outer facade was renewed in 1991. In 1992 the property was transferred to the state insurance company, and in 1997 it was sold to Schloss-Park-Entwicklungsgesellschaft mbH. In 2000 the municipality of Hohwald acquired the castle and the property. Since the incorporation of Hohwald in 2007, the castle has belonged to the city of Neustadt in Saxony.
